I understand that magnesium is hydrophylic to the colon and thus pulls water out of the urinary tract and thus is not recommended in high doses for people with kidney disease. Can anyone explain, then why it is used for kidney stones? It would seem to lower the amount of water in the urinary tract and thus contribute to the stones. Thanks.

I would be very curious to know if all those things that clear kidney stones aren't unusually high in Magnesium. Enough magnesium to match the calcium should do the trick. Also Vit B6 reduces oxylytic acid, which otherwise combines with calcium to produce calcium oxalate, which is present in stones usually.
