I have read a lot of good things about the malic acid, magnesium, and vitamin D combo. I looked for malic acid at the local pharmacy but ended up ordering it on line. The malic acid is supposed to help with the tender points. Has anybody on here tried this and has it worked?
I take 4,000 IUs of vitamin D3 a day as well and think that has helped my pain. I read in an alternative health newsletter that your body uses around 2,000 IUs a day so you need to take more if you want to build up your reserves.
This maybe means I'm going to ache for another week.
I take magnesium but there is no malate in it,thanks for the post and I will ask my doctor, so glad to hear that it is helping you.
The one thing about magnesium you have to careful of is that it's a laxative. You can tell when your body has gotten enough as it will give you diarrhea.
