Im new here so please bear with me....

I searched the archives and really didnt find what I was looking for regarding side effects of Magnesium.

Im IBS-C and just recently began taking Mag Oxide about 3 weeks ago. I take about 500-600 MG daily and it has changed my life quite alot. It does have a laxative effect on me...although sometimes not so strongly. But, i get daily relief and I can think clearly and function at a high rate.

My concerns are about what potential side effects Mag Ox may have. Nutriently am I washing away things I need? I take a multi vitamin and eat a very healthy diet...my BM is every morning once a day.

Also, do I need to be concerned about an addiction? Will my colon be able to function without this if i continue to use this?

As I said, the positives so far for me have been quite large. And, im really reluctant to go back to the pain and discomfort.

Help if you know any thing about the questions above.
