Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) is not harmful to our body when ingested AND a product, or way, in which it is used. It is commonly used to get relief from acidity, that is caused when our stomach releases excessive acid. It neutrelises the acid and gives us relief. It is also called Milk of Magnesia commonly.
