A member asked:
Is it safe for a 17 year old to take magnesium l threonate?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mg safe: Magnesium-L-Threonate is the form of Mg that is absorbed best into the cells. It is good for our body and brain and is a cofactor in over 300 enzymes. It is safe and should be taken as directed. So if you do not eat a lot of leafy greens, like spinach, taking it as a supplement is safe. Just don't take it to excess.
