My insomnia was a result of a magnesium deficiency (also vitamin d)
- huachimingo 5y agoThis can be true, last check with the doctor about the lungs revealed I had vitamin D deficiency. But I've been always sleepy, no matter what number of hours I sleep. I guess I have to praise the sun more often.
- rapsey 5y agoVitamin D hugely increased the quality of sleep I got. But interestingly not actually taking D3 supplements, using a vitamin D lamp got the job done.
- fighterpilot 5y agoInteresting, any skin cancer risk with that?
- rapsey 5y agoThe wavelength is chosen to minimize the risk. The lamp is used to treat skin problems and the amount of time for that use is quite a bit longer than just to get some vitamin d from it.
- joncrane 5y agoDoes timing of the dose matter? Meaning do you take the supplements right before bed, in the morning, etc?
- rapsey 5y agoYes it does. Before bed.
