i took a bunch of mag yesterday and laid awake for hours before taking some benedryl&taurine to finally put me down.
i wonder if some of the reverse effects of magnesium (insomnia and uh...insomnia) aren't related to adrenaline suppression via COMT.
maybe it's like how beta blockers suppress adrenaline and inadvertedly wind up messing up folks melatonin...so that even though they're tired all the time, they can't fricking sleep at night.
is our melatonin release at night dependent on a certain amount of adrenal action during the day?
