It will do in a pinch. We ordered this, because the place where I usually get my liposomal magnesium, they were out of stock. and they couldn't tell me when the next shipment would be in. and it was going to take a week to receive if I ordered online. I'm at Walmart site I could get this one next day. Honestly I do not like the flavor in any way shape or form. the price point was good and delivery was excellent. however, this has a higher amount of the magnesium then my original product. unfortunately I just can't get past the taste.
