Magnesium

I take it everyday.

It's one of the few supplements proven to work. There are actually only a handful proven to work via supplementation. Other stuff is just pissed out.

I probably take some stuff that is questionable but figure it can't hurt.
 
I’ve been using magnesium supplements since I was in high school due to the impact it had on my migraine headaches. With magnesium supplementation I not only decreased severity of migraine but I actually eliminated occurrences altogether.
 
I randomly had vision problems with seeing lights and shit while I was driving. Went to the eye doc, he dilated the holy hell out of my eyes and everything checked out. Told me to start supplementing magnesium to see if that helped.

I shit you not within 3 days I was good to go again.

Had a follow up and he said keep taking it until your levels are good. I thought that was a dumb thing to say so I asked how the hell could I know when my levels are 'good' again. He said keep taking it at these levels until you immediately get diarrhea then go down to the normal dose.

Yep, he was right again. Got rapidly onset diarrhea where I ran to the bathroom and I've been on one capsule ever since.
 
I never paid any attention to it until about 5yrs ago when I decided to take the gym and lifestyle to a new level. Been taking it daily ever since.

Doctors Best amd Now are my favorite companies for a lot of items . They both are highly vetted and {Now/NowSport/Now Foods are family owned still} .

I hate seeing Nestle SA buy up a lot of the companies (evil company)

Love my nightly magnesium. I’m almost ever persona bloodwork I’ve seen(which was a ton)
Seemed about 70% of patients had low magnesium. Everyone I know takes it now .
I’ve use Calm, Mag7 , Oxy-Powder caps but ,
the Doctors best is more efficient for me(*calm is good but I only used it cuz i was sent 6 bottles free, it’s too expensive for my supp budget}. Good post

Same ! Lol. Just a great company and have been , the Richard Family still owns it but the main family member who ran it died in 2017, but they appointed Emme to run it . They had some controversy because almost all companies get their raw materials from China and India or other Asian countries just like our medicines but the difference is the companies (staff, warehouses, in house lab that are experts in each respective field). I visited OptiMSMw my papa (was a family owned biz) but of course Cardinal Health bought them out. is the best and branded nutraceutical version of MSM that worked with Dr. Stanley Jacobs who was known as the Father of DMSO (which is the base of making MSM , he tested it for decades on patients at OHSU. Anyway , I’ve seen Nootropics Depot coming up (they have in-house labs to check batches and 3rd party labs
(We are all skeptical about these things, lol)

I think that in the near future, smaller boutique labs will be “the place” to get truly good supps.

Because of this : READ

Since 2017, over $20 billion has been invested in supplement companies by the likes of Bayer, Nestle, Unilever, Proctor & Gamble, and Clorox. Mergers and acquisitions in the supplement sector have surged: in 2018, there were 83 transactions; in 2021, there were 137. It’s no secret why large corporations are moving in—the supplement market grew from $28 billion in 2010 to almost $60 billion in 2021.

Makes me ill. I know where they are heading with this as they target with the 3 letter associations (owners we know of legitimate,
Legal supplements) ; close em or sue them to death with fake bs (just like NAC) was targeted during Covid because big Pharma developed a Traumatic Brain Injury drug + 20 other ailments that were 100x more effective at working than their past drugs.

What’s the dosage you recommend?

I take 500mgs a day.

I know alot of people use 250-500 but I also know some people who take too much per day complain of diarrhea or digestive style issues. Never happened to me before

I also use IML (ZMA) and that is not a plug, it's just something I use

I am a big fan of the SOLGAR brand line, thought they can be alot pricier. They are high quality and I have used them 20+years for basic needs

ScAmazon carries them even though I despise Amazon and Walmart and try to never support them tbh. Only when I absolutely have to buy something there I do.

Thanks, that the dose I usually use as well, except if I know I have some heavy work the next day, then I use 1g before bed, for my that helps with cramping and I sleep deep. I’ll check out that brand, I been using some regular ZMA caps and some bulk powder for when I load up.
