Melody,

Sounds like you may need magnesium. And if you up your dose of magnesium citrate until you get diarrhea, and then back off, you will probably find the right dose.

I've found that a powdered form of magnesium will loosen my bowels if I take enough, even though a tablet didn't (same form of magnesium, good brand, and even higher dose). I don't need that, but in a desperate attempt to treat a spasm with higher doses and more absorbable form I learned about the effect on me.

Now calcium magnesium (citrate) powder did the trick on me.
