Magnesium citrate is good for leg cramps, but it also has laxative qualities, which may be why Gatorade doesn't add it - they use monopotassium phosphate as their electrolyte. There is a brand called Prime Energy drinks which have magnesium citrate but they also have sucralose and acesulfame potassium - artificial sweeteners - because they bill themselves as "sugar free".
Interesting. A brand of chelated magnesium tabs I bought changed their formula from citrate to magnesium glycinate. Maybe that's why. As near as I can tell the glycinate is about half as effective, so I bought a different brand. But maybe I'll try going back to it.
Then again at my age, getting a consistent consistency is more tmi.
TMI but hooray for that. My new job pays for the drugs that my doc wanted me on years ago but those drugs do have some side effects. Did you know wombats poop cubes?
Little known facts. Wombats stack the cube up on rocks to mark their territory. So cubes have an obvious advantage. But they don't poop cubes because their arsehole is square; they poop cubes because their lower intestine is square.

We buy a sports drink powder that contains magnesium citrate and it makes a huge difference for leg cramps and twitchy legs at night. Gatorade etc. don't have bioavailable magnesium, which baffles me.
The last batch of one flavour said "Less sugar". Great, it really is too sweet. You guessed it. Two different numbers representing sweeteners that I suppose I should look up. Assuming one is stevia.

Ads for music festivals that don't tell you where on Planet Earth they are.
Stevia
Products that say "no artificial sweeteners" when they have stevia.
Products that say "less sugar" when they have stevia instead.
Products that have stevia which may be considered natural but then find out it's "Reb A" or "Reb M" which might be derived from a plant but so is heroin.
Products that are made from bamboo but not bamboo fiber, it's viscose (rayon).
Products that don't say what they're made of until you see it's polyester but with a trademarked name that lets them call it "FartWeave" or whatever instead of "Ball-Shrinking Plastic."
I'm sure I will add to this list but I want all of these problems added to the new Legislative Agenda in Washington right away.

When the grocery shopper in front of me in the '1-12 items' fast lane has more than 12 items. This morning, the shopper had 15 or 16 items.
So i came up with a solution. The system for that lane should not accept more than 12 items per transaction. It shouldn't be up to the clerk to count. As soon as the clerk processes 12 items, the next item should cause a light to come on and/or a buzzer sound. And the clerk can no longer process any further items for that transaction. The shopper needs to take the extra items and go back to the end of the lane to pay for those extra items.
This one can go right up there with Red Dragon's flip-flop noise.
Coffee/tea slurpers. Yes, I know it's hot. You can still take cautious sips without slurping. In a perfect world, I wouldn't let it bother me, but......it's not a perfect world.

I'm getting really tired of people passing off regular dogs as "service dogs." It's ruining the cred of actual service animals. Service dogs don't bark (unless you're seizuring/PTSDing), and especially not every time someone passes by the door. And if you're going to use the "Emotional Service Animal" excuse to bring a dog into a cat-only complex.....then he/she better damn well behave and not bark excessively. That's the law. I looked it up.
Why the fuck couldn't he just move into a place that allows dogs???
