Hi,
I recommend Mag-Tabs SR which uses magnesium lactate in a sustained release
tablet. Part of the problem with magnesium supplements is that they are
hydrophilic to the intestines which can easily cause purging (hence the use for
constipation). From what I have read a problem arises because to be properly
absorbed magnesium must spend a certain period of time in the intestines and
the purging cuts this short. Hence most magnesium supplements cause further
magnesium deficiency rather than helping to correct the problem.
Before starting with a magnesium supplement it would be a good idea to do some
research.

80-90% of all people are Magnesium Deficient. I recommend Magnesium-Citrate
supplements for everyone, and it seems to clear up joint pain pretty quickly..
My wife gets flareups everytime she stops taking magnesium citrate. It used to
be in our foods more, and is not.. It used to be more concentrated in salt, it
is not, himalayan does have trace amounts, but not enough.
People used to eat more magnesium rich foods than they do today. I recommend
magnesium for everyone these days.

Someone on this list said they use something else, does anyone remember what it
is? If not, I could really use some suggestions as to what to use.
Thanks......Kathy
