The Benefit of Multiform Magnesium
The best source of magnesium is naturally occurring and obtained from the diet. Various forms of magnesium make use of different uptake sites in the gut with 40% of magnesium absorption taking place throughout the intestines. Plant-based magnesium, like that found in E-Z Mg (TM), is considered ideal as it consists of a collection of various magnesium forms (i.e. multiform). Since plant-based magnesium contains multiple forms, it helps take the guesswork out of which kind of magnesium to
take.
Magnesium for Depression
A controlled study of magnesium shows clinically significant improvement.
"...it's the bacteria in the soils that enable plants to absorb magnesium, so all sorts of environmental influences can deplete magnesium in our food, from pesticides that kill off bacteria to potassium-based fertilizers (can be taken up by plants in lieu of magnesium and calcium). Food processing, antacids, diuretics, caffeine, and alcohol can also decrease magnesium absorption. For these reasons, the modern human tends to need more magnesium and get less, leaving a lot of people
chronically depleted." --Emily Deans M.D., Psychology Today, January 28th, 2018
