A member asked:

Whats the best magnesium supplement over the counter? i brought 100 mg magnesium citrate and was wondering if thats sufficient enough. thank you. ive been having leg cramps and diet doesnt have much of magnesium

A doctor has provided 1 answer

400mg daily: It appears the main issue is leg cramps. Magnesium, calcium and potassium are the main culprits, if electrolytes are depleted, although there are other causes. Adequate hydration with water and/or electrolyte solutions can help, stretching before the sport, and strengthening muscles including endurance training will also help. Typical magnesium supplementation is 400mg daily. Excess causesdiahhrea
