This is the kind an herbalist told me to take. It also has DiMagnesium Malate in it. I was reading about the Malate in the other thread (Melanie, Marnie, etc.).

Malate seems ok but I didn't know about Glycinate and Lysinate.

Isn't this confusing??

(This product is called OptiMag, made by Xymogen, and usually requires a health care provider to get it to you. It's very clean, with no allergens in the capsule).

I'd love any info on it that anyone knows. Thank you!

I get diarrhea from most magnesium supplements. Someone suggested (on another board) magnesium glycinate chelated. I have absolutely no problem with this and now can even take increased doses up to 600 mg. I buy mine from Prohealth solutions.

i also take glycinate 400-600mg and have no GI problems. Just don't know if it works as well on lyme as citrate.
