> Have you a brand you prefer?I take Swanson magnesium l-threonate. It doesn't matter what brand you get, because both Swanson and LEF get it from Magceutics. One capsule is plenty for me, but my brain is very sensitive to many supplements and drugs. I took two capsules for a few days, and my brain felt numb. Someone mentioned on Psychobabble Medication that he's taking five capsules! Its main benefit is that I'm sleeping more deeply. Not longer, just deeper. I got a bottle for my mother, because her insomnia has been worse since last summer. She says her sleep has improved since she started taking it. Here's another site about it:
