Sleepyhead Pressure data question

I know this is probably a silly and obvious question, but when you don't have anyone in person to really talk to about this who is on cpap as well, I have to come here to ask..... But when I look at my machine pressure chart thru the night, my data looks like a camels hump.....meaning, the machine t...

Re: RLS: Magnesium Type?

Not promoting anything.....take the info how you want.....I will say I started taking magnesium malate in the day time because the other forms would make me tired....the malate form did not....as a matter of fact, I had a bit more energy, a little less pain in some of my joints....I love to lift wei...

Re: RLS: Magnesium Type?

Magnesium is bound with different carries for absorption....what they are bound with can have their own benefits etc......Bottom line, if you take in enough magnesium, it should help with RLS, no matter which kind..... 1. Easiest form to try is magnesium citrate....absorbs well....its bound with cit...

Re: Aerophagia issues

MikeBear, what have you done to try to fix the issue......I will say, I have a massive headache this am....my guess is, a lack of oxygen intake.....I have not had a headache like this before......and yes, stomach lining irritation......which is causing ringing in the ears for sure....
