Magnesium Carbonate

Also known as: Magnesite, MgCO

Magnesium carbonate is a naturally-occurring form of magnesium. In nature, it occurs as dolomite or magnesite and is ground into a fine powder for use in supplements. Because of its fine texture when ground, along with its superior mixability and solubility in water, magnesium carbonate is often used in calming magnesium powder drinks like Mellow Mag, our naturally-flavored, replenishing magnesium drink mix that’s perfect for helping you unwind at the end of a long day. While not as bioavailable as magnesium in its many other forms, magnesium carbonate is still useful in supporting the body during occasional bouts with heartburn and nausea.
