Magnesium oxide

Magnesium is often used to address anxiety/sleep issues, but I've never come across a proposal that it works via the gut microbiome. On the contrary, it's usually advised [i]not[/i] to use the magnesium oxide form because it isn't well absorbed but tends to stay in the gut and cause loose stools!

Looking to take Magnesium Oxide but struggling to find any tablets that aren't giant size. Does anyone know any brand that are smallish?

Typical…because I’ve already ordered some magnesium glycinate. The supermarket one says magnesium oxide and magnesium stearate.

I have experimented with Magnesium Oxide, Glycinate/Hylands Leg Cramps/Curcumin/Tonic water/Calcium and Potasium. The only thing that helps is drinking magnesium citrate power in water during a muscle cramp attack. I really wish I could find something to avoid them in the first place. Any ideas?

(Magnesium citrate, plus : Electrolyte complex - Ingredients: Calcium salts of orthophosphoric acid, Potassium Chloride, Sodium Chloride, Magnesium Oxide, Potassium Citrate) Everyone always talks about being careful with T4, and takingT4 in the middle of the night always works well for me.

I have been taking Life Extension extended release magnesium (as ZumXR magnesium oxide, magnesium citrate) 500 mg (2 capsules of 250 mg each). I understand from Daphne’s Facebook group that Mg Oxide is not recommended. I intend to switch to Mg-1-threonate.

Magnesium taurate doesn't agree with me either yet I can take taurine in high doses and magnesium independently. Magnesium oxide is the only one that actually helps with my digestive constipation anyway.

Conditional recommendations were made for the use of fiber, lactulose, senna, magnesium oxide, and lubiprostone. DISCUSSION: This document provides a comprehensive outline of the various over-the-counter and prescription pharmacological agents available for the treatment of CIC.

After going through the bottle containing 120 capsules, I started on Solaray calcium magnesium 2:1 ratio (containing calcium amino acid chelate complex, calcium carbonate, calcium hydroxide/ magnesium amino acid chelate complex, magnesium oxide plus glutamic acid HCL 100 mg).

The validity of tests using fingerprick blood samples has long been questioned. Some claiming they are unusably awful. Others claiming tests are as good as those done on venous blood. It is good to see a paper which has researched the questions. Unfortunately, while they did include TSH, they did not

I had a double bypass in 2001 and have been on Cholesterol reducing medication since 2000, first Simvastatin, now Atorvastatin 80 mg. My levels are still outside the limit required and my Gp wanted to prescribe another medication. However over the years I’ve found that Magnesium Stearate in medication

Has anyone used either Magnesium Chloride (which I understand you can get in a powder), or a magnesium chloride spray? Are they as effective as capsules. I wonder if these might work better for me than the Malate or glyncate due to my low stomach acid.

Hi all, I'm 43 with PV (on interferon). I had IVF and now wondering if I'm entering perimenopause... Anxiety is on the up! I've been having a look at diet and supplements. Magnesium seems to be recommended a lot. Are there any supplements we shouldn't take? (Apart from iron!). Thank you 😁

Wwwdot wrote something to the effect that the process of self treating is counter intuitive and someone else wrote that they needed higher amounts than thought to be need to heal. Reading this led me to pondering. If you had told me 4 years ago that I would have to design a way to self-treat that goes

We see all too many individuals who have difficulty tolerating one or more formulations of levothyroxine but, eventually, find at least one which they can tolerate. Rarely written up in medical literature - this is a very welcome exception. Recommend you view the actual document. [i]Liver injury

Looking for advice on the best magnesium to take. I started taking magnesium before all my thyroid issues were diagnosed as I would often get twitchy muscles. My muscles would twitch so hard, you could see it. I recorded it once when it effected my tummy and showed my GP as it was quite spectacular.

According to the Mayo Clinic Coffee ☕️ ☕️ ☕️ has components beyond just caffeine that are beneficial to people with chronic liver disease, including antioxidants and micronutrients such as magnesium, potassium and vitamin E — that can bring a range of health benefits.

I have been prescribed Levothyroxine for several years, after having a private blood test, showing that I had antibodies present. I am on a dosage of 75 mcg daily, but for the past few months have felt very tired, for no apparent reason. Also have picked up a few cold/flu bugs whereas n the past, I

Ok, so yesterday evening I experienced my first ever upper leg, hamstring (?) cramp, moving from inner leg to the back of the upper leg. Huh! Painful, uncomfortable but after surviving this (it wasn’t really that bad, and much less painful than the calf cramp I have experienced a few times ), I
