I’m taking magnesium caltrate but I ordered magnesium threonate to help with brain fog. Are these different? Do people take both? Or does threonate replace caltrate. Thanks I’m new to Vit and supplements!

I'm taking magnesium to help with the headaches... as far as I can tell its working.. I'm not sure the difference though.

Thank you! I checked the bottle again and it’s nature made magnesium which is magnesium oxide. I wonder if this has the same effect?

Thanks Mandy! Is it possible to feel relief soon after taking mag threonate? I started taking it yesterday and felt much better last night and even better today.

Yes it’s possible to notice right away. 🙂 also higher doses of vitamin d3 is a good one for symptoms…pain, sleep, IBS and many more.
