I too have used epsom salts (magnesium sulfate), but didn't realize that magnesium chloride was more therapeutic? Here is an article off of the Ancient Minerals site explaining magnesium chloride vs other magnesium compounds, oral supplementation, etc.

I love epsom salts. These are good products! Taking a hot bath soaking in espom salts before bed really does the trick.

I can definitely attest to the effectiveness of these products. I haven’t tried the magnesium oil, but I did used the bath flakes for doing foot soaks while I was pregnant. Any woman who has gone through pregnancy will tell you that your feet can scream at times, and every time the foot soaks did the trick! I would plop my feet in while I watched TV for 30 minutes or so. Made me sleep sooooo much better too.

I tried this Ancient Minerals magnesium oil. I am sleeping better and I have less muscle tightness. I’m so glad so glad I found it. Thank you!

Thanks for the tip, Tiffany! I wasn’t aware that minerals could be supplemented topically, though it makes perfect sense! We find it tricky to get my son the magnesium and zinc he needs as he’s allergic to all nuts, seeds and dairy. This might just be the trick!

There is also a product called Natural Calm that I have used for years, it is ionic so it absorbs well orally. You know you are deficient in magnesium if you have issues with tight muscles, waking up overnight, and are generally uptight and jittery (although don’t confuse this with caffeine effect). I haven’t tried this product but it looks interesting!
