So why would they add magnesium stearate to such a great product with other good healthy ingredients?

I do not know the answer. My wife has been using this product for years and has no problems. Check out an article "The Facts About Magnesium Stearate" by Byron J. Richards.

I can't answer that for you, don't have a clue. The only reason I ordered these was because I have digestive issues sometimes anyway...and lately have been on several antibiotics and wanted some 'fauna and flora' in my tummy...helps in digestion.

I don't know. It does have a variety of natural trace minerals which would have to be healthy. It tastes really good.

Yes it is. Per the label: NO added: sugar, starch, sodium, yeast, soy, corn, wheat, dairy, egg, fragrance, artificial colors, flavors and preservatives. Other ingredients: Magnesium stearate and gelatin.

The ingredients are listed on the package. If Ms. L is asking specifically to why I take the product Calm, the answer is slightly different. My review was that I take Calm, because my cardiologist prescribed magnesium for me to improve heart contractility. Although Calm contains other ingredients too, it is the magnesium in this product my cardiologist said I need for my heart. The rest of the ingredients are a bonus for me. This product has improved my heath status.

I have no idea but there is some very unhealthy ingredient in there i am guessing.

I agree with the previous answer. It is wonderful in making magnesium oil, foot or bath soaks and in magnesium body butter and lotion.

It is actually okay to have calcium in the product. They recommend having calcium and/or potassium in it because it helps your body process it better.

I might add, the Natural Calm magnesium supplement, although flavored,is a good thing but does not taste that good to me, so I take the delicious Vitafusion afterwards, kind of like a reward!

It's a powder form in a gelatin or silica capsule, which I think contains magnesium stearate (too much over a long period of time can be bad for you).

Adding lotion might interfere with your skins ability to absorb and distribute the magnesium. I use pure coconut oil afterwards and that keeps my skin from drying out. I'm actually used to it now and don't need to do it very often. Hope that helps!

I don't see this information on the bottle. However, the bottle does reflect magnesium stearate as an "Inactive Ingredient". Hope this helps you.

No, the product does not indicate of having any magnesium stearate in it, but this product sure promotes diarrhea even though it is not suppose to. Be aware! Ingredients: Magnesium 150 mg (from 2084 mg of "Magtein" magnesium I-threonate)Other Ingredients: Modified cellulose (vegetarian capsule)

I looked at Michael Blue Jay's Vegetarian guide. Magnesium stearate is listed under "possibly from animals" but not "definitely from animals". You may very well be right! See the list here. http://michaelbluejay.com/veg/ingredients.html
