Quite a number of people end up with low magnesium without even knowing, especially if they do not eat enough leafy greens, nuts, seeds, or whole grains. It is still best to check your magnesium level and kidney function before starting anything.
But remember, Magnesium is not a miracle pill ok? It is just one of the many supplements out there that can help you sleep better, and sometimes there are other changes or supplements that might suit you more.

Our bodies work best when we sleep during darkness and wake up to daylight. Remember this, sunlight is not just for waking up, it helps regulate your hormones, metabolism, mood, and even vitamin D levels. Missing out on natural light can affect both your physical and mental health over time.
Long story short, even if you feel fine now, a 3 am sleep schedule is not something I would recommend in the long run.
