Disappointed. I just received the product and it has the prop 65 of the state of california and the worst thing is that they do not specify it in the description

Not the best absorbed Magnesium, would not recommend

I've tried just about every magnesium there is. This one is very sub par. I would not recommend it. Just a thought here on where and how the conjugate bases distribute in the body as it will dictate Mg distribution. Magnesium Threonate is effective in the nervous system because threonine is actively transported across the blood-brain barrier and thus Mg2 comes along for the ride. For the same reasons, bis-glycinate (aka glycinate) sequesters more in the liver (glycine is used highly for phase II metabolism in the liver), taurate in muscle, malate within the mitochondria (metabolically active tissues like the kidney, liver, muscle but not the brain!), and aspartate along the vascular endothelium. You can be specific with your magnesium supplements throughout the day but should / can supplement around 2000mg per day. Take a quality bisglycinate / taurate / malate throughout the day and a threonate at night prior to bed. Caveat with Mg supplementation - it competes with Zinc for absorption. Do not consume the two within about 1.5 hours. Supplement with Zinc with a meal and a Mg complex between meals / with snacks or before bed

For migraines

If you suffer from migraines you should at least try magnesium. It's not a guarantee because people get migraines for all kinds of reasons. I was on all kinds of prescriptions from a neurologist for YEARS and they only got worse. I know it's not 100% because you may not be magnesium deficient but it's not expensive and if you have migraines I bet you are willing to try just about anything. It drops my blood pressure a bit so maybe check with your doctor if you have issues there but honestly, just try it. I know it sounds like crazy hippy stuff but it really changed my life literally within like a week of starting it. I really hope someone sees this and it helps them, I just want to tell everyone haha

Everyone needs this

My once deficient level of magnesium was quickly overcome... this is a great product and NOT made in a lab. Which is what you should be looking at when buying supplements

False advertising! Magnesium not plant-based.

There is a reason the label isn't pictured here. The magnesium is not plant-based but rather derived from plain, old seawater. While it's true that some of the product, the calcium portion, is derived from red algae; the same cannot be said of the magnesium. It is 100% seawater derived, NOT plant-based. Shame on Nature's Answer for falsely marketing a product like that

They work great and are from the sea, perfect

I feel great when I take these magnesium/calcium capsules since I was having some lower back discomfort due to my pregnancy, mind you, you have to take 4 capsules daily, no where is that stated since you can't see the back of the bottle in the pictures they show

Great find!

After having taken the chemical version of magnesium citrate for years, I'm delighted to have found this natural version. It seems to work as well or better than the chemical version. I've checked the manufacturer's website for info re. testing for toxins they've done - they seem to be quite on top of this area as well

seems to absorb well

I'm one of those people that experiences a calming effect from Magnesium. I take these and often feel more relaxed so I think the absorption is good

I am so pleased that it is plant based and provides us with …

Believe it or not, it is not uncommon for people to be deficient on magnesium. Without supplements, my husband and I certainly are. We started taking Natural Calm in the fizzy-drink-powder form but quickly became tired of making the nightly mix. That is when I found this supplement from a local vitamin store. I am so pleased that it is plant based and provides us with the magnesium we need with the added flavorings, extra ingredients, and the inconvenience of mixing it up into a heated drink. To my delight, after finishing up the first bottle I found that Amazon sold the exact same supplement but at a far more affordable price
