So if someone could give experience with different products from different sites it would be very much appreciated.I would recommend Carlson's for magnesium glycinate. Carlson's in general is an excellent brand. You can find it at Vitamin Shoppe or Amazon (from Vitamin Shoppe).
I usually shop at iherb (now called PapaNature). I've had very good service from them and although I'm not familiar with all of their brands, most of them are ones I consider reputable such as Source Naturals, Enzymatic Therapy, Natural Factors. Their prices are good too though sometimes you can find something on sale at Amazon.
The Vitamin Shoppe is another place I use.
I avoid buying supplements in grocery stores or the like unless it's something simple like Vitamin C.
If price is not a consideration, I'd recommend Life Extension Foundation products.
