WHY YOU SHOULD ADD MAGNESIUM TO YOUR BATH

There is a lot of focus on Sodium… having too much or not enough. But magnesium is the second most abundant mineral found in the ocean and other water sources. And we aren’t getting enough of it.

When you drink mineral water it contains magnesium, along with other important minerals like calcium potassium, iron, and zinc. All of these micronutrients are extremely important for your body.

Why Is Magnesium Important

Our bodies contain about 25g of magnesium, 60% of that is in our bones and 40% is in our muscles and other tissues.

What is really important about magnesium, is it is a necessary mineral for us to survive. Magnesium is responsible for things like DNA replication to muscles contraction.

Magnesium Deficiency

Now knowing how important it is… these are some signs you might be low in magnesium.

• loss of appetite
• fatigue
• muscle weakness
• nausea and vomiting
• muscle cramps
• low calcium or potassium levels
• mood changes
• an irregular heartbeat

So, here’s the thing, most people are deficient in magnesium, mainly due to the lack of it in our diets and water source. Unfortunately, it’s not an easy mineral to absorb orally either. Especially if you have gut issues, as most of us do!

Magnesium Baths

So the best way for your body to absorb magnesium is through the largest organ in your body… your skin. There are so many benefits to adding magnesium into your bath water, which can help with:

• Muscle aches and joint pain
• Increased energy
• Increasing insulin sensitivity
• Improving circulation
• Helping with nutrient absorption
• Headache relief
• Wound healing, acne, eczema, or other skin problems
• Improving skin hydration
• Better Sleep

Don’t those benefits make you want to jump into a bath filled with magnesium!?

Just Add Water…

I guess I should say… just add water and Magnesium Salt Flakes into your bath. You can take these baths once a week or every day if you like. And you will want to take them up to 20 minutes or longer to really get the absorption benefits. Don’t worry, you can’t get magnesium toxicity either.

Soon enough your mind will be calm and relaxed and your body will be energized. Trust me… you will know the effects of taking a magnesium bath quickly and will want to take them more often!
