Magnesium Water UNDOCTORED Style

The most highly absorbable form of magnesium is magnesium bicarbonate. Because of an unusual tendency to absorb water in dry form (e.g., tablet or powder), no supplement manufacturer sells it. But you can make it in your own kitchen quite easily using readily available ingredients. Use Magnesium Water in place of magnesium supplements—i.e., don’t take both—to avoid long-term magnesium overload. A 4-ounce (1/2-cup) serving of Magnesium Water provides 90 milligrams of elemental magnesium; 4 ounces twice per day adds 180 milligrams of elemental magnesium to your daily intake. You can drink up to 16 ounces per day (8 ounces, or 1 cup, twice per day), which provides a total of 360 milligrams of magnesium per day, especially useful during the first few weeks of your Undoctored experience to rapidly restore magnesium. Because of better absorption, Magnesium Water yields faster relief from muscle cramps and migraine headaches, even abnormal heart rhythms. Such benefits are also more likely to occur with the 360-milligram-per-day total dose. Note that the milk of magnesia used in the recipe must be unflavored, as flavoring will block the reaction creating the magnesium bicarbonate. Label your bottle of Magnesium Water to prevent unsuspecting people from drinking it (which can result in diarrhea). Magnesium Water does not need to be refrigerated if consumed within 1 week. Because the reaction involves carbonic acid (from carbonated seltzer) and magnesium oxide (milk of magnesia),...
