Re: what kind of magnesium to use??

[Guest guest]

Depends. Any form is fine - and there are many many different

preferences. At my house, most of my kids start refusing the oxide

form after a couple days, so mostly try to find any other form & use

that, which has worked for us...or just slide by on epsom salt baths

for awhile

Should be able to find more ideas & information at these:

They say to avoid magnesium oxide as this form is poorly absorbed. The other

forms are individualistic to how people react to them. We used a product by

BioGenesis called " TriMag " which has equal parts of mag

glycinate/citrate/malate.

[ ] what kind of magnesium to use??

Want to add magnesium ....just check out kirkman lab.

There are many formulas...calcium/magnesium, magnesium citrate,

buffered magnesium oxide, buffered magnesium clycinate.

What is everyone using?

Magnesium Citrate is the most bioavailable form. Equally

good is soaking in Magnesium sulphate (epsom salts).

We use the Magnesium Citrate powder from Kirkman.

We use chelated magnesium. They say chelated minerals are absorbed by the

body really well.

citrate or glycinate are more absorbable. Oxide less so. We use the

citrate here, but I have used the glycinate they sell also.

Best is magnesium glycinate (max absorbibility and easy on stomach)

The magnesium content of magnesium citrate corresponds to about 11%.
