■ Additional Information in the Package Insert
- Constipation is caused by water deficiency in the intestines.
- When constipated, stool becomes hard due to lack of water, making defecation difficult. Providing sufficient water softens the stool and can promote natural bowel movements without irritating the intestines.
- 3A Magnesia utilizes magnesium’s property of attracting more water into the intestines than dietary fiber, softening stool.
- Since it does not stimulate the intestines, it is gentle on the stomach even with continued use, less likely to cause dependency, and can be reduced once constipation is relieved.
- It uses highly water-retentive active magnesium oxide, providing gentle yet effective action.
- Effective way to take:
Drink one glass of water before bed.
While sleeping, magnesium gathers water in the intestines, softening stool, leading to comfortable bowel movements in the morning.
Start with a small dose initially; if bowel movements are not achieved, increase within the recommended range.
If stool becomes too loose, it indicates improvement; reduce the dose gradually.
Recommended for those with chronic constipation and elderly individuals.
- 3A Magnesia uses highly water-retentive active magnesium oxide (active magnesium oxide refers to magnesium with high water retention).
