Re: Bodies do absorb magnesium, but not magnesium hydroxide- really!

Yes I am a very caring person, and no I don't mean to spread misinformation, but magnesium hydroxide is not absorbed by the body in any significant amount- and here is the info to prove it.

Read the info from Oxypowder 's website yourself:

" Oxypowder , when in an acidic environment, begins to slowly release nascent or mono-atomic oxygen. The release of oxygen continues throughout the digestive system. The magnesium acts as a vehicle to transport the oxygen throughout the body.
The by-products of Oxypowder are magnesium in an oxide form and nascent oxygen. In its oxide form, very little magnesium is assimilated by the body. It passes, through the intestinal tract, kidneys and bladder, helping to cleanse by delivering oxygen along the way. Therefore, it is the perfect vehicle for transporting oxygen."

Are the manufacturers of this product wrong about their own product? Are they totally out to lunch? I'm sure we would all like to know if they are so we don't end up having magnesium toxicity if we take their product. I mean, you're not an expert, and I'm not an expert, but if they're not experts- we're in big trouble.

And oops, me saying that citrate wasn't absorbable in my first paragraph was a typo- I have gone back to fix it.

Plus, I'm really sorry you have that condition with your metabolism too. Feel better now?
