> Thanks for the link. It was very informative. I am going to my local health food store and look for magnesium glycinate. Looks like my magesium oxide is pretty useless.

George Eby has a section on that site where he explains why he recommends magnesium taurate over magnesium glycinate these days. I didn't really understand it, but respect the depth of his research and personal experimentation.

Magnesium glycinate was great for me when I first started taking it. I think I was way overloaded with calcium and the sedating properties of the glycine were soothing to my over-excited brain cells. It was some time before I began to feel that magnesium glycinate made me sleepy.

I would encourage you to try different types. Magnesium glycinate may be available in your health food store, probably KAL brand (Eby recommended Carlson's brand) but if it's not, magnesium malate will probably be available and that is a good absorbable kind also. (And not so sedating.)

I haven't seen magnesium taurate too much in the stores, but you can order it from Amazon or Vitamin Shoppe that I know of (Cardiovascular Research brand is what Eby recommends).

And don't forget magnesium orotate, which is often specifically recommended for heart problems.

I hope it works for you. :)
