Lemon Magnesium Gummies Recipe

I’ve been on a gummy kick lately as a fun and tasty way to increase our nutrient intake. While I’ve made healthy gelatin in different ways over the years, I wanted to add a new one to the mix. These magnesium gummies taste like lemon, are a hit with kids, and have all the benefits of magnesium.

Let’s Talk About Magnesium Gummies

Most gummy vitamins on the market are full of sugar like glucose syrup or even high fructose corn syrup. And the sugar-free versions are often loaded with artificial sweeteners. They may be labeled non-GMO, gluten-free, and all the things, but there are still plenty of not-so-great ingredients hiding in them.

If you’re looking for chewable, great-tasting magnesium supplements, they’re hard to find.

Thankfully though they’re not hard to make! These magnesium citrate gummies get their natural flavors from lemon juice and honey. No artificial flavors in these gummy supplements.

Because the ingredients are safe I don’t feel the need to keep them out of reach of children. Unlike some store-bought dietary supplements. Although you might find they disappear quickly if they’re left out!

Magnesium Benefits

I’ve already covered why we need magnesium and how we’re likely not getting enough. Lots of times. But it’s worth repeating. Many multivitamin supplements focus more on calcium than magnesium. And food doesn’t have the same nutritional value it used to. I’ve heard from many readers that simply maximizing their magnesium levels has helped their health immensely.

There are many different types of magnesium and ways to get it. My kids use topical magnesium at night before bed. And my older kids and I take magnesium supplements. I like to have a variety of sources for maximum absorption.

Magnesium is great for the nervous system, better sleep, pain reduction, muscle health, and so much more. It’s generally calming and relaxing, so most people like to take it at night. Since I’m an inverse modulator, I find it energizing so I take mine in the mornings.
