I am a big fan of this Natural Magnesium. This is because Lifestream extracts it from the clean and uncontaminated sea waters off the Irish coast.
Seawater naturally contains magnesium salts. Lifestream manufactures this magnesium by filtration, blending and heat drying without the need for adding preservatives or chemical products. The result is a highly bio-available and concentrated dose of elemental magnesium.
Ingredients: Magnesium Hydroxide (natural marine source)
I use this product mainly with clients who suffer from constipation, because of its osmotic-type action. If you suffer with chronic constipation, I recommend you to look into this bundled products. This may solve it once and for all.
Study:
This is a study that shows that magnesium hydroxide is more efficient than bulk-laxative in treating constipation in elderly long-stay patients. This is from that study: “Sixty-four geriatric long-stay patients aged 65 years or older participated in the trial. All were using laxatives prior to the study. For the study laxatives the mean dose of magnesium hydroxide was 25 ml daily and for bulk-laxative 8.7 g daily. Magnesium hydroxide caused a more frequent bowel habit (13.2 vs. 10.4/4 weeks, p less than 0.001) than bulk-laxative and additional laxative bisacodyl was not needed as often as with bulk-laxative (2.3 vs. 3.3/4 weeks, p less than 0.01). Also the stool consistency was more normal during the magnesium hydroxide treatment. In two patients serum magnesium was over 1.25 mmol/l after the magnesium hydroxide treatment but there were no clinical signs of hypermagnaesemia. Our study indicated magnesium hydroxide to be more efficient than bulk-laxative in treating constipation in elderly long-stay patients.”
