here’s a good reference for the different forms of magnesium:
i prefer threonate for its bioavailability and ability to get past the blood brain barrier… but have also benefited from other forms such as glycinate… check it out if you haven’t read about the other forms of magnesium out there
Dear Bob, I saw your earlier comment in this string and I just want to say THANK YOU! Your products have been so helpful and I will continue to spread the word. You ARE making a difference and I know enough of us don’t tell you that.
CORRECTION: I made a typo. The correct version is: GLY = glycine, GLU = glutathione
therefore: “boosting glutathione (a.k.a. GLY)” should be GLU
Thanks for this magnesium link, good to know. I’m experimenting with L-Threonate and keeping my gut healthy. I’ve decided to consult a sleep specialist because my condition appears to be sleep apnea.
Thanks for your input. I haven’t tried magnesium glycinate yet, maybe that’s next. No worries about diarrhea, I have the opposite problem -ugh! (a natural herbal laxative is part of the regime). My device with the pad at my ankles is so comforting at this cold time of the year, my favorite “supplement”. (I have fewer charlie horses.)
