However, according to experts, it should not be seen as a &#8220;miracle&#8221; solution, especially for anxiety and sleep problems.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding anxiety, studies show that magnesium may have a mild effect on people with mild or temporary anxiety. However, the scientific evidence remains limited and inconclusive. Specialists emphasize that in cases of severe anxiety, professional medical treatment is necessary and supplements are not sufficient.<\/p>\n<p>Even for sleep, magnesium can easily help people who have difficulties due to stress, but there is no strong evidence that it significantly improves sleep disorders. Most studies show only small or inconsistent improvements.<\/p>\n<p>Daily recommendations for magnesium are around 310\u2013360 mg for women and 400\u2013420 mg for men, and many people do not get the required amount from diet alone. Food sources include green vegetables, nuts, seeds, avocado and dark chocolate.<\/p>\n<p>Experts also recommend caution when using supplements. Forms such as magnesium glycinate are considered more suitable for anxiety, while some other forms have lower absorption or are used for specific purposes. They advise that supplements should not exceed recommended doses and be used only after consulting a doctor, especially for people receiving other medical treatments.<\/p>\n<hr style=\"margin:30px 0\">\n<p style=\"font-size:13px;color:#666\">Source: <strong>prizrenpost<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Magnesium is an important mineral for the normal functioning of the body and affects several processes such as muscle function, blood pressure, blood sugar control and bone health.
