I make my own sodium ascorbate with ascorbic acid and sodium bicarb. It's easy, I get the vitamin c off ebay and the baking soda from the store.


Is there a similar way to make magnesium ascorbate: ingredients easily available, room temp, etc?




I assume a [milk of magnesia](https://www.google.com/search?q=%22milk%20of%20magnesia%22), what is essentially suspension of [Mg(OH)2](http://Mg(OH)2) is commercially available for per oral usage as antacid or laxative.


Mixing with ascorbic acid solution will produce water and magnesium ascorbate.
