I've been using citrate, chloride, glycinate forms mostly..

A young woman on my other FM/CFS group just posted on her latest regime and she mentioned mag spray. Here is what our australian researcher came back with, he deals with CFS:

Why are you taking magnesium by spray? Is it a transdermal spray because if it is these are not very effective at delivering the required magnesium. Also if you can afford it Magnesium Threonate is by far the best form.

I will check out the above form. I have not taken it.

    This form talks mostly about memory and brain function. As we age, more and more think about this issue....

      I thought the transdermal option was the best for absorbtion. I supplement with both methods just in case+diet.

    Also i had a full vitamin and mineral anakysis done with regards to my CFS and all my vit+mierals were spot on, so CFS is not caused in my view by a vitamin or mineral deficiency, there is more going on.

    We are talking about the Mag Threonate on the FM/CFS board I've been a member of for 8 yrs and a woman who is in "the know", she does all alternative healing said she is on Mag Threonate with her glycinate she is happier, more altert and overall better mood....her nutritionist knows of Mag Threonte and definnitely suggests it for blood brain barrier (BBB). I have a bottle on order and looking forward to that happier feeling.

    As usual do your research, there is plenty of info on this form of mag. It's a relatively new form I believe.
