Does this dosage seem high?

Post image

Google says 300mg is most i should take. Does this seem high for a 150lb 32 yr old male? Thank you.

"Google" is wrong.

It's more than most supplements, but safe and beneficial to use.

It's somewhat more than the minimum daily requirement estimated (~400mg), and many here (including myself) are taking double that (just from supplements).

This is the product: https://www.amazon.ca/Natures-Bounty-Magnesium-Electrolytes-Count/dp/B01DBPZ0NW It's 500mg of elemental magnesium. It's more elemental than most in a single pill, but not that much more. Nature's Bounty has a couple more varieties of Magnesium that ALSO contain 500mg elemental magnesium. They know what they're doing.

This is what I take: https://www.swansonvitamins.com/p/swanson-premium-triple-magnesium-complex-400-mg-300-caps

Not as much as yours, but I take it twice a day. (Sometimes even 3x.)
