Magnesium & B6

I ordered these for my girlfriend, so the following review reflects her experience. She’s vegan and, while she generally eats a fairly balanced diet, normally takes a range of supplements alongside.The recommended dose is one a day and she’s been taking one almost every day for about a month now. They’re not the biggest tablets we’ve seen, but I’d say larger than average. She’s not had any difficulties swallowing them though.According to the blurb, these vitamin/mineral pills help with bones, muscles, hormones, and energy levels, which make them sound like miracle tablets. She was hoping they’d help with period-related hormones and pain, which are supposed to be benefits of magnesium and vitamin B6, although these pills are not specifically marketed for this purpose. As I said, she’s only been taking them around a month so far, so perhaps it’s too early to say anything conclusive as yet. She says she didn’t notice any real difference before or during her last period, but felt that she recovered a bit quicker than usual afterwards, which may or may not be down to these supplements. She also takes other supplements containing vitamin B6 anyway, but she’s been doing that a while, so these have been the only recent change.Overall, she says they aren’t miracle tablets, but did think they were good. She’ll carry on with the rest of the bottle (which should last another couple of months) certainly. Beyond that, she’ll continue taking these substances, as she has before, but they’re already in other supplements that she takes. Whether she’d buy this particular brand again would largely come down to price and convenience when shopping for supplements.

As a vegetarian I am always on the lookout for new products that may help me to meet my dietary requirements, so I was pleased to be invited to try these new tablets by Cheeky Nutrition. Magnesium is fairly abundant in nature, and is found in foods like almonds and spinach, however it is one of the essential elements so it is important to make sure you get enough of it. Insufficient Magnesium in the diet may have an adverse effect on migraines, muscle spasms, high blood pressure, osteoporosis and anxiety disorders, amongst other side effects, so a dietary supplement may be useful for some people. These tablets by Cheeky Nutrition also include Vitamin B6 and seem to be of good quality with each one containing 150mg Magnesium (40% NRV) plus 25mg Vitamin B6 (1786% NRV) with anti-caking and bulking agents in a product that is suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Each bottle contains 90 tablets which, with a recommended intake of one per day, gives a three month supply for a around twelve pounds currently from Amazon. As with all dietary supplements the results will vary from user to user and may benefit some but not others. However, if you are looking for an easy way to add more Magnesium and B6 to you diet then these tablets from Cheeky Nutrition are a convenient way of doing so in a good-quality UK-made product.

My wife decided to start taking more food supplements to help her with different ailments - fatigue, anxiety, lack of sleep, etc.Magnesium is one of those supplements that have become more trendy and therefore, it can be difficult to measure its effectiveness (if everybody is saying that it is brilliant, it must be true!). Saying that, my wife has noticed that she is sleeping better and feels less tired after taking these for about 6 weeks. As with any other supplements, the results will vary per person and you might also have to be patient as the results may not be apparent that quickly.They are a bit chalky for my wife's taste but I guess it is better than the powder being covered in a plastic capsule...

The taking of vitamins is a personal thing and whether you need particular things in your diet due to deficiencies or whether you just want to boost particular things because you think it’s a good thing is entirely your choice. One should be careful not to take too much of anything, so understanding what your body needs is perhaps the single most important thing to bear in mind here.Personally, I like to occasionally boost my vitamin B intake as I don’t have much fruit juice in my diet, and magnesium can be good for bone structure - I have not yet broken any bones but do a lot of sport and gym so want to be sure that my inner structure is sound - but I’m not going to overdo it.These tablets from ‘Cheeky Nutrition’ provide 25mg of B6 and 150mg of Magnesium per tablet.They come in a simple screw-top plastic jar with no anti-child screw mechanism or anything.The tablet dimensions are 1.6mm x 0.8mm x 0.5mm if that’s of interest to people that struggle with certain sizes of pill. They have no particular taste or coating that I could discern, and I personally don’t find them difficult to swallow.

Magnesium is said to be good for hormone regulation as well as supporting bone and muscle function, and B6 is one of the B Complex vitamins with multi benefits ranging from fatigue, helping the immune system to skin rashes. Vitamin B6 is also helpful for vegetarians as the main foods in which it is found are meats such as pork, turkey and beef steaks.This Cheeky Nutrition bottle contains 90 tablets and at the recommended dose of one a day, this bottle will last you three months. The tablets themselves are white and chalky and don't have any smooth coating. They're not too large to take but I do find that they don't go down first time every time – have plenty of water to hand.To be perfectly honest, I haven't noticed any difference to my body, mind, sleep pattern or anything else. Maybe I have sufficient of both magnesium and vitamin B6, or they keep you healthy in the background without you knowing or realising it.
