Higher dose means better results. Too much magnesium can cause side effects like diarrhoea, nausea, or even low blood pressure. For most adults, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) is around 310-420 mg of elemental magnesium, depending on age and gender (source: National Institutes of Health).
Supplements should fill nutritional gaps, not flood the system. If the diet already includes magnesium-rich foods (like spinach, almonds, or pumpkin seeds), then a smaller supplement dose might be enough.
