Quiessence Magnesium

Hello, Dr. Getty:

Fantasia has been on Quiessence Magnesium for about 3 months now. She is looking fabulous! She was initially on 3 scoops per day, and now I've reduced her to 2.5 scoops per day for the past 2 weeks or so. You mentioned once that Quiessence may not be needed long-term, so should I continue slowly reducing her daily dose and see what happens, or do you recommend having her on a maintenance dose long-term?

Thank you for all your help,
~Jennifer

Hi Jennifer!

So nice to hear good news!

I would suggest that you continue to "experiment" with the dosage until you get down to 1/2 scoop per day. She will likely need to remain on a small maintenance dosage.

Keep me posted!
