    Recently I finally figured out why such a huge % of ppl is vitamin D3 deficient. And it is very simple: nobody knows the exact figure to determine vitamin D3 sufficiency.
    The determination of vitamin D sufficiency is indeed a crucial factor in assessing and addressing vitamin D deficiency. Without a universally agreed-upon standard for vitamin D sufficiency, it can be challenging to accurately define and address deficiency.
    On the other hand, they try to determine magnesium deficiency trough a blood test, but magnesium is not stored in blood, it is stored in bones and cells. 😊

    I'm having a hard time finding magnesium citrate in the 1:1 form (not the 3:2 form which is chalky/sandy, basically insoluble, no citrusy taste), which is supposed to have the citrusy taste and is easily dissolvable in water. Does anyone have any recent success acquiring such a powder? I'm interested in the laxative effect of MgCitrate but this 3:2 version just ain't delivering

    What about mag citrate in saline solution. How many fl. ounces would be beneficial? Bottle says 290 mg per fl oz. I'm guessing 1-2 fl oz. Thanks for your videos.

    • @OswaldDigestiveClinic
      @OswaldDigestiveClinic  3 місяці тому +1

      Begin with 1fl oz(290mg), if that is not supporting your symptoms, increase to find what works best for you.

    Should I drink more water when using magnesium citrate as a laxative?

    • @OswaldDigestiveClinic
      @OswaldDigestiveClinic  6 місяців тому

      Not necessary if you are drinking at least 64oz of water per day. If you are having loose stools or diarrhea, reduce the mag citrate, this is when you would need more water.

    68 year old male here. I don't have a hard stool. I have a soft stool that is hard to pass. I think the Magnesium citrate is going to be the best help I have had, so far. On the bottle, mine says take with a meal. It is the NOW brand. I have been taking 400 mg in the morning and another 200 mg around noon. I haven't had any diarrea from this. But I have been able to go to the bathroom without a lot of straining, like I was. I go once every other day now. My primary care physician told me I could take 800 mg a day. I haven't needed that yet. Sometimes to avoid straining I will use a fleet liquid glycerin, which also works very well when you need to go, but can't.

    There is no “long-term” solution for IBS-C constipation. What is it? Prescription medication? How is that better than making magnesium? Increasing fiber and water in the diet doesn’t do it either. Walking and exercise? Nope, that might work for someone with very occassional constipation, but not IBS-C.

    • @OswaldDigestiveClinic
      @OswaldDigestiveClinic  2 місяці тому

      IBS-C may have many different causes, it will be more helpful to get to the root cause and triggers to your IBS.
