Best magnesium

Any opinions on whether to go with dr best magnesium or Kal magnesium brand? Kal has 400 mg vs 200 in dr best however I'm never heard of them before.

Magnesium malate is the most bowel tolerated. Take 400 to 500 mg per day. That's the elemental Mg, which corresponds to 2667 to 3333 mg malate. I use source naturals magnesium malate.

I'm not following how your saying elemental is 2667 mg? So your saying 400 is really counted as 2667 mg?

manesium threonate is said to pass the blood brain barrier. I believe I'm seeing a benefit from it. I'm using the Life Extension $$$Neuro-Mag. I also take Jarrow Mag Optimizer which is malate.

Spot price on pure Mg is $2/kilo. How much pure MgCl2 will that yield if you make your own? Of course you'll be missing out on all those mystery elements which dropped out of the Late Permian sea like Kronosarus, Megolodon, Mosasaurus and Dunkleosteus dung.

the dose is 1 tablet 3 times per day to provide : 1) 1200 of magnesium malate, or 2) 425 mg of "elemental" magnesium, i.e., weight of magnesium alone without the weight of malate.

I use Kal Magnesium and it is very well tolerated.

Any opinions on whether to go with dr best magnesium or Kal magnesium brand? Kal has 400 mg vs 200 in dr best however I'm never heard of them before.

Personally, aside from the oral magnesium supplements, I also use magnesium gels to boost my levels.

This is the product I settled on:

Health and Wisdom Inc., Magnesium Gel, 12 fl oz (355 ml)
Tried a few brands and types of oils and gels and found this works best. (just my 2 cents)
