For those who are interested.
This is the 5th day of doing the following.
15 grams of Ascorbic Acid powder at a time was previously causing me problems with excess gas.
Using Digital Jewellers Scales. I now mix 1500mg of pure Magnesium Hydroxide powder with 15grams of pure Ascorbic Acid powder into 250ml of warm water & stir for about a minute then drink the lot on an empty stomach.
I have done this 4 times a day so far.
For me, gas has SIGNIFICANTLY reduced.
Magnesium Hydroxide = 41.7% elemental magnesium
1500mg of Magnesium Hydroxide = 625mg of elemental magneium
Material read suggest that the body has trouble digesting over 200mg of Magnesium at a time.
I obviously am exceeding my RDA of Magnesium & will slowly reduce the amount per dose over the next few days.
Excess magnesium = much softer stools.
Milk of Magnesia is 8% magnesium hydroxide in pure water if you cant get or dont want to use pure powder.
The above solution appears to be Magnesium Ascorbate which can also be bought if desired.
So far its seems to be a very good way of reducing gas, getting good levels of magnesium & Vit C.
Any feedback is welcome/encouraged.
