check the packaging/instructions. If hot water is needed, it
will tell you. It is possible that the kind sold there has some sort of catalyst added that makes it soluble at lower temperatures. It does say some sort of "proprietary form." I don't see anything proprietary about plain ol' anyhydrous citric acid and mag carbonate, so i guess it's
posssible there is something ELSE in there too, but nothing is mentioned. The kind sold here, which originated from the same maker, says to use hot water, so i figure most likely it's the same for over there. But just check.

Right. If your package says hot water is needed, you can let it cool before you drink it. You can save money by using less product.
As far as the less absorbable forms, like the carbonate and the oxide... i took an oxide based supplement for quite a while, and it made a difference when i did not take it. So, it's not like they're total garbage either!
