Magnesium 400 mg acts like a laxative

0 Upvotes

I guess this means it's too strong?

The brand I use is the Nature Made brand.

I took Magnesium Oxide 400 mg every day to help with heart palpitations as directed by my cardiologist.

Eventually I didn't need it anymore when I took a break from it since it was causing me to use the bathroom a lot. (I think other defiencies was the real culprit because I later introduced different supplements and then my heart palp fully went away)

I want to resume Magnesium but I guess I was worried 250 mg might be too strong.

I had tried Magnesium Glycinate in the past, but that was for taking it as a sleep aid.

I have considered taking Magnesium Oxide every other day but I don't know if I will still get enough benefits from it.

Anyone have a similar experience with Magnesium Oxide?

Magnesium Bisglycinate causing anxiety

4 Upvotes

Damn, just want to warn people here, I bought magnesium Bisglycinate last week since I read good stuff about it, however I am a person that has been having anxiety issues now and then and since I have been taking this form of magnesium before sleep my anxiety went up like crazy, first days after taking I didn’t realize it was from the mag until I stopped taking it.

Perhaps I help someone with my honest experience

Magnesium and period cycle

4 Upvotes

So I started taking 300mg of magnesium glycinate three weeks ago. I’ve been sleeping better through the night and less anxiety. I noticed my period this month was very light brown spotting for four days, then disappeared. This is very unusual for me. I always bleed a full five days. I read about how it can delay my period, I stopped taking the mag for one night and didn’t sleep at all! Did this happen to anyone and did you keep taking the mag? Did your cycle eventually get back to normal or did you have to stop mag?
