BA, do you have coconut water in the stores where you are?
I've found it is a really good way to get the magnesium and all the electrolytes into my system quickly. I've taken to keeping some cans by my bed so if I wake up feeling like I almost had a seizure coming on, I can chug some of that and go back to sleep very soundly. I often get headaches after one of these "rude awakenings" but the coconut water seems to quash that before it can get its teeth into my brain.
The other good thing about coconut water is that it is tasty enough, it probably wouldn't be difficult to get a child to have some.
