Magnesium and potassium are urinated away. The body isn't jealous and doesn't have a recycling mechanism as with calcium and sodium. Magnesium is crucial in sugar metabolism and many neurological functions. If you don't get enough every day, you're screwed.
I got disgusted when I read that the most common form of magnesium found in supplements -- magnesium oxide -- is not soluble. It's absorbed only as much as it reacts with stomach acid. That's 3 to 4 percent. One study said that magnesium oxide increases serum magnesium no better than a placebo. Rip off.
Amino acid chelates, more often than not, are just magnesium oxide mixed with some amino acids. The idea is that they will react in your stomach a little. Or not. Rip off.
Many products say right on the label that they're magnesium whatever and magnesium oxide in some proportion they won't tell. Yeah, right. Like 99.99% magnesium oxide with a spoonful per ton of whatever.
Best to get magnesium citrate. It's absorbed as well as the expensive, bona fide chelates, but for a lower price.

Everything I do is wrong. I am the problem. She got what she wanted from me. Going away forever will make her happy again.
