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 is the laxative qualities of magnesium so we suggest that you start with one pill, and increase as needed from there. Taking magnesium with food can reduce the occurrence of diarrhea. Magnesium Glycinate should be considered if diarrhea or other gastrointestinal distress occurs.
What foods contain magnesium?
Good food sources of magnesium include leafy vegetables, whole grains, bananas, nuts, seeds and legumes. Water can also contain magnesium but the amount of magnesium can vary widely. Food processing erodes magnesium in foods. Despite the prevalence of magnesium in food, US dietary surveys typically find magnesium intake less than recommended.
How much magnesium should I take per day?
The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for magnesium varies by age and gender. Adult women need 310-360 mg per day while adult men need 400-420 mg. Since health conditions and illnesses can impact the amount of magnesium needed, it’s important to speak with your physician to understand your specific needs.
How much elemental magnesium is in each capsule?
Each Cooper Complete Magnesium Oxide capsule provides 300 mg elemental magnesium.
When should I take Magnesium Oxide?
We suggest magnesium supplements be taken with your evening meal. Consult with your physician whether Magnesium supplements should be taken with osteoporosis medication or antibiotics.
What are signs of magnesium deficiency?
Magnesium deficiency can contribute to muscle spasms, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, arrhythmia (AFIB) and migraines.
What are magnesium deficiency risk factors?
Older adults, people with diseases of malabsorption such as Crohn’s disease and celiac disease, type 2 diabetics, and alcoholics are all at risk of magnesium deficiency. Long time use of prescription diuretics can increase magnesium loss in urine and deplete magnesium levels.
Should I take calcium with magnesium?
Calcium and magnesium have a complicated relationship. Magnesium is essential for the absorption and metabolism of calcium inside the body. It’s important to keep these two minerals in balance. Too much calcium and/or too little magnesium can have negative health effects. It is important to speak with your physician before taking supplements to understand your specific needs.
Has magnesium oxide been widely studied?
Yes. PubMed Central (PMC) has thousands of research articles on magnesium oxide.
