Avoid Taking These Supplements at Night

Avoid Taking These Supplements at Night to optimize what you are getting out of your vitamin and mineral supplements. If you’re using supplements like b12, magnesium, vitamin A, omega 3s, L-Phenylalanine, taurine, the timing of when you take these supplements can be very important.
When should I take my supplements is an important topic covered here. So if you’re wondering which supplements should I take at bedtime and which supplements should I take in the morning, it’s important to understand the optimal timing of different types of vitamins, minerals, and nutritional supplements.

I'm happy I came upon this video. I have been taking Magnesium for a while and my sleep was getting worse. I'm thinking it can work for a while until you become unbalanced.

I think the type of magnesium matters also (e.g magnesium glycinate vs magnesium malate vs magnesium citrate vs magnesium taurate, etc).

What’s considered nighttime? I take several of these around 6pm and have zero problem with sleep.

[@KickItNaturally]

6pm is nighttime, but again, how it affects you and your sleep would depend on your chemistry. that is why there is so much confusion.

[@jcojrDTG]

there are 7 kinds od mags take Glycinate for sleep, others for energy like threonate and others like oxide for digestive and hydration

Different magnesiums do different things, but all are pro-catabolic. this video explains: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKOnn2yIgJlmmcU

Your best bet could be to go through our totally free digestion course because that will walk you through running simple self-tests you can run at home to get an idea of what imbalances can be creating trouble, and what steps would help you correct them. That way you can lift minerals all the time instead of just doing it at night in a way that works against your body's natural rhythms.

Taurine puts me to sleep as well as magnesium. When I can't go to sleep that's what I use. I tried taking taurine multiple times during the daytime and it puts me to sleep within 60 to 90 minutes.

@@KickItNaturally Since I can't fall asleep easily (3-4 hour to get there) I am assuming, even though i'm tired, that my body has a catabolic inbalance for at least the 3-4 hours it takes me to get to sleep. In your fat book, I did not see any references to glycine or b6. Would they be catabolic or anabolic?

I feel like sleep better if I have magnesium at night certain forms of magnesium are better than others at night?

[@KickItNaturally]

All forms of magnesium are still pro-catabolic. This video explains why magnesium can help SOME people sleep better and explains the steps you can take to improve the underlying cause and then work with your body instead of against it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKOnn2yIgJlmmcU

[@Carnivore_Resident]

Makes sense, I haven't try magnesium in the morning, I'm dealing with insomnia that I can't fix during my carnivore journey.

[@KickItNaturally]

It's actually common with carnivore for a variety of reasons. Doesn't mean carnivore is bad. I'm a fan. But this video might help you understand the imbalances it can magnify in the wrong person using it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpm6q4VmoN1lp68 and this video explains how some of those imbalalnces can create insomnia:kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXKQZ4R4jLKKjNk

I don't.

What supplements do help with sleep?

[@KickItNaturally]

It really depends on what is actually causing the insomnia.

Thank you so much. I switched to taking my magnesium to the morning & it greatly reduced my insomnia. Very grateful for the good advice

[@KickItNaturally]

So glad it was helpful. Insomnia is the worst. If you still have trouble, check out this video that talks about other possible issues that can restrict sleep too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXKQZ4R4jLKKjNk

[@sonrog8877]

Thank you I will check it out. For now I believe my underlying problem is. B1 deficiency. Many serious symptoms which have improved 70% by taking thiamine TTFD. This seems to be a widespread problem in the population. If you could make some more videos addressing this problem I think it would benefit many people.

[@JohnnyRay920]

I take magnesium because I get horrible foot and leg cramps at night. Not really helping though. I've tried taking melatonin to help me sleep and it has the opposite effect. Also, some people say to take vitamin D3 at night to improve sleep, but it has the opposite effect on me. Some people say to take taurine at night to improve sleep. I take some at night. Haven't decided yet if it makes a difference.

[@LB-sw2km]

Maybe potassium?

Potassium is pro-anabolic, but that doen'st mean it's right for everyone to take it at night.

[@MyBeautifulHealth]

What kind of magnesium do you use? Are you taking K2? Nattokinase?

[@followthepinkline]

I take magnesium in the morning and i feel great, by night time, am ready for bed and sleep great. Im really active too, daily gym, daily outdoors walking etc. In the past, when i took magnesium at night to sleep, it had a reverse effect on me like rebound insomnia, the same side effect that melatonin has on me.

yes, they can have different affects, but they are all pro-catabolic

[@joesky6245]

No, there's no general need to avoid taking omega-3s at night. In fact, there might be some benefits to evening consumption: Omega-3s: Generally considered safe for nighttime. They might even improve sleep quality and reduce inflammation. Vitamin A: Best avoided at night. High doses can interfere with sleep. Magnesium: Great for nighttime! It can promote relaxation and potentially improve sleep and heart health. B12: Generally safe at night, but some people report feeling jittery. Take it earlier in the day if that's the case for you. L-tyrosine: Intended to increase alertness and focus, so nighttime is not ideal. Take it in the morning. Taurine: Generally safe at night. Some research suggests it might even improve sleep quality.

Can there be a scenario where different systems of the body are in different states? For example, the brain is in a catabolic state but the kidneys are in a anabolic state? Would explain "wired but tired"

I imagine that is possible, but not a viewpoint we usually take. It's usually more of a systemic state.

@@KickItNaturally I did not tell you a few facts that have a bearing on my taking the 100mg potassium tablet and the 200mg Magnesium Bisglycinate. I am on a 4MG Perimdopril and 80MG Furosemide daily medications. Because I learn that Furosemide depletes electrolytes, and because I take the them both together after supper ( approx 7 pm ), I have to wait until the Furosemide has done its thing. Usually around 11.30 pm or so. I then take the 200mg Magnesium tablet and the 100mg ( timed release ) Potassium tablet, last thing at night…midnight. The heart racing ( which I hear perfectly as I have pulsate tinnitus ) is no longer an issue and I sleep the night through. I am on a rather strict low carbo.diet…( Dr.Gundry’s diet.) So my diet contributes much to reducing my blood pressure ( my doctor had to cut back on my perindopril to half the previous dose, but I suspect that the Furosemide is too high ( my legs, which I wear elastic stockings all day, are almost back to normal particularly in the mornings.) Thank you for all you do, and this may explain and allow you to review my earlier comments. They are presently monitoring me for a skipping pulse rate which starts every day immediately after lunch and continues until late evening 9pm ( approx).
