Natural Calm Magnesium

Question
I have recently purchased Natural Calm to help treat constipation. Would you please respond with information about how this product should be taken, long term effects of your product – if any and what other supplements would work well with your product.

Answer
Many people purchase Natural Calm to help treat constipation. Most laxatives are made from magnesium oxide which is a low cost source of magnesium. Natural Calm is a high quality, highly absorbable form of magnesium called magnesium citrate.

Most people are magnesium deficient and the main purpose of taking Natural Calm is to supplement your body with magnesium. Magnesium is necessary for good bone development (your bones are 2:1 Calcium:Magnesium), nerve function (allows you to relax and reduce anxiety) and muscle function (low magnesium is responsible for muscle aches). Low magnesium levels can contribute to constipation.

After your body gets the optimal level of magnesium it needs, it will put the excess into your colon. When it enters your colon, the net effect is that it hydrates your colon; i.e. makes your stools watery.

By taking a high quality magnesium, like Natural Calm Magnesium Citrate, you have the added benefit that your magnesium deficient body can get a nutrient it really needs and then put the excess to the colon. A low cost form like magnesium oxide will mostly go straight to the colon as the body will not be able to use it much as a nutrient.
We believe that you should increase your magnesium intake until your stools become comfortably loose. Then you are at your optimal level. You may need to increase or decrease your levels as your stress levels, brain usage and physical activity change. Often you need to start at a lower lever until your body gets used to it and then slowly increase.
We believe that it is important to make sure that you are consuming enough water, as water is necessary for all bodily functions including elimination. Having magnesium hydrating your colon and not having enough water to hydrate it will find your efforts counterproductive.

Fiber is also a big factor in keeping you naturally regular. Vegetables are an excellent source of food fiber, as well as flax seed.

We do not believe that Natural Calm should be used as a laxative substitute for a poor diet.

Natural Calm works well with the Liquid Organic Life Vitamins

There are no negative long term effects of using Natural Calm if used as directed.
