The label says it has magnesium glycinate and magnesium oxide.If so what is the ratio of the two?

Hi patricia k. cummings,Thank you for your great question. Our magnesium supplement contains 81% magnesium bisglycinate and 19% magnesium oxide. Magnesium oxide is used as a buffering agent and it does not affect the way the magnesium bisglycinate is used by your body. We have ensured that our magnesium supplement is in a highly absorbable form which is gentle on your stomach, and we have been thrilled by the positive feedback we receive which confirms this. If you have any other question, please don't hesitate to ask,Kind Regards,Sarah Jennings - Pure Micronutrients

How much magnesium glycinate is recommended to prevent migraines?

Hi Lisa,Thank you for your question. There isn't a blanket amount of magnesium that you should take to prevent migraines, as everybody's needs are different, depending on your health, diet and lifestyle. Saying that, I would recommend taking a higher dose of magnesium initially (300mg twice a day) and if that helps with your migraines, reduce the dose to 300mg a day. I also find that B vitamins can really help, specifically B2 (200mcg), B6 (12.5mg), B9 (250mcg) and B12 (200mcg), as well as CoQ10. This combination can really help with migraine prevention. Good luck and if you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to ask.Kind regards,Sarah Jennings - Pure Micronutrients

Can these be opened and taken in water or a smoothie?

Hi T.Evan,Thank you for your questions. Our Pure Magnesium capsules can be opened and added to water or a smoothie. Some people like to mix it with honey on a spoon, or yoghurt and take it that way. The taste is quite mild so it is just a matter of mixing it with something else that you like! I hope that helps, and if you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to ask.Kind regards,Sarah Jennings - Pure Micronutrients
