Pulverized sugar is often adulterated with starch, flour, magnesia, and sometimes silex and terra alba. |
It crops up in milk of magnesia, and as Epsom salts, but it is also an essential trace element, required for the normal function of virtually every organ. |
Among them are Chilean nitrate, rock phosphate, greensand, and sulfate of potash magnesia. |
Considerable quantities of lime and magnesia in the water will cause duller shades with logwood and fustic dyeings. |
Or sometimes medicine such as milk of magnesia can be mixed with chocolate or strawberry-flavored milk. |
I had a colonoscopy last fall and the doctor said that I could take milk of magnesia as often as needed. |
