check, check, and check. I'll make the switch. I'm not usually so easily swayed by internet posters, but when I say the iodine supplementation has changed my life I'm not exaggerating. I've only been taking the selenium, C, Celtic Grey sea salt, and the magnesium because of it. Swapping out a different form of magnesium is a simple change that I'm willing to try for a bottle or two.
I'll be honest I do sort of like the laxative effect of the mag oxide.
Awhile back, my wife and I switched to mag l-threonate to assist with brain function, but we missed the regularity the mag oxide seems to give us so we switched back when we finished the bottle.
my dad is the same way but just keep in mind that the laxative effect is BECAUSE it’s not absorbing. Once you ramp up on a good, absorbable for like glycinate, you’ll see the same effectives but it will be due to relaxing the muscles and increasing the peristalsis (sp) affect.
