Dude, magnesium citrate (must be citrate, other forms not as absorbable). Half of one of these will make you shit like a champion. Like fwoop-fwoop-fwoop-pee-FLUSH-done! And make sure you're drinking plenty of water.
Only sold online or in specialty vitamin shops. Typical drug stores only carry the crappier forms.

> I know this sounds dumb because that info is pretty clear (and helpful, thank you for that!!!)...so if I do a cup of broth with one teaspoon of the starter (650 mg) and then one teaspoon of sea salt in my water once a day, I should be a little less than 3000 right? From what I can find one teaspoon of sea salt has 2000-2300mg of sodium.
No worries, being unafraid to admit you're unsure is the only way to learn. Happy to help! :-)
I think that would get you close to 3000mg, but if you're working out a lot or consuming ANY caffeine -- I'd increase that by a lot. I consider 3000mg to be a good baseline, for all individuals. I routinely double than number to 6000mg on my extended fasts and actually feel BETTER than when I don't.
> Also, should I be seeking potassium and magnesium from a multi-vitamin?
I get my Potassium and Magnesium from these...
Haha! Nahhh not really any different side effects compared to subutex. Perhaps some more anxiety until they upped my dose but that helped stabilise everything :)
Yeah most of the time I’ll put some mouthwash then plop it into a nice damp patch and it’s done in about 15. Not always as good when I’m travelling though!
But I think overall I prefer it to Subutex despite its slight downsides when I take into consideration the moral/cost aspect also.
Nahhh don’t mind it! Constipation isn’t any worse than Subutex for me and I find - as I always have with opiates - 2 to 3 of this bad boys a day will keep things nice and soft Solgar Magnesium Citrate Tablets - Pack of 120 Solgar Magnesium Citrate Tablets - Pack of 120 https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B012T97SDQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_hlH9LmEtdZMNi
I suppose magnesium citrate is a laxative in a way but it’s also a supplement and at that kinda dose is okay long term not like the pharmacy grade stuff you can’t take that daily for sure! Also gotta watch the fibres a bit have a banana or two a day also for good measure!
On a day with a long haul flight I just don’t take em then I can guarantee I won’t need a dump on the flight which is awesome 😂😂
My statement is correct. You're confusing actual weight with a "serving".
The label must meet a FDA labelling standard which shows the % of the RDA in a "serving" but a serving size is a variable. A serving can be anything from one tablet to the entire bottle.
The weight of a serving of magnesium oxide that contains 100% of the RDA is different than the weight of a serving of magnesium citrate that contains 100% of the RDA.
A quarter teaspoon of mag oxide contains as much magnesium as two huge tablets of citrate, plus the binders and fillers.
Different companies format their labels differently too. Manufacturers can format their label differently and still meet the FDA requirement.
So yes two different brands listing 600mg of X should contain 600mg of X then additional weight to account for the compounds actual weight.
But consider these two labels; NOW Mag Oxide vs Solgar Mag citrate. Yes, both show that a serving is 100% of the RDA but they indicate that in different ways.

vs
https://www.amazon.com/Solgar-Magnesium-Absorbable-Promotes-Suitable/dp/B012T97SDQ/
Look at the shipping weights for each product. The Citrate is 1.1 pounds the Oxide is 8 ounces. Yet the Oxide, which weighs half the amount of the citrate contains over 400 "servings"
There are also different grades of a compound. There exists high elemental magnesium in high quality mag citrate vs low elemental mag in low quality mag citrate, etc. different densities of elemental magnesium across various grades of the compound.
Another example is Lithium Orotate. The labels list the total weight not the elemental lithium weight. In fact, that's notated on the label of most lithium orotate supplements, as well as many other supplements
"Lithium (as lithium Orotate) 120mg (4.6mg as elemental lithium)"
