I don't take calcium on the assumption that I get enough from my diet (I eat some dairy every day, mostly raw milk cheese and other fermented dairy, and lots of green veggies), I take 300-400 mg of magnesium every day. From what I've read most people are very deficient in magnesium and excessive in calcium. Plus I thought calcium and magnesium competed with each other for uptake, thus I never saw the logic in combining them in a supplement?
Nonetheless I am open to experimenting, I'll try that, extra daytime magnesium, can't hurt...
I've been eating "wrong" for 35 years, can't expect to get this all perfect in 3 months, right?
That's very interesting, thanx for the info! I will get that supplement and try it out. I am becoming more convinced that it is a monitor and/or eye thing, the more I think about it. I do have a flat screen, but it is pretty small, I'm on it all day, and this room is lit by flourescents with little to no natural light. I will test both theories and check back soon. I will call my lovely hmo doc and schedule an eye exam tomorrow... and go to Lassen's in search of thd cal/mag/phos supplement tonite.
Best of luck, and keep us posted! ;-)
