Magnesium malate supplements with the fewest additives
Magnesium malate might be a good form of magnesium for those with fibromyalgia. Here's a suggestion for people wanting to avoid too many additives (I haven't yet decided on a capsule suggestion). If you don't have a strong preference for the malate form, I'd suggest homemade magnesium bicarbonate liquid or magnesium glycinate capsules.
Suggestion for straight magnesium malate powder
(thanks for finding this, Lulu)
- silica-free / silicon-dioxide-free
- titanium dioxide-free
- hypromellose-free / hydroxypropyl methylcellulose-free
