I've always shied away from magnesium because of the laxative properties. Have you not experienced that with the glycate form?

- aantix 10y agoEven taking in excess of 1,000mg, it may be a fairly running bowel movement but it's nothing that a normal session to the toilet can't handle. Body gets rid of the excess and I move on with my day. I could back it off, but honestly, it just isn't that burdensome and I enjoy the consistency of taking the same amount every day. And there may be days where I'm more stressed and the body could use more magnesium, so I just stick with my dosage.
- pmoriarty 10y agoThere's another way to get magnesium that doesn't involve the digestive tract, avoiding any laxative effect. Epsom salt baths. Magnesium is well absorbed through the skin this way, and the digestive tract is not involved.
