Magnesium absorbtion/amount and Kaprex?
 

I started my new magnesium glycinate. They are 200mg for 2 tablets and say as magnesium bis-glycinate. I am working up right now to 10 a day the doc said. My ? is lets say I get to 8 and the diarea happens that is where I stay but is taking 800mg a day safe for a long period? Also is this magnesium glycinate absorbed as well as the slow mag? I have been spreading the magnesium glycinate out taking 1 at a time like one right when I wake then with breakast etc. Is it ok that I am taking the first on emty stomach?Also the kaprex I started taking which is suppose to be for pain and I researched it but it has little info of people who take it. I am not expecting much and it says 2 a day and so is this safe to take everyday 2 a day as well?Is there any issue with this making me worse or side effects? What I read no it may just do nothing but want the opinion of here cause you all have so much knowledge. Thank you

Hey Daniella,

I just purchased some Kaprex. I'lllet you know how it goes

Thanks who did you hear about it from and how much are you taking? I just started 2 a day. I will keep you updated too.

Well I stumbled across it when I was doing a search on supplements plus immune system. It was on some chiro's website.

And since I use a lot of the metagenic products which I have found to be very good I decided to read up more on it.

I have a lot of pain from these things called prostaglandgins which cause pain and cramping. I over produce since I endometriosis.

And Kaprex supposedly reduces PGE2 the prostaglandingins that cause pain.

I would also suggest to you Borage oil which helps reduce PGE2 and increase PGE1 and 3 which help reduce pain.

Let me know how it goes.

Which Kaprex did you get the regular or the A1 or something

Mine is menagetic joint formula.I think reg how do you take yours? 2 a day?The doc also had me get the borage.

There are actually 2 Metgenics Kaprex formulas. Regular Kaprex is for joint issues and the other one is Kaprex A1 and is for joint as well as autoimmune issues.

I have the regular Kaprex. Just started today. And I have to say it helped.

My pain is apparently from the endometriosis. Well we will see.

I am glad it is helping you. For me not so much. Are you taking 1 twice a day?

Will take it twice a day. It helped today but the jury is still out

I guess will be the test bunnies cause it seems very little people have tried this when I looked up info. I wonder if it will take time like other supp though to really work. Or if it is more like a tylenol where it works like that cause what I read it says take every 4-6 hours. It a weird looking pill.
