Great Magnesium gummies! I bought these gummies for my 2,5 y.o. toddler to help with sleep and bowl movements. She is definitely sleeping better. It also seems to me that shes more relaxed in general, even though its hard to make such a conclusion about a toddler as their mood changes about a hundred times a day - but yes, I think these gummies have a mild calming effect. As for BM, not sure if it works for her, maybe she needs a higher dosage (this gummy is 100mg), but I dont want to give her too much as for her age the recommended dose is 80-100 mg. (Side note: I myself, a 39yo adult, use magnesium in capsule form to help me with #2 and it works really well for me; it especially helped me with pregnancy constipation). My LO gets one gummy daily (or a bit less, I cut it in smaller pieces and give her about 80mg), but she still doesnt poop every day. (Sorry, TMI: Although when she does, the poop is soft.) Overall, this is a great supplement. My little one really loves the taste and is looking forward to taking her gummies (around bath time, each day). One (tiny) con: the size is quite big, but its not a deal breaker as a gummy can be easily cut into smaller pieces, and my LO doesnt mind (she thinks shes getting more that way ??????). Photo #2: Chapter One Magnesium gummy in comparison with a 5 mg Melatonin gummy (from a different brand). I will be ordering other Chapter One supplements for her.
