Magnesium supplements without soy beans?

[Cocosilk]

I have a question about Magnesium supplements. I noticed that the couple of different brands I've been taking (in Australia) both contain soy beans. I'm just wondering if anyone knows if that is because using soy beans is the only way to make Magnesium supplements, or are there other alternatives? I thought I'd ask the carnivores because I can't imagine you would be eating soy beans otherwise. Also, any experience of whether Magnesium Citrate is the best one to ward off the keto flu symptoms, or a combination of different magnesium types?

I also wonder about Vitamin D and whether these oil capsules can oxidise in the same way that fish oil capsules apparently do. One of my Magnesium tablets contains Vitamin D but it's not an oil capsule. Would that absorb as well? Sorry if I'm asking these questions into the wind. I'm googling and haven't found any answers yet and thought someone else may have read about it. Cheers

This is the supplement I currently use - but only cites vegetable sourced ingredients so I don't know if soy (potentially an inflammatory food source) is involved. Doesn't stop me from adding to my otherwise mostly carnivore biased diet. I was originally advised to go on both Mg and D3/K2 supplements as a result of my endo's ordered blood tests.

Ah I use Life Extension Mg as well, the extended release version

No soya, as far as I can see. It explicitly says ‘no soya lecithin’ so I wonder if that is what the OP is coming across - it’s an additive - emulsifier or antioxidant, not anything to do with the source of the Mg itself.
