Re:Re: Mag-Tab Sr Magnesium legal?

[Guest guest]

I wouldn't touch this magnesium supplement myself, because of the carnauba wax and D & C Yellow No. 10. The other ingredients are OK (I think but couldn't find much about dihydrate or L-lactate so not positive), but you don't really need anything but the magnesium itself.

I get magnesium glycinate from Kirkman Labs that has nothing in it but magnesium or the cellulose capsule it comes in, which I empty anyway as I mix magnesium in water. I'm currently testing liquid magnesium from BodyBio/Elyte, which is working much better for me.

So, I'd find another source of magnesium. No need to get all these additives that are used primarily for making a tablet that holds together, with some coloring added for whatever reason. Kirkman Labs has several types as I recall, but my body tolerates mag glycinate the best.
