Re: Syl - What's your take on 5-HTP?       12/05/09 12:54 PM Edit Reply Quote Windchimes Reged: 09/05/09 Posts: 581 Loc: Northern California I have IBS-D, so anything with extra magnesium in it exacerbates D symptoms for me. I take a liquid multi-vitamin daily and I personally avoid anything further orally that has added magnesium in it... like 'think Milk of Magnesia'! Who needs an added laxative when they've already got the 'runs' or a tendency towards that? Magnesium might be helpful for those with IBS-C, though could also create a nightmare for those of us with IBS-D. Magnesium is a LAXATIVE. I do enjoy a warm soak in the bathtub with Epsom Salts now and then (magnesium salts), though I don't react internally for having done so. This sure does soothe aches and pains, relax the body, and make the skin feel soft. -------------------- Senior female, IBS-D, presently stable thanks to Heather & Staff Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
