Charlie said:Yes, I know it's not exactly Peat approved but it is very effective.
narouz said:Wish I could remember the name of the interview,
but it's been quite a while.
Peat did specifically caution against several of the "fancy" magnesium chelates.
Magnesium Citrate was one.
Then there was the other one that is now being touted as specifically effective for removing aluminum I think;
can't recall the name now...
They are the ones usually considered the best and usually more expensive.
I can't remember exactly what Peat said he didn't like about them.
[edit: I think it was magnesium maleate, the aluminum removing one (supposedly)]
haidut said:In one of his articles on his website RP says that MagGly lowers serotonin. So if there was a way to ensure that the supplement was clean and without additives then MagGly would be a great supplement to take. As far as i know only one company makes a properly chelated supplement like that and it has a patent on it. The rumor is that all other vendors on the market just sell plain magnesium and glycine mixture without the elements being chemically bonded. I took some of the non patented versions and i have to say that it gave me some pretty bad nightmares. Very similar in experience to melatonin, which i was taking years before stumbling onto RP. IMO the best magnesium supplement is magnesium bicarbonate, which like sodim bicarbonatr has some additional benefits due to the CO2 it provides. Not to mention that it is much more absorbable than the magnesium pills of any form. Just google magnesium bicarbinate and you will find recipes for making it at home. For me personally it gives me an insane libido boost and i sleep like a 5 year old when i take it. Anyways, here is the RP article that talks about MagGly and a link on hiw to make magnesium bicarbonate:

"...There are several prescription drugs that protect against serotonin excess, but thyroid and gelatin (or glycine, as in magnesium glycinate) are protective against the serotonin and melatonin toxicities."

Are you drinking the magnesium carbonate daily? Do you drink this to bowel tolerance?
