Doctor's Best High Absorption Magnesium Powder,White, 100% Chelated TRACCS, Not Buffered, Headaches, Sleep, Energy. Non-GMO, Vegan, Gluten Free, 200G, 7.1 Ounce (Pack of 1)

I agree with everyone who complains how horrible this tastes. I disagree with the person who says it is "medicine" and not supposed to taste like candy. First, it is not medicine, it is a supplement. Second, I don't think anyone expected this to taste like candy. I have had many supplements that don't taste horrible. Anyway, to be able to drink this without gagging, I take ice water, add a little lemon juice and a good teaspoon of maple syrup, stir it up and then add a scoop of this powder and stir it up again. It is more palatable. I did try it in a cup of hot tea with agave, and it only made my tea taste disgusting. When I am done with this container, I am going to purchase one of the flavored ones. Yes, it is more expensive because they add flavoring, but I'm spending money on trying to mix it with something else anyway. As far as whether the magnesium helps me -- I started using this because of getting muscle cramps in my legs every night. It seems since I've started taking it, the leg cramps have almost stopped. I purchased the powder because the tablets are too big. Sometimes I can swallow the tablet, but sometimes I start gagging and then cannot swallow them at all. Also, don't be fooled by other brands that state their magnesium is 200 mg or 400 mg. You have to look at how many mg "as magnesium glycinate." This brand is clear on its label what you are actually getting!

This works well and you feel the difference almost immediately. Goes well in most drinks. It's a bit sticky but once in your drink it's fine. Does have a slight aftertaste but it's not bad. Love how it helps my pain go away and muscles relax.

The taste really is terrible but I combined this with cherry wave emergen-c and it’s much more drinkable

Horrible taste. I can barely tolerate it when I add some lemon juice and Stevia. It also clumps and is hard to dissolve in water or orange juice. This powder has the tendency to make a big mess whenever I open the container. I do not recommend this at all.

I researched every type of magnesium available currently on Amazon. This was the purest one with no added magnesium stearate and other fillers, or magnesium citrate which can affect mineral balance in the body according to the Magnesium Advocacy Group (gotmag.org). Of course I proceeded to read the reviews and pretty much every review mentioned the bad taste of this product. Instead of being deterred I became curious to see how this product can really be that bad. Before this we were taking the Kal Activgels which I opened for the kids (as prescribed by their doctor) and which tasted so good that the kids enjoyed taking it. When I opened the can I first took a pinch and put it straight in my mouth to see exactly what the fuss is all about. The first thing I noticed was it tasted very alkaline. After a second, as I analyzed what the taste was, I realized it tasted a lot like baking soda, not rotting fish guts or anything else related to fish like some had mentioned. So if you are unsure whether to buy this or not, taste a little baking soda and see if you can tolerate the taste. I don’t think it’s bad at all. No, it’s not full of sugars and flavors. It’s a mineral. It’s medicine. It’s not supposed to taste like candy. Thank you Doctor’s Best for continuing to make a clean product despite the complaints. Please keep it pure. Next came the kids challenge. If so many adults report not being able to tolerate it, surely a 4 and 7 year old won’t touch it, right? I mixed their prescribed amount into a glass of Amazing Grass Green Superfood berry flavor mixed with water. It’s not sweet, just has a slight berry flavor. They both drank it down without a fight. I asked the 7 year old what he thought. He said “eh, not too bad I guess, it kind of tastes like seaweed, maybe seafood, like mussels, it’s not too good but it’s ok”. I also tasted it in that combination and my first thought was a slight seaweed flavor. It bad at all. Now I’m curious how my body handles it. My old glycinate was not being absorbed properly. I’m hoping this one will.

Tablets of magnesium has a lot of fillers and chemicals. They were doing more harm causing upset stomach. When i saw the ingridents in this product it metions none (only pure magnesium). Noticed a huge difference in my mental clarity and condiderably deceresed my migranes. I just mix 2 scoops in water and feel amazing. No artifical flavors or sweeteners. On my way to order second time. Very effextive.

This is a very good source of magnesium ,pure ,clean with no additives or capsule shells.It helps with relaxation and sleep .The only downside is the taste which is expected as this is not a flavored magnesium,this is pure original taste.Personally I don’t mind the taste ,I drink it down and forget about the taste .one has the option to add it to juices if you wish ,but then there are many other brands with flavored options.

Amazing quality

رغم ان المنتج كويس ولو تلاحظوا كمية الماغنيسيوم المثالية لكل جرعة، وتقارنوها بالكبسولات، فهذا المكمل يفوز بالتوفير والكمية، لكن اكبر مشكلة واجهتني هي الطعم والشعور بعد البلع، اذا تقدر تتحمل الطعم فأنت محظوظ، انا لم اتقبل لا الطعم ولا الشعور بعد البلع اللي يجي فالحلق. نصيحتي جمع شوية واشتري الكبسولات، صحيح اقل فائدة وأقل كمية وتحتوي مكونات إضافية زايدة، لكن الصراحة الطعم عائق كبير

U wont recommend this to anyone , it taste absloutly horrible , fishy , stinky I feel like throwing up every time i used it
