I have to take magnesium because of all my problems. I won't tell you how much, because the amount is determined by my weekly blood tests. What I can tell you is that magnesium will give you diarrhea if not paired with protein. I order the magnesium w/protein through the Miller Pharmaceutical Group. You can also get magnesium through pumpkin seeds and by soaking in Epsom salt. I shower (wish I had a tub), so what I do is put a stopper on the drain, pour the salts on the floor of the shower and shower as usual.
