What's the difference between Magnesium and Magnesium Citrate??

Magnesium Citrate and magnesium glycinate have equal bio-availability. Taking more than 150 Mg of magnesium citrate per day (36% of RDA) is not recommended because of the potential of this form of magnesium to cause diarrhea. Additionally, most magnesium citrate uses citrate from mold grown on corn. For the record, most people allergic to peanuts are actually allergic to the mold that is common on peanuts, and most people allergic to strawberries are actually allergic to the mold commonly on strawberries. If you do not have any mold allergies, taking one of these capsules per day (providing 32% of RDA) to prevent constipation should be safe. It is safe to take larger amounts of magnesium glycinate, which is the most highly recommended for constipation and anxiety issues resulting in insomnia. 400 Mg of magnesium glycinate provides 96% of the RDA of magnesium. Magnesium malate provides 18% of RDA for 500 Mg. It is the best form of magnesium for energy metabolism. Typically, a person taking magnesium malate would take 1500 Mg of magnesium malate, providing 54% of RDA. Magnesium taurate is best for heart and brain health, including migraines. With magnesium taurate 1500 Mg provides less than 29% of RDA. Magnesium oxide is about 4% bio-available. This is about half the bio-availability of magnesium taurate, and the recommended dosage of magnesium oxide is only 500 Mg.

How big are the pills? Trying to find something my 13 year old can swallow, she isn't able to swallow large pills.

I canʻt swallow big pills either, but these are CAPSULES, which makes them easier to swallow. The caps are a little under 3/4 inch long. I wouldnʻt be able to swallow a pill that big, but again, the capsule makes it easier because they are softer and more pliable.

Price just went up from $7.99 to $11.99 - a 50% increase??? For real?

Hello there. We apologize for any disappointment in the price increase of the NOW Foods Magnesium Citrate. Please know that the $11.99 price is not from us; you are looking at a different seller's price. If you view all of the other stores that sell this same product, you will see that ours is offered at $10.19 per bottle. Please know that the wholesaler has raised their price of this item, therefore the retail price of the product has also been increased; however, we are still doing our best to offer the lowest price for the product. We hope this helps!

what is the country of origin and any third party tests done for lead & heavy metals?

This material comes from either Germany or Austria. It has been tested by the supplier for heavy metals and retested by our own labs using ICP-MS, the most sophisticated metal testing available. This material meets the USP monograph for purity, which means that it has undergone a full battery of tests specified by that document to assure purity.
