Frequently Asked Questions

Q:
Why is magnesium hydroxide in the Laxative-3 Blend™? Is it effective?
A:

Magnesium hydroxide is effective for the relief of occasional constipation.* It is an "osmotic laxative" and uses water to flush fecal matter out of the intestines. When water is drawn into the intestines, fecal matter absorbs the excess water as it forms into bowel movements. As this material swells, it puts pressure on the sides of the intestines, initiating peristalsis – the act of moving the bowels. It is as effective as stimulant laxatives such as cascara and senna.

Q:
Will I need to be concerned about cramping and urgency with the laxative?
A:
Not likely. Laxative-3 Blend™ gently but effectively cleanses the intestinal surfaces and promotes bowel function without the use of harsh, stimulant laxatives, such as senna and cascara.† The safety of magnesium hydroxide has been well established. It does not cause cramping or urgency, nor does it cause dependency.
