Guest guest Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 That was an interesting article, but I have a couple more questions. How important is it to take the Mag with taurine? I believe the author sells that formulation. He also says he takes no calcium. Is that a good idea? Thanks, Pat [ ] Re: magnesium info Jeanne, How much magnesium do you take a day?

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 I take 500 mg a day in divided doses morning and night before bed. Everyone is different but check the info to see what types as I know some are better than others. Jeanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most often magnesium is more lacking in our diets. How much you take depends upon how much is contained in your diet. If you are not getting muscle cramps you would probably do okay on 300-400 mgs. of each per day. In any case, do not take more than 500 mgs. of a calcium supplement at one time - the body can only handle that much at one time. I take 300 mgs. of each. Some days my calcium intake is higher and I take extra magnesium. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 I was reading up on Magnesium today and came across a site that had a tremendous amount of information on more than just Mg. Also connected Asthma, Osteoporosis, Scoliosis, Fibromyalgia, Celiac Disease, Candida Dysbiosis, Migraines and various other disorders to lack of balanced nutrition, mainly magnesium. http://www. ctds .info/index.html Garnet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
