I've read that we actually need more magnesium than calcium and most multis have

the combo wrong. Also that we should take magnesium to " bowel tolerance " and

then back down some. So I'm gathering if a person takes too much magnesium,

they'll be spending extra time in the bathroom. That should tell a person how

much they can take. I've never read about any dependency on it.

i think you can be getting too much magnesium right, like there has to be a

limit. also i heard your bowel movements can become dependent on it...

Magnesium is found in a 1:2 ratio with calcium in the body the actual need of

magnesium is higher because of the functions, excretions, etc. The bowel does

not become dependent on it. you can become temporarily dependent on laxative

herbs containing the anthroquinones but you will balance back out within a week

or so of stopping them if you do. Loose stool is not much of a meter of how

much magnesium you need but if your transit time increases you will just be

dumping it out. All green vegetables contain it. That is why it is the number

one mineral deficiency in the country. -Dave
