Magnesium for Menopause is a magnesium supplement formulated for women in perimenopause and menopause. Each serving contains 300 mg of magnesium, as magnesium bisglycinate chelate and magnesium oxide, to support restful sleep, normal muscle relaxation, and a calm mood. Made for the nights your mind and your body both refuse to switch off.

Morphus Research

In our survey of 2,156 women, 65% used or considered supplements for better sleep, with magnesium and melatonin the most commonly mentioned.

Who it's for

Adult women in perimenopause or menopause looking for daily nutritional support for restful sleep, normal muscle relaxation, and a calm mood as part of a balanced diet.

What's inside (per serving)

  • 300 mg magnesium as magnesium bisglycinate chelate (often searched as magnesium glycinate, magnesium bound to the amino acid glycine) and a small amount of magnesium oxide. No added sugars.

Formulated to help support

  • Restful sleep
  • Normal muscle relaxation and normal muscle function
  • A calm mood
  • Bone health (magnesium contributes to the maintenance of normal bones)
  • Normal nervous system function, the wiring behind muscle signaling and settling down at night

What the research shows (and what it doesn't)

We want to be straight with you about the science, because a lot of magnesium marketing isn't.

  • Sleep: A US study followed 3,964 adults over two decades. The people who got the most magnesium from food and supplements were less likely to sleep under 7 hours a night than the people who got the least (Zhang et al., Sleep, 2022). That's a link, not proof. People who get more magnesium may also eat better or move more, and the researchers themselves say trials are needed to show cause and effect.
  • Muscle: In a study of 2,570 women aged 18 to 79, the women who ate the most magnesium had more muscle mass and more leg power than the women who ate the least (Welch et al., Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2016). It was a snapshot in time, so it shows the two go together, not that one causes the other.

Both studies measured how much magnesium people were already getting, not what happened when they started a supplement. What they do tell us is that magnesium is tied up with how your body rests and how your muscles work, and roughly half of adults get less than recommended from food (NIH Office of Dietary Supplements). That's why we make it. It isn't a promise of what a capsule will do for you.

How to take it, how it fits with your other supplements and the rest of your questions are in the tabs below.

Stress and magnesium seem to be linked both ways.

A research review describes a two-way link: stress may raise how much magnesium your body loses, and lower magnesium is associated with feeling more stressed (Pickering et al., Nutrients, 2020). It pulls together earlier studies rather than testing a supplement, so treat it as a link worth knowing about, not a proven cycle.

Why it matters in midlife.

Magnesium supports restful sleep, normal muscle relaxation, a calm mood and energy metabolism, and a lot of us aren't getting enough from food right when sleep, stress and our bodies all start acting up.

Why this formula.

Most of our formula is magnesium bisglycinate chelate, magnesium bound to the amino acid glycine. Glycine is also a building block of glutathione, an antioxidant that helps protect your cells. We add a small amount of magnesium oxide too, which draws water into the gut and is often used to support regularity.

Magnesium 300mg
(as TRAACs® Magnesium Bisglycinate Chelate, Buffered Magnesium Bisglycinate Chelate, and Magnesium Oxide)

Other Ingredients: Cellulose (capsule), vegetable stearate

*Product labels and packaging may contain additional information. Always read labels, warnings, and directions before use.

Take 2 capsules a day. When you take them is up to you.

  • At night: 30 to 60 minutes before bed, as part of your wind-down. This is when most women take it.
  • In the morning: if a calm mood through the day is your main focus.
  • Split the dose: one capsule in the morning and one at night.

Pick a time you'll actually stick with. The habit matters more than the hour. If your stomach is sensitive, start with 1 capsule or take it with food.

When should I take it?

Most women take it 30 to 60 minutes before bed as part of their wind-down. You can also take it in the morning or split the dose. See How to Use.

Is it OK to take every day?

Yes, at the label serving of 2 capsules (300 mg). Check with your healthcare provider first if you're pregnant, nursing, take medication or have kidney problems.

I have a sensitive stomach. Will it upset it?

Most people do fine with it, but the magnesium oxide in our formula can loosen stools in some people (NIH Office of Dietary Supplements). If that happens, try 1 capsule at a time or take it with food. Stop if it doesn't agree with you.

What types of magnesium are in it?

Mostly magnesium bisglycinate chelate (TRAACs®, the form often searched as magnesium glycinate), plus a small amount of magnesium oxide. Magnesium oxide draws water into the gut, which is why it is often used to support regular bowel movements (Mori et al., Journal of Neurogastroenterology and Motility, 2019, a trial that used much more magnesium oxide than our formula).

Can I take it with other Morphus supplements?

Yes. One thing to know: Sleepus also contains magnesium, so if you take both, add up the magnesium on the two labels and keep it within the limit in the next question.

Can I mix it with other magnesium supplements?

You can, but add up the totals first. The NIH upper limit for magnesium from supplements is 350 mg a day for adults (NIH Office of Dietary Supplements), and one serving of Morphus Magnesium is 300 mg. Check with your healthcare provider before going above that.

Can I take it with vitamin D?

Yes. Your body needs magnesium to process vitamin D. In one randomized trial, magnesium supplements nudged vitamin D levels up in people whose levels started lower, and down in people whose levels started higher (Dai et al., American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2018).

Where is it made?

In the USA.

Can men take it?

Yes.

Any sleep tips?

Yes. Here are 15 tips to sleep better in menopause.

Worth every penny

I have taken magnesium supplements before but I really felt better results with this particular product. My perimenopause and menopause has caused me to have muscle pain and magnesium is a recommended supplement to battle the symptom. In addition I have noticed a better quality of sleep, even Thai take the magnesium in the morning. I guess I’m overall more relaxed with this

Thank you so much Mary. We love hearing that!! We hear that a lot about our magnesium. We are so happy it works so well for you. We appreciate your feedback. ~ Andrea, Cofounder, Morphus

This Magnesium is AMAZING

I started taking this magnesium to help me stay asleep. And it has made SUCH a difference. My body tolerates it well. And now when I fall asleep, I stay asleep or if I wake up to use the bathroom, I’m able to fall asleep again. So my sleep deprived nights have dialed down from a 9 to a 1. I take this magnesium every day now. I will not go without it!

Hi Nicolé, we're thrilled to hear that our magnesium has made such a positive difference in your sleep! Thank you for sharing your experience and for being a valued customer. Wishing you many restful nights ahead! ~ Andrea, Co-founder Morphus.
