magnesium citrate or oxide?

I know due to reading on here that we should be careful with letting our bodies become dependent on things but for cases of occasional monthly constipation which is better to take magnesium oxide or magnesium citrate? I've been advised before to take the twinlabs ones - which I believe are oxide but haven't tried them yet.

 

Any info would be kindly appreciated..

Hey Molly I use the Twinlab Magnesium.  They work well. I don't use them very often but when I do I usually only take a three. I think Dr. B told me I could take more but I felt like it was a lot.

I take magnesium regularly, it's the only way my system moves.
