I have a quick observation:
Magnesium in OXIDE form is still around to purchase, and also quite cheap. BUT ...it has been found to not be absorbed much at all. You need a better form such as SlowMag, or a chelated type ...
carbonate
citrate
gluconate
glycinate
lactate
Avoid aspartate type as it stimulates pain receptors (NMDA).
Here is a good website that explains magnesium, and offers food
choices:
http://www.slowmag.com/
Magnesium oxide today is used mostly as a laxative....as in Phillips Caplets.
