What is a good magnesium supplement to take? what is a good dosage to start?

Magnesium supplement: It is smart of you to check. Some magnesium supplements e.g. Magnesium oxide are cheap but not well absorbed. Good one is magnesium malate. Take enough to get 200 mg of elemental magnesium per day up to 400 mg per day.
