Hello! Welcome to HealthcareMagic!

I understand your concern.
Milk of magnesium stimulates bile to help break down fatty meals that also make you bloated.
It helps you with the bloating and with the cramps.
Try drinking one cup per day. Try taking 200 milligrams of magnesium daily.

Hope that clarifies your concerns. Thank you for the query.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
