Dorothy, Magnesium Oxide does not work....please read my mag thread on
the vitamin forum:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/showthread.php?t=1138
There have been studies showing very poor absorption (around 8mg for the 400mg dose) of oxide form. I have alternate suggestions on that thread that work much better. In comparison 3 oz of unsalted almonds have 270 mg of Mag available to you naturally.
