pros and cons
This is an interesting supplement that I've been taking on and off for a couple years. The thing is, it's the only thing I've tried that can calm down my heart palpitations; I'm prone to anxiety attacks and the palpitations cause me even more anxiety so as long as I can get rid of those I have an easier time calming myself down and the attack ending quick. So, for that reason this is a godsend for me. However, unfortunately it comes with some weird side effects for me. It affects me mentally to the point where I feel like I'm almost drunk (but not a good drunk), or sick, like everything is very slowed down and I almost feel like everything is going in slow motion. It's really strange. I'm not sure what this means or what I can do about it, I've experimented with different dosages, added sea salt to the water like the box says but I can't get rid of that unusual symptom. I am really sensitive to supplements in general so I generally try to avoid them and have paradoxical reactions to a lot of things (other magnesium supplements I've tried have actually made my palpitations worse, or brought on palpitations even when I was feeling fine, so maybe my body just has a weird sensitivity to this), so it probably won't apply to you, but just putting it out there.<br /><br />To the people complaining about the taste, I really don't get it...it just tastes like slightly mineralized/salted water. You're supposed to dilute it in a big glass of water so you really shouldn't have a strong taste at all. I actually like the taste, but it's very subtle.
