Importance of Magnesium and Glucosamine

Responsible for over 325 chemical reactions inside the body, magnesium helps support calcium absorption, normal muscle function, and the maintenance of normal bones and teeth. Glucosamine is believed to encourage cartilage formation and helps maintain joint lubrication, promoting strength and movement.

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 use transdermal magnesium during pregnancy?

Transdermal magnesium is perfectly safe to use during pregnancy with no restrictions on dosage levels during this time. While some essential oils are advised to be avoid during pregnancy, those included in our products (with the exception of Basil in Mind Flakes) are classified as safe. However, if you have any concerns relating to your own health, please seek the advise of your midwife or GP before starting any dietary supplements.

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.

How to use

Spray between five and ten sprays around the body and massage well into the skin to stimulate absorption. After a shower or bath is a great time to apply as the skin is warm and the pores are open which aids absorption. Apply anywhere on the body avoiding delicate areas such as the eyes. Concentrate on joints, muscles, and areas of concern. Reapply whenever needed.

Adults: 5-10 sprays

Children 13 and up: we recommend halving the dosage as their additional daily supplementation need is lower than that of an adult.

Dosage: 10 sprays deliver 100mg of optimally absorbable elemental magnesium and 50mg of glucosamine.

If using during pregnancy and breastfeeding, we recommend consulting your Midwife or GP before beginning any supplementation. For external use only. Do not use on damaged or broken skin. Avoid contact with eyes. No known contraindications with prescribed medications.

Once opened, store at room temperature and out of direct sunlight. Keep out of children’s reach.

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 toweled off after massaging in.
