The average adult needs 300-400mg of Magnesium per day - but 50% of the western adult population is not meeting this target. This is partly because there is less Magnesium in our foodstuffs with modern-day farming, but it is also because we eat more processed foods containing lots of sugar. Some people - mostly without knowing it - eat the equivalent of more than a pound of sugar per day. That is 20-30 times as much as the ideal!
A good rule of thumb is to use magnesium-citrate if you have a tendency to constipation, otherwise, take magnesium-glycinate. We stock both. Avoid magnesium-oxide or -carbonate supplements. They are difficult to absorb.
Talk to your practitioner about the options available to you and the most appropriate action.
