Thanks, Mrs. D.

I already bought it! Oh well, lesson learned...I'll try it and see if I notice any difference...At least it wont hurt...

I feel so 'had' lol

P.S. Thanks for the info., Billy...I agree that magnesium is necessary, and I was pretty sure I was deficient at least before...Lots of cramps and muscle twitching (this is all before ever starting mestinon)...I'm sure that as long as the dose isn't too high, and it's taken with other nutrients so the combo. is more similar to a whole meal, maybe, it should be okay..

If you get loose stools using this, it might point to that magnesium being the oxide form, which is not absorbed. It will pass into the bowel and loosen you up (people vary however with this).

There are foods relatively high in magnesium.

1 cup of navy beans = 110mg
3 oz of almonds == 270mg
1 cup yogurt == 47mg
1 serving oatmeat==57mg

Most green veggies have magnesium.
You can check various foods at www.nutritiondata.com
