to become a guinea pig for a new product.

Ionic Fizz Magnesium Plus. I was surfing the net a couple of days ago and
ran across this product.

I bought it locally at Whole Foods (they only had one left) and it comes with
a large flyer/handout. It appears similar to the product Calm on the surface, but it has
an effervescent base, which appeals to me (effervescent products can enhance absorption...speed it up...and in the case of magnesium that would be very good, and spare the laxative side effects).

I liked the other ingredients in it too. The silica and boron are taylored to
arthritis sufferers/fibro patients/people with osteoporosis.

I'll let you all know on this thread, after a month!

If this spares the "laxative" effect for me--- to which I am very sensitive--
I will be back with a glowing review!

There is another version called Ionic Fizz Calcium Plus. It has 25% of daily
calcium in it...but the maker recommends using the Magnesium Plus daily for 90 days before trying the other! This product is flavored, and not hard to take.

I bought it locally, but it is available for much less $$ online. Vitacost and our friend iherb both have the larger tub for the same price as I paid for a smaller size.

It has other nutrients in it too:

I will come back later with my own opinion about this product!
