Magnesium chloride gel to relieve muscle pain and spasms, soothe the skin and prevent magnesium deficiency.
Magnesium Chloride Gel
Magnesium Chloride Gel is a form of topical magnesium that is absorbed quickly through the skin, delivering magnesium directly to cells.
Provides measurable relief from muscle tension, spasms, cramps, aches and pains – and it softens skin!
Use Magnesium Chloride Gel at your massage therapy session, after a workout, a long day hunched over a desk – or anytime you experience symptoms of magnesium deficiency.
Formulated with plant-based Amigel for easy application, Magnesium Chloride Gel is equivalent in strength to our Magnesium Chloride Spray and is half the potency of our Magnesium Chloride Liquid.
magnesium absorbed through the skin is fast and effective
Directions for Use
Suggested Use: Apply directly to the skin and rub into muscles.
Shower or wipe away excess after 20 – 30 minutes, to allow time for the magnesium to fully absorb.
Cautions and Warnings: For external use only. Keep away from the eyes.
Ingredients: Each 1ml of gel contains 225mg of magnesium chloride, equivalent to 60mg of elemental magnesium.
Non-medicinal ingredients: AmigelTM, a 100% natural gelling and stabilizing polysaccharide agent (no petroleum).
Contains no fragrance.
Can you really absorb magnesium through the skin?
Consider the evidence from clinical studies:
- A transdermal magnesium oil with a 31% magnesium concentration applied to the skin and via a foot bath was found to increase cellular magnesium concentration by 59.7% in 89% of study participants, measured through hair analysis1
- In a two-week pilot study, blood serum and urinary magnesium concentration significantly increased in a subgroup of non-athletes following the low-dose application of 56 mg of transdermal magnesium cream per day2
- Intracellular magnesium concentration significantly increased following the application of a transdermal magnesium chlorate spray to the skin for 4 months, measured by epithelial cell and blood serum analysis3
