BEWARE.... You must drink your water....

Magnesium is an essential mineral and a deficiency can cause cramps and other problems. My trainer informed me about the need for it. Google it and you can see the many needs for it.
As fo me I am doing ok.

Hi Jewelcrown!

When taking magnesium, pair it with your calcium citrate and vitamin D.  The addition of magnesium will not only work on muscle cramping, but will regulate calcium transport, increase your potassium uptake, and aid in relieving constipation as a side benefit. 

I have anemia due to heavy periods which are 'normal' for me, but adding prescription iron to my supplement regimen caused the dreaded constipation.  The addition of magnesium and probiotics thankfully solved the problem! 

Remember to space any iron supplement at least 2 hours from a calcium dose, as iron & calcium oppose absorption of one another.
