Added ND Skullcap powder in a glass with magnesium glycinate, anyone know why it turned this color??

That's super cool! We just did some testing of our own, and sure enough... it turns red!
* Baikal + tap water = yellow
* Baikal + sodium bicarb + water = dehydrated urine yellow, slightly darker than just water
* Baikal + citric acid + water = very faint yellow, almost transparent
* Baikal + magnesium glycinate + water = instant color change to terracotta red, exactly like yours
Perhaps the flavones in the Baikal are complexing with the magnesium, causing the color change. Very interesting reaction indeed!
