"Any recommendations as to which form of magnesium is best. I found thecitrate form worked well for me, but it's pricey.~Katy "But the other forms are not absorbed well. Mag oxide for instance is almost worthless.I got Magnesium Oil and put it in a roll on bottle. It says apply and rinse off after 20 minutes, but I roll it on and leave it. Seems to absorb well going by the results.Almost all who have had a heart attack are mag deficient. Something to think about.Gayla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
