Guest guest Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 Milk of Magnesia is magnesium hydroxide which is a saline type laxative; the magnesia acts to pull salts or a saline solution into the intestines from the blood. This excessive fluid from your blood then provides a flushing or laxative action within the intestines. Products like Milk of Magnesia that actually pull salts out can possibly cause a loss of sodium resulting in an electrolyte deficiency. As Tony said there are much better ways to get magnesium. Transdermally from Ancient Minerals or orally from Magnesium Orotate which will transport the mineral to the mitochondria of the cell.
