Magnesium supports a calm nervous system, which is why it is a common evening ingredient for people who feel wired at night after a daytime stimulant. It works on relaxation and the body's calming pathways rather than sedating you, so it fits an end-of-day routine.
If the stimulant that carried your day is still echoing at bedtime, the issue is often a nervous system that has not downshifted. Magnesium is one of the more studied minerals for that transition.
Stimulants like Adderall®, Vyvanse®, Ritalin®, and Concerta®, can raise dopamine and norepinephrine activity and add load to the body's stress response. For some people that keyed-up state lingers into the evening, which makes winding down harder even when they are tired. The fix is not more sedation. It is supporting the systems that let the body settle.
Magnesium contributes to a calm nervous system and relaxed muscles, and it works closely with Vitamin B6. In controlled research, magnesium supplementation has been associated with better self-reported sleep measures in adults who were falling short (PMID: 23853635), and a systematic review of magnesium and sleep found the relationship worth taking seriously while noting the evidence is still developing (PMID: 35184264). It is best understood as support for the calming side of the evening, not a sleep switch.
Stasis Nighttime includes Magnesium (as magnesium glycinate, 50mg) alongside other ingredients such as Venetron, Magnolia Bark, and a low dose of Melatonin (2mg). Every ingredient and dose is listed on the ingredients page. To be clear about the split: magnesium is part of the Nighttime formula, taken before bed, not the Daytime formula you take with your stimulant.
In an open-label consumer survey, 62% reported fewer sleep issues.†
