Natural Calm Canada's Magnesium Gel

Magnesium Gel is designed for holding the magnesium onto your skin while the body absorbs the magnesium for relief from aches and pains and other symptoms resulting from magnesium deficiency.  (225 mg per ml)  The carrying agent is Amigel.

Massage:  Rub into sore muscles to relieve the pain.  Compresses work well for tight, tired muscles.  Rub the Gel into the area.  Take a small towel and wet it in hot water (as hot as comfortable).  Place over sore area and allow the heat of the compress to drive the magnesium into the skin.  When the compress cools, repeat.  Do this process three times if preferred.  Works like a charm.  Also, apply to legs before bed to relieve restless legs.

Transdermal or topical refers to absorption through the skin. This has been found to be the easiest, cheapest, and most effective method of acquiring magnesium. The reason this occurs is because it cuts out the middle man: your digestive system. Absorption of magnesium in the intestines is very low, the excess being flushed out with other bodily wastes. This often causes diarrhea and can lead to kidney damage if continued for a long period of time.

When supplementing magnesium through your skin, this problem is no longer an issue. Wherever magnesium gel is applied to the skin, it is absorbed very quickly and is able to be spot-applied to any point of the body that has an obvious need for it.
