What is Magnesium Oxide?

Magnesium oxide (MgO) is an inorganic compound that occurs in nature as the mineral periclase. It is the oxide salt of magnesium. In addition to its benefits for bone health, energy production and heart health, it is also often used as an antacid and mild laxative and has many nonmedicinal uses.

Does Magnesium Oxide have a laxative effect?

A common complaint about magnesium oxide is the laxative qualities of magnesium so we suggest that you start with one pill, and increase as needed from there.
