Magnesium Threonate Sleep Quality Randomized TrialResults Compared to the placebo, Magtein ® was associated with greater improvements in overall cognitive performance as measured by the NIH Total Cognition Composite ( p = 0.043), with larger treatment effects on working and episodic memory.2Lopresti AL (2026)The effects of magnesium L-threonate (Magtein<sup>®</sup>) on cognitive performance and sleep quality in adults: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.
Magnesium Threonate Sleep Quality Randomized TrialBased on data from the sleep tracking ring, there were no group differences in sleep outcomes, although there was a greater reduction in HR ( p = 0.030) and an increase in HRV ( p = 0.036), a physiological marker of stress reduction and improved autonomic balance.2Lopresti AL (2026)The effects of magnesium L-threonate (Magtein<sup>®</sup>) on cognitive performance and sleep quality in adults: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.
Magnesium Threonate Sleep Quality Randomized TrialConclusion The results from this study suggest Magtein ® supplementation for 6 weeks improves overall cognition, cognitive age, working memory, reaction time, HR, HRV, and some subjective, but not objective measures of sleep in healthy adults with self-reported dissatisfied sleep.2Lopresti AL (2026)The effects of magnesium L-threonate (Magtein<sup>®</sup>) on cognitive performance and sleep quality in adults: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.
Magnesium Threonate Sleep Quality Randomized TrialThe purpose of this two-arm, 6-week, parallel-group, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was to examine the effects of magnesium L-threonate (Magtein ® ) supplementation on cognitive performance, cognitive age, sleep quality, and selected physiological indicators in adults.2Lopresti AL (2026)The effects of magnesium L-threonate (Magtein<sup>®</sup>) on cognitive performance and sleep quality in adults: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.
Magnesium Threonate Sleep Quality Randomized TrialFailure to meet the recommended 7-9 hours of restful sleep per night is known to increase the risk of several health conditions, reason why regular and adequate sleep should be seen as a priority instead of an unnecessary commodity easily traded as required by the commitments of our busy lives.4Conti F (2026)Dietary Protocols to Promote and Improve Restful Sleep: A Narrative Review.
Magnesium Threonate Sleep Quality Randomized TrialWhile both the quantity and the quality of sleep can be largely improved with relatively straightforward practices dictated by good sleep hygiene, emerging research suggests that dietary and supplementation protocols focused on certain foods, nutrients, and biochemical compounds with sleep-promoting properties can act as subsidiary sleep aids in complementing these behavioral changes.4Conti F (2026)Dietary Protocols to Promote and Improve Restful Sleep: A Narrative Review.
Magnesium Threonate Sleep Quality Randomized TrialThe scope of this narrative review is to summarize the available evidence on the potential benefits of selected nutraceuticals in the context of circadian rhythm and sleep disturbances, namely melatonin, magnesium, omega-3 fatty acids, tart cherry juice, kiwifruit, apigenin, valerian root, L-theanine, glycine, ashwagandha, myoinositol, Rhodiola rosea, and phosphatidylserine.4Conti F (2026)Dietary Protocols to Promote and Improve Restful Sleep: A Narrative Review.
Magnesium Threonate Sleep Quality Randomized TrialHumans spend approximately one third of their life asleep but, as counterintuitive as it may sound, sleep is far from being a quiet state of inactivity.4Conti F (2026)Dietary Protocols to Promote and Improve Restful Sleep: A Narrative Review.
