How does Magnesium Glycinate help you sleep?

Magnesium glycinate is often recommended as one of the best forms of magnesium for supporting sleep. Here’s how it helps:

🧠 1. Calms the nervous system

  • Magnesium plays a key role in regulating neurotransmitters like GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), which is your brain’s main calming chemical.
  • Higher GABA activity helps reduce racing thoughts and promotes relaxation before bed. 

💪 2. Relaxes muscles and reduces tension

  • Magnesium helps regulate calcium in muscles, allowing them to relax after contraction.
  • This eases physical tension, restlessness, or “tightness” that can interfere with falling asleep. 

🩺 3. Reduces stress and cortisol

  • Magnesium helps regulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which controls your stress response.
  • Stable cortisol levels in the evening make it easier for your body to shift into rest mode. 

🌙 4. Supports melatonin production

  • Magnesium is involved in the body’s production of melatonin, the hormone that sets your sleep-wake cycle.
  • This makes it easier to fall asleep and maintain a steady sleep rhythm.

Cramps, RLS, and more healing properties

🦵 1. Leg cramps & muscle aches

  • Magnesium helps regulate calcium and potassium movement in and out of muscle cells. Without enough magnesium, muscles can contract but not relax properly → leading to cramps or spasms.
  • Supplementing with magnesium glycinate restores balance, making muscle contractions smoother and reducing painful tightness.

💤 2. Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS)

  • RLS is often linked to nervous system overactivity and low dopamine signaling.
  • Magnesium calms the nervous system by boosting GABA activity and lowering excitatory signals, reducing that “creepy-crawly” urge to move the legs.
  • The glycine component adds another calming effect, improving relaxation before bedtime (when RLS tends to flare).
     

💥 3. General aches and pains

  • Magnesium has an anti-inflammatory effect, lowering markers like CRP (C-reactive protein).
  • It also relaxes tight muscles and stiff connective tissues, which can cause daily aches if they remain contracted.
  • By improving circulation and easing tension, magnesium can reduce overall discomfort.

🤕 4. Headaches & migraines

  • Migraines are strongly tied to magnesium deficiency. Magnesium helps by:
    • Relaxing blood vessels (preventing spasm and constriction that trigger headaches).
    • Reducing release of pain-transmitting neurotransmitters.
    • Supporting serotonin balance, which influences migraine onset.
  • Magnesium glycinate is absorbed well and less likely to cause digestive upset than other forms, making it a good choice for migraine prevention.
     

✅ Why glycinate helps more than some other forms:

  • Highly bioavailable (your body absorbs it well).
  • Glycine itself supports muscle relaxation and has a mild pain-soothing effect on the nervous system.

How can sleep butter help you?

Help your kiddos get a restful sleep

 

  • By calming the nervous system and relaxing muscles, magnesium glycinate can help children fall asleep faster and stay asleep more soundly.
     
  • The glycine part has its own calming effects, which supports deeper, more restorative rest.
     


Circulation

 Yes, magnesium glycinate can be beneficial for circulation because magnesium helps relax blood vessels (vasodilation), which improves blood flow. It also helps regulate blood pressure and may prevent arterial plaque buildup, both of which are important for a healthy cardiovascular system and circulation. Magnesium glycinate is a well-absorbed form of magnesium that supports nerve and muscle function, which is crucial for directing blood flow.  

Stress Reduction

 Glycine, the amino acid in magnesium glycinate, promotes relaxation and is an inhibitory neurotransmitter itself. 

Magnesium helps level out and decrease cortisol, the body's primary stress hormone. 

.It helps keep the brain's "on" switches (excitatory glutamate) and "off" switches (inhibitory GABA) in balance, which can prevent overfiring that contributes to anxiety.

Sleep Butter has worked magic!

Has helped my troublesome restless legs!

Has helped my troublesome restless legs!

I found Hunt & Homestead at a Farmer's Market in Breckenridge, Colorado.  I purchased it on a whim and now can't imagine not having it.  I have slept like a baby since I started using it.  As directed, I apply a pea sized amount to the bottom of my feet at bedtime.  I have not only slept soundly but longer as well.  Will be repurchasing this product over and over.
