Magnesium is only transmitted across the intestinal mucous when bound to a specific protein carrier, as it is in live food and in foodstate form. Unless it is in this form, not only will it not be transported, but it may block absorption of other magnesium molecules and even affect the absorption of other metal elements such as iron, zinc and calcium.
