CONSTIPATION AND DIRRHEA

Constipation and diarrhea can sometimes be regulated by natural means. Calcium is needed to build strong bones and for many neurological functions. Magnesium with calcium builds stronger bones then magnesium alone. Calcium and magnesium are combined in one tablet. For most people the combination results in a normal bowel movement. If it does not try the following.

If you are constipated the addition of 500 mg of (elemental) magnesium as magnesium citrate or magnesium gluconate, once or twice a day may relieve constipation.

If you have frequent soft bowel movements you might try 500 mg of calcium twice a day.

If the condition persists you should see your doctor.
