ddjohns83 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I have some powder magnesium that I have taken a couple of times but I'm turned off by the metallic taste which has stopped me from using it on more than one occasion. Does anyone have any suggestions on ways to improve the taste? Certain beverages they put it in other than water? Guzzle it fast? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megan Claydon Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I put it in just a few ounces of hot water and take it down quickly. I also brush my teeth as soon as I drink it so it won't ear on my enamel. Which brand are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan J Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I use Natural Calm unflavored and don't get that taste at all. Am I using too little?? I know there is citric acid in the unflavored which gives it that citrus taste but does it really cover that metallic taste you guys are talking about that well??

befabdaily Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Be sure that you drink it after it's finished fizzing, which can be speeded up by using warm water. If you let it have its little chemical reaction first it loses the really weird taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhmomi Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I like the Natural Calm mixed in hot/warm water with a squeeze of lemon juice. I much prefer drinking it warm in the evenings. Seems to add to the calming effect, at least mentally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abird Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I use magnesium oil or lotion. It is a lot easier to absorb than through the gut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MingoNW Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Where do you get the magnesium oil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirsteen Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I use magnesium oil or lotion. It is a lot easier to absorb than through the gut. Yes, I don't think I'll be taking the magnesium citrate again. I reailse now why they gave me it before my colonoscopy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
