anyone on magnesium oxide?
I just started taking magnesium oxide. My levels were a little low and I was having alot of random muscles cramps in my feet, legs, ribs, neck, and back. I did a little research about the mineral and found out it is good for so many things. I'm hoping it will releive all of my little side effects from treatments, surgeries and cancer. It is good for cleaning out the toxins from all the scans which seem to go on endlessly now for almost 5 years. Just wondering how it worked for those of you taking it. I am on 400mg 2x a day. Thanks for any info. Sally

Talking Hey Sally
Just bumping this up to see if you can get some replies or experience here. Ed has had a potassium problem on and off for this 2 year duration, sometimes hand and hand with magnesium; he never needed the magnesium. Let us know how things are going for you with this added to your regime.

Wish I could help you but maybe a bump up could>>Believe51
