Best type of magnesium supplement

[Guest guest]

Hi Donna,

I had a look at the magnesium I’m taking and find it is mostly magnesium oxide. Thank you for this information!

Can you tell us what is the usual amount of magnesium chloride to take?

Thank you,

Jean

I take mag chloride, and it is the best for me. Helps me sleep at night, no bowel troubles. I tried mag citrate, but developed softer bowel movements, and I tried mag malate, and I started waking up again at nights. But other have success with them. What I have heard is that in the end, your body has to make it into mag chloride, so I just go right there!

On a general note, anything but mag oxide seems to work for people. Oxide is barely useful to your body, and is known to cause bowel trouble. So try any of the others, including taurate, etc. and see what works for you.
