It is beginning to feel like a bit of a minefield to be honest!
Btw, mouse, I know we haven't spoken for quite some time. But, don't worry - I wouldn't knowingly guide you in the wrong direction. I'm not that childish ----- 😉
what kind of dose have you been given Mouse.
I take 2000mcg daily, I have took this for around 4 years.
Also, is is D2 or D3? D2 is not well absorbed whereas D3 is.

Hello all,
Does anyone know the best form of Magnesium to take as a supplement? The idea is to help my body process Vitamin D.Merci
🙂
There is a product called Isotonix Magnesium, it is very good because it is in powder form and when mixed with thr right powder and water becomes an Isotonic which is absorbed in 5 minutes and 95 % absorption rate

I found magnesium gave me an awful bloat the next day if I took it at dinner time

It may have been the type you took. I have been taking Magnesium Glycinate - no upsets at all but best to keep the dose quite low I think.
No bloating?

No, not at all, this form is very well absorbed. You'd probably need to buy it online however, I couldn't get in local health shops and bought from Amazon in the end.
best absorption

The best forms of magnesium in terms of absorption are organic forms like citrates, chelates or gluconates. Non-organic form such as magnesium oxide has very low absorption rate.
Even better than taking supplements is to include magnesium rich foods into your diet since they include other minerals, vitamins and enzymes that aid the absorption process. Here is a list of such foods high in magnesium: [url]Good Dietary Sources of Magnesium - Top 120 Rich Food List[/url]
Does these other forms of magnesium give you the bloat?
What does taking vit D do for you apart from lift your mood?

Have a look <a class="go2wpf-bbcode" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="here">here and here. It is far more than a vitamin - it is a hormone too.
Does these other forms of magnesium give you the bloat?
Usually no, but it can't be totally excluded. I would try different organic forms and then pick the one which is best tolerated.
I would find it is a problem possibly for people who have normal type 4 BSC bowel movements or a tendency to be loose i.e BSC 5-7.
Not always though as it is something we advise people to take if they have problems with constipation, I guess that's why we have Milk of Magnesia. With people who are chronically constipated that have tried the fibre, probiotics, vitamin C route then we often advise on magnesium or epsom salts etc. A lot of my clients have found it to be extremely beneficial esp if the have crampy IBS. If they also have crampy pms, muscle cramps, eye twitches etc it is often due to mag def. Magnesium deff is quite common.
If taking magnesium I would suggest taking it with calcium (unless on a low calcium diet) too as these work synergistically and too much of one can knock askew the other. I would also suggest it in ascorbate form or glycinate. 🙂
Thank you for sharing, this is also my problem is to find out
