A member asked:
How much water weight can you lose from drinking magnesium citrate?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not much: Magnesium citrate is a saline laxative which works by drawing water into the small intestine even though you will loose some water but it will not cause any significant weight loss, and whatever loss of water, is replaced pretty soon.Net effect no weight loss.
