Magnesium Lactate 500 mg - 90 Vegetarian Capsule

Works well, strong.

I read up on magnesium, it is something that as we get older apparently becomes more important. There are a plethora of forms of magnesium, some better to use and some not doing much for you, as the magnesium part is a smaller amount than what the label says. This is one of the "some better" group, and each type supposedly helps in a different area, e.g., brain, muscle aches, etc. Unlike a magnesium chloride product I tried, this product stays intact, while the other literally starts to disintegrate when exposed to air so that it cannot be put in a pill container with another pill. It's not too unlike what they say about apples giving off a gas that speeds up the ripening of other nearby fruit.I was happy with this product and intend to purchase it again.

I cancelled my subscription, because I feel uncomfortable about the smaller physical size of MONOHERB's 500 mg capsule when compared to Swanson's larger capsule containing 84 mg of magnesium lactate. I will wait until a third party can verify that MONOHERB has the claimed 500 mg of magnesium lactate before I reinstate my subscription.I am concerned, because Consumer Lab had exposed a company that falsely reported that its capsule had more magnesium glycinate than the capsule could physically accomodate. I am not accusing MONOHERB of fraud. I am merely exercising due diligence. Third party verification gives me confidence that I made an excellent decision.

Can you trust a company who can't tell you what amount of 'elemental magnesium' is in a 500mg magnesium lactate capsule? I sure don't. They don't even know what % of magnesium Daily Value it represents! I emailed MONOHERB, of course they didn't respond. So basically, this company doesn't seem to know what they produce and sell. Not buying from them again...

I recently learned that I am deficient in magnesium, despite having taken a full-spectrum multivitamin/multimineral every day for decades in addition to eating very healthy.It turns out that the chemical form of magnesium in my multivitamin/multimineral is a poorly-absorbable type, "magnesium oxide". That form didn't give me any digestive pain, but it turns out that my body wasn't absorbing it either.So I tried different magnesium supplements from a number of brands, (CVS, Rite Aid, Optimum Nutrition, etc., etc., etc.). Unfortunately, each of them caused extremely severe GI pain.I then researched online which chemical form of oral magnesium supplement is well-absorbed AND easiest on the gastrointestinal tract: magnesium lactate. That is the form used in this particular supplement from Monoherb.I've been taking this each day for a couple weeks now, and never once have had even the slightest GI discomfort. I also like it that the dose is 300 mg (and not more than that), as ~300 mg/day is all of the additional magnesium supplementation that my body needs to compensate for my deficiency.

I used to get Charlie horses and my chiropractor recommended these to me so I got some. They seem to work really well and help with that but you never know if it’s these or something else. After I ran out I hadn’t reordered more and a week later started getting Charlie horses again and had forgotten what they were like. I immediately ordered another bottle with next day delivery and can’t wait for them to get here.

with a genetic disorder requiring magnesium to stop nighttime muscle pain and cramps I sought magensium which did not cause diarrhea when taking high doses. Here it is. I use it with out side effects. I can take an extra dose (with normal kidneys ) without risk or diarrhea. I thank the renal specialist who sent me to magensium lactate This company sells it at an acceptable cost daily. "Customer for life"
