If I take up to 2 doses of Creatine per day, being mindful of magnesium, will it have a magnesium citrate like effect?Updated 6 days ago

Not necessarily. The guidance to be mindful of magnesium is mainly about total daily intake across all sources, not that Creatine itself is expected to produce a magnesium citrate-type effect.

Many people are also using separate magnesium supplements or electrolyte blends, and it’s easy for total magnesium intake to add up without realizing it. Sensitivity can vary quite a bit from person to person. Some individuals tolerate 400 - 500 mg of supplemental magnesium daily without issue, while others find their comfort limit is closer to around 350 mg per day.

Because responses can vary, it’s always best to pay attention to how your body reacts and adjust accordingly. If you have specific concerns or underlying health conditions, consulting a healthcare professional is recommended.
