In reply to Larry, question re: magnesium, posted by McPac on December 7, 2003, at 22:29:49
> Was reading an excerpt from Sherry Rogers (of holistic notoriety) in which she said to only use liquid magnesium because the hard tablets don't absorb into your system. Whatcha think Lar?
I think you should stop reading books by quacks. That's what I think.
Milk of magnesia (magnesium hydroxide), for example, is often supplied as a liquid, but it is not dissolved magnesium.....the milkiness is due to very fine solid particles suspended in water. It's no more absorbable than mag hydroxide tablets. They both need to be dissolved first. The only advantage is that the liquid form already has small particles, but if you chew the tablets (like you're sposed to)....
