Expert reveals which magnesium TikTok sleep hacks actually work. There is a lot of health information on TikTok, including different ways to use magnesium to improve your sleep. Magnesium has been shown to have an effect on sleep, but not all methods are effective. Sammy Margo, sleep expert at Dreams, explores the effectiveness of these trends, including unusual methods such as spraying magnesium on your feet amid the growing interest in natural sleep remedies. Don’t drink the Sleepy Girl Mocktail: The viral Sleepy Girl Mocktail, which claims to promote sleep, is a homemade drink made from tart cherry juice, magnesium powder and prebiotic soda. ”Whilst it may look like a dream, the viral Sleepy Girl Mocktail is not for everyone," Sammy states. ”It does have the beneficial magnesium included, but the high sugar content from the tart cherry juice can lead to blood sugar fluctuations, which may disrupt your sleep.” Do try chamomile tea: Instead of the mocktail, drinking chamomile tea is a great way to induce sleep and improve sleep quality. ”Sometimes sticking to the basics is best: camomile tea has long been hailed for its relaxing qualities, and for good reason.” "It contains apigenin, which is an antioxidant that may help promote good sleep. It may not have the magnesium involved in today's trends, but the natural purity of camomile tea is a much better drink option for a sound night's sleep.” Do spray your feet with magnesium: Spraying your feet with magnesium can help your body relax, which can help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep. ”Thanks to its pure magnesium content, this hack may actually do the trick for some people! Not only does the mineral help with relaxation, it also may help in improving muscle tightness.” "Foot and leg cramps are one of the most common sleep disturbances amongst adults, with up to 60% of adults experiencing them at night, and we know very little about the causes.” "However, magnesium may help loosen and relax the muscles a little more to reduce the risk of this happening.” THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
