I noticed that jackiet’s last question was not answered about which magnesium to take. I have asked this question as well to a few doctors recently. I’ve had different answers. It’s interesting to know that there are several types of Magnesium & they each have different purposes or protections depending on an individual’s medical issues. For instance one may be recommended because it is much easier to digest than another. As a lay person, I can only say, it might be a good idea to find a nutritionist who knows the differences so if you try it, you are not creating more negative issues.

I was asked by a poster which magnesium I take for PVCs.
I answered the post that I take Citrate form. I also posted this recommendation to take the Citrate form came from my electrophysiologist (EP) at Mayo. This EP is the director of electrophysiology and pace clinic at Mayo Jacksonville.
I asked why that form and was told most easily absorbed. He did say some take form digestive help for same reason. I was also told if caused digestive issues the Glycimate (spell) was also easily absorb. I was advised to take 400 mg daily.
With any post regarding supplemental taking it is important to remind those considering supplements to check with their doctors to make sure applicable to them and will not contradict medications or mental or physical conditions.
Example: I was seeing posters recommending potassium supplments. I check with my EP and said no do not take any additional postassium as my blood test showed I was at the high normal limit for it.
