magnesium actually has a "laxative" effect. it works with calcium to do many processes in the body. with muscle, calcium helps the muscle to contract, and magnesium helps it to relax. your intestines are muscle, and when relaxed, the result is loose stool.
how much are you actually taking?
Yes. "Mineral Supply" from hannasherbshop.com will do the trick without the problems.
Nope. If diarehha is the result of your magnesium intake, then you are taking more than your body requires. Cut the intake in half.
if you want natural Magnesium, the best foods would be:
and make sure to take your calcium
oat bran
buckwheat
Pumkin seeds
artichokes
spinich
white beans
nuts(raw almonds are best)

Hi Storm. Magnesium Glycinate has been shown to have minimal laxative action. Give it a try.
Best wishes and good luck.
There will not be a laxative effect if one takes less.
