Recess Mood Magnesium Powder, Gradient Berry, 28 Servings

Another great product from Recess. I truly love winding down at the end of the night with this product. It taste good, I have it on ice and enjoy 1 hour before bed. I sleep well and uninterupted. It helps calm my brain after a busy shift.

Tastes nice, not too sweet or strong. I think it is effective to provide calming. Will buy more flavors to try!

This is so effective in calming my restless leg issues. Prices point I wish was a bit lower.

My review is about effectiveness and not flavor/taste. I started drinking the canned Recess nightly, unintentionally, and noticed how much better I was sleeping and feeling steadier mentally throughout the day. And I would feel the difference if I skipped a couple days, but eventually I kind of forgot about it until I saw the powder form at a store and resumed. Along with sleeping better I think it helps my mood through out the day and I feel sharper when I need to focus or be creative. I already take a blend of other forms of magnesium and tend to take 2x-3x the RDA because that’s what feels best, but I think my experience is a testament to how effective l-threonate is. I believe drinking it in either the carbonated or powder form has more of a placebo effect for me in the moment and that the real benefit is in consistency. This powder is great for taking it as a supplement (as opposed to drinking the can as a non alcoholic treat) and for ~$25 for 28 servings, not to mention the other ingredients, is a really good value. Magnesium l-threonate is the form that crosses the blood brain barrier, so it’s the only one that has real cognitive benefits. Recess uses a high quality form and this is a solid dose. I feel best when I use it along with several other forms of magnesium (you can get decent blends for ~$15/month) at a high dose, but staying at 250mg or less of each form. This take could be way off, but part of me thinks stacking the types like this delivers more mg l-threonate to my brain because the other forms are taking the load off of treating my other systems. Considering magnesium is one of the only supplements that every single person should be taking, and this is one of the highest quality forms available, Recess is kind of missing the mark with their marketing of this because I had to piece together just how unique of a product it is. I would have started buying it in bulk years ago if they presented it seriously as a supplement to take consistently vs a fun drink when you want to relax.

Didn't easily mix in water, the taste was chalky. It arrived on time. Would not purchase again as it did nothing for my sleep.

I was using the brand called calm magnesium each night before I went to bed, along with valerian, root, melatonin, L THEANINE- and I would still wake up once a night and have to lay there for about an hour until I could get back to sleep. I know this is only happened because of menopause menopause. Even though I am on HRT and it has helped somewhat. The biggest benefit has been this product. It’s a bit more costly and you get a lot less. However, I have noticed a much better night sleep and even though I still wake up once in a while, I am able to get a full night sleep quite a few times a week. I was listening to Doctor talking about the different forms of magnesium and he mentioned that this particular form of magnesium is the one you want to take for sleep.

Taste great. A have a grown child with autism who has ARFID which makes him sensitive to texture and taste. He loves it. So I can be sure he gets the supplements he needs and he can keep a smile on his face!

I like it. I drink it before bed at night as part of my evening routine. I don’t know if it does much honestly but the ingredients are good and it tastes nice.

Lo recomiendo muchísimo! Sirve para estar hidratado y calmado
