For magnesium can I ONLY dose magnesium chloride or do I need to have the mix of sulfate too? And how can I raise my calcium with home remedies, I don’t want to buy several pounds of calc crystals or something like I did with my magnesium chloride. Was it a waste considering I ?NEED? To mix it with sulfate which I don’t have or is it ok?


Calcium:390
Mg1200
 
You cannot use calcium sulfate for dosing. It is not soluble enough to make stock solutions.

Mag sulfate is typically cheap as USP Epsom salt at a drug store. No reason to not use it.
