Magnesium oxide form is a laxative and is not absorbed.
Some people are even sensitive to the chelates.
Morton Epsom Lotion is really nice and effective. You can't really put on your whole body in one day, but you can rotate areas as it seems to last more than one day for me. It is really a small miracle in a bottle for me at least.
A quarter's dollop a day is about the best amount to start with.
It is available at WalMart, some Walgreen's and online at Amazon.

Just wondering... Would this be an alternative way of magnesium delivery into our body that wouldn't interfere with the Gabapentin? I have read that Gaba depletes magnesium; yet taking magnesium interferes with the effectiveness of Gaba and should be taken within a couple hours of each other. Since I take Gaba 3-4 times s day I find it impossible to fit this in. Thx ahead for your reply!
