The USA Food and Nutrition Board has established the tolerable upper intake level for Supplemental Magnesium for adults as 350mg per day.
Checking with both your Pharmacist and Primary Physician prior to starting any supplement is strongly recommended.
Magnesium supplements are available in a variety of forms, including magnesium oxide, citrate, and chloride.
Absorption of magnesium from different kinds of magnesium supplements varies. Forms of magnesium that dissolve well in liquid are more completely absorbed in the gut than less soluble forms. Small studies have found that magnesium in the aspartate, citrate, lactate, and chloride forms is absorbed more completely and is more bioavailable than magnesium oxide and magnesium sulfate.
Possible side effects from magnesium supplements are stomach upset, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
