Importance of magnesium

Magnesium helps to promote overall wellbeing and relaxation. It naturally supports the repair and relaxation of muscles. Magnesium also helps improve rest and recovery by contributing to a reduction in tiredness and fatigue, electrolyte balance and supports normal energy-yielding metabolism. It is also vital to support calcium absorption, maintenance of normal bones and teeth, normal psychological function, and healthy functioning of the nervous system.

What is the source of the magnesium chloride?

We use a unique combination of pure-source sub-terranean and marine magnesium chloride. All our magnesium chloride is from a 100% natural mineral sources, alternating between the Zechstein Sea area of Northern Europe, the Dead Sea area and most recently deposits from the Irish Sea.

I take medication, are there any contraindications?

There are no contraindications with any of our transdermal magnesium products. However, we always recommend speaking to your GP before starting any dietary supplements if you are on any medications or have any medical conditions.

Can I overdose on transdermal magnesium?

You do not need to worry about overdosing when using transdermal magnesium. Upper limits are only set when using the product orally, as large doses can have a laxative effect due to it being a natural relaxant.

Toxic symptoms from increased magnesium intake are not common as the body eliminates excess amounts, unless there are serious problems with kidney function. However, we always recommend speaking to your GP before starting any dietary supplements if you are on any medications or have any medical conditions.

The Magnesium Tingle

On initial application you may experience a slight tingling sensation. This may indicate low magnesium levels and is the result of the high speed absorption of magnesium through the pores. This will pass with regular use and as absorption commences immediately, skin can be towelled off after massaging in.
