i started experiencing strong effects 5-10m after taking it last night, which is apparently too soon for it to have actually been absorbed, so now idk what's going on or why

sounds deeply unlikely, it takes way longer than that could be coincidence, or could be effects on digestion (magnesium oxide is primarily used as an *antacid* or laxative, AFAIK)

i just had a very nice poop so now i'm thinking about the laxative thing. apparently magnesium "relaxes your bowels and pulls water into your intestines" which seems like it could have interesting effects on a person such as myself who chronically holds tension in the gut 🤔

seems like part of the response may be learned, like it's anticipating the future effect?

hate to be your hippie friend, but this is not uncommon in some spiritual circles and considered kind of an energetic thing

Sounds like you took your daily placebo, works a treat doesn't it?
