Are you saying you can dissolve the MoM first, and then add the fizz? And what's this 4 liter flagon you're talking about? How could that fit?

You first make up the concentrated solution with MagHydroxide in cold fizzy water.
You put it back in the fridge and shake it a bit 30mins later maybe again if the sides of the bottle haven't gone crinkly or the mix is still cloudy.
You then add a third of the concentrate into the 4litres of plain water.
So you now have 4anda third liters of magnesium rich water.
I then keep this in the pantry and use it to fill a sodastream bottle that I fizz and keep in the fridge. So I have sparking magnesium rich mineral water for next to nothing.
You don't have to refizz if you prefer plain unsparkling water.

Bicarbonate, but not potassium, had a favorable effect on bone resorption and calcium excretion. This suggests that increasing the alkali content of the diet may attenuate bone loss in healthy older adults.
