Magnesium Transdermal

How do you measure  magnesium in the body accurately, being that most of it is in our bones and only about 1% is in our blood, do we wait until we show signs of deficiency before supplementing? The answer is clearly no if we want to live a long life in good health.

Everyday it is important to receive the full requirements our bodies have for magnesium and those who understand the realities of modern life, diets and agricultural practices know how difficult it is to receive our needed magnesium through food alone. We can’t eat enough, besides transdermal is the best way to apply magnesium Chloride is via the skin instead of eating it.

The Ancient Minerals, Ocean Minerals- magnesium oils, bath salts are recommended by Dr. Mark Sircus, Ac., OMD, Director of the IMVA are available from the following sources in the USA, Canada and Australia.

These are important questions when we start supplementing anything. Magnesium chloride dosing questions:

1. how effectively is Magnesium absorbed transdermally — about 95%
2. in bath water foot soaks,
3. direct topical application or
4. compared to oral consumption?  — this about 5% good
5. can we take in too much magnesium when all sources are considered.

Before one begins transdermal magnesium chloride it is highly advised that you read the chapter on warnings and contraindications if you are suffering from any chronic illness like arthritis, severe disease like cancer or lymph flow problems, or are taking any cancer pharmaceutical medications. Also if one is suffering from any kind of disease it is always recommended to have your treatments supervised by a primary health care practitioner. That could be a nurse, chiropractor, naturopathic doctor, acupuncturist, or allopathic medical doctor. Unfortunately few know anything about transdermal magnesium mineral therapy because it is so new.

Magnesium chloride as explained in Dr. Mark Sircus’ book is without doubt a versatile mineral medicine, though as with all forms of magnesium supplementation, it is not easy to calculate the exact dosage. Absorption rates vary considerably from one person to another and from one form of use to another, even with magnesium chloride, which probably delivers more useable magnesium to the cells than any other form. It is wise, especially if one is seriously ill, to start out with low dosages and build slowly up to higher doses over a period of a week or two.

Magnesium can be introduced into the body in many ways.  One of the most powerful is intraveneously, but this approach is only through treatment by health care professionals, and is painful due to the quantity entering the body so concentrated.  Another approach, far more gentle yet effective, is to introduce magnesium transdermally to replenish the body’s supply of this vital nutrient.

According to Dr. Ronald Hoffman, “patients with low magnesium who take just oral supplements do not normalize”.   Transdermal magnesium therapy does speed up the process, bringing up the body’s magnesium level nearly as much as intravenous methods.

How do we provide this magnesium through transdermal use?   One of the most recommended methods is with magnesium oil.  Not truly an oil, more of a salt, magnesium oil is inexpensive and safe to use.  Another method is a magnesium salt bath.  Are we talking about an excessive amount of salt?  No, it’s not table salt, that’s sodium.  We’re talking about magnesium salts.  Transdermal magnesium is found to be moisturizing and hydrating as well, and penetrates the skin quickly and easily.

The quality of our foods is changing. While organic farming is receiving greater attention these days, our soil quality has been compromised over many years through non-organic methods. The soils have been depleted of their mineral and organic content. Poor soil can only translate into one thing: poor quality foods.

An newborn needs 30 mg per day, increasing to 75mg in months 7-12. Toddlers, up to age 3, should have 80 mg per day of magnesium in their diet. This should be increased to 130mg from age 4-8, and 240 from age 9-13. When we reach age 14 the recommended dietary intake changes for men vs. women, and increases for women who are pregnant or lactating.

Males age 14 and older should consume 400-410 mg per day. The recommended intake for women range from 240 to 400, depending on age, or if pregnant or lactating.

The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey has determined that “a substantial number of adults in the U.S. fail to consume recommended amounts of Magnesium.”

This magnesium deficiency increases in older adults. Question: can many of our physical and mental health issues, as well as conditions we have come to know as “aging” be symptoms or problems created by as shortage of magnesium?

Magnesium oil, as it is called, is really a solution of magnesium chloride (MgCl2) that is highly concentrated. It has a slick, slightly oil-like feel, but is not at all greasy!

You can apply magnesium oil directly to the skin, and rub it in. Your skin will feel that same sensation as you would feel after a swim in the ocean.

According to the National Institute of Health: “Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body and is essential to good health. Approximately 50% of total body magnesium is found in bone. The other half is found predominantly inside cells of body tissues and organs. Only 1% of magnesium is found in blood, but the body works very hard to keep blood levels of magnesium constant.”

“Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong. Magnesium also helps regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure, and is known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis. There is an increased interest in the role of magnesium in preventing and managing disorders such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Dietary magnesium is absorbed in the small intestines. Magnesium is excreted through the kidneys.”

Your body relies on magnesium, or MgCl2, for good health and proper function. For more information on magnesium, visit the National Institute of Health website.

Magnesium (Mg) deficiency commonly occurs in critical illness and correlates with a higher mortality and worse clinical outcome in intensive care units.

Studies are now underway that have emergency crew personnel authorized to administer IV magnesium immediately. Preliminary trial found “promising” effects of mg SO4 (mg sulfate) on stroke victims if given early enough, before getting to Emergency Rooms.

Magnesium is the second most abundant intracellular cation and the fourth most abundant cation in the body. It is essential for transmembrane and intracellular modulator of cellular electrical activity. Deficiency of magnesium in the body can be critically damaging for the life of our cells.

While some of these signs may be related to stress or other conditions, they are typical signs of a magnesium deficiency.  Any changes to diet, supplement use, or over-the-counter medication use should be discussed with your health care provider.

·         Fatigue

·         Weakness

·         Loss of appetite

·         Nausea

·         Numbness and tingling

·         Muscle cramps

·         Seizures

·         Personality changes

·         Abnormal heart rhythm

“Magnesium deficiency inhibits the body’s ability to absorb magnesium. This is an idiosyncracy of magnesium. Once the intracellular level gets low enough to cause symptoms, in some people, the intestinal lining loses its ability to absorb magnesium efficiently. The purpose of intravenous magnesium treatment is to get the body over that hump so that it can be absorbed via the diet again.”

Quote: Dr. Walt Stoll

Our skin is the largest organ of the body. Transdermally applied magnesium, in the form of gel, oil, or bath, can deliver a vast quantity of MgCl2 through the skin, for quick delivery throughout the body.

They say that if you take a magnesium pill, only 5% is absorbed — while on the other hand, if you spray magnesium oil on, rub gel on your joints, or soak your feet in it — you get 95% absorption.
