To mrsD:--

I bought the "SlowMag" today at CVS. Magnesium Chloride: Included -- (238 mg of calcium, 143 mg Magnesium, chloride 405 mg, and sodium 5 mg - this amount based on a 2 tablet serving per day) It was 15 bucks for 60 tablets. But the only one I found was the one with calcium added with it.

I don't know if this is good or not. I heard calcium in high doses could aggravate your kidneys and or prostate, I'm not sure. I did have a Kidney stone last year. So I figure I'd take 1 pill a day instead of 2, with the idea that the better absorbing magnesium will equal out the old oxide type I was taking.

Is this a logical idea? ...I'd really like your opinion on this.

Also, I don't know what "Chloride" is, but 405 mg seems pretty excessive, so I'd appreciate your thoughts about that, too. ...Thanks.
