Product Description
Binders like activated charcoal and bentonite clay are effective at what they do, but they're also known for slowing things down on the way out. Magnesium Hydroxide is a straightforward way to keep things moving, whether you're pairing it with a binder protocol or just dealing with the GI disruption that comes with travel or a schedule change.
Magnesium Hydroxide delivers 700mg of magnesium hydroxide (266mg elemental magnesium) per two-capsule serving, using an osmotic mechanism to draw water into the intestines rather than stimulating contractions the way some other laxatives do.
Works With Your Gut, Not Against It – Magnesium hydroxide draws water into the intestines to soften stool and increase volume, rather than forcing contractions the way stimulant laxatives do, which tends to be gentler on your system overall.
Pairs Naturally With a Binder Routine – Since binders like activated charcoal and clay are known to slow things down, adding this alongside them can help offset that effect instead of leaving you to deal with it on your own.
A Simple, Single-Ingredient Capsule – Just magnesium hydroxide in a plant-based capsule, so there's nothing else to account for if you're already tracking several other supplements.
Magnesium Hydroxide delivers 700mg of magnesium hydroxide per two-capsule serving, providing 266mg of elemental magnesium. It works through an osmotic mechanism, drawing water into the intestines to increase stool volume and hydration, a different mechanism than stimulant laxatives that trigger intestinal contractions directly.
How to Use Magnesium Hydroxide
Dose: Take 2 capsules daily, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
Note: This isn't intended for long-term daily use without medical guidance, and it can interact with certain antibiotics, so space it at least 2 hours from tetracycline or quinolone-class antibiotics if you're taking either. Talk to your physician before use if you have kidney disease, since magnesium can accumulate with impaired kidney function, or if you're pregnant or breastfeeding. Keep out of reach of children.

Quicksilver Scientific Magnesium Hydroxide FAQ's
Everything you need to know about Quicksilver Scientific Magnesium Hydroxide.
It's a gentle constipation-support supplement for GI regularity. Two capsules provide 700mg of magnesium hydroxide, which draws water into your intestines to soften stool and support healthy bowel movements.
Instead of forcing your gut with a stimulant, magnesium hydroxide works through gentle osmotic action, pulling water in to add hydration and volume. That's a milder mechanism, which is why it's been a long-used option for occasional constipation.
Take 2 capsules daily, or as directed by your healthcare provider. Many people take it in the evening so it works overnight. Keep it out of reach of children.
Yes, and it's often used that way. Binders like charcoal and bentonite clay tend to be constipating, so adding 1 to 2 capsules of magnesium hydroxide helps keep things moving and supports toxin elimination during a detox protocol.
Two capsules deliver 266mg of elemental magnesium (63% of the daily value) from 700mg of magnesium hydroxide. Keep in mind this form is meant for bowel regularity, not general magnesium replenishment, so it's not a swap for a muscle-and-sleep magnesium like glycinate.
