jessie70 wrote: Shiona, how do you take the mag oil, internally? Jess Hi Jessie, It appears that the oil is very similar to other forms of liquid minerals such as Concentrace, so no doubt can be taken in similar dosages internally (and apparently the only side effect from taking too much would be a laxative one, as with Vitamin C) but Dr Sircus's website highlights the advantages of applying transdermal applications of the oil such as adding a couple of ounces in a bath, or footbath, or using a body spray. The theory is that applying the oil to the skin is a much more effective and faster way of getting higher doses into the body without side effects, than by taking oral supplements (and also avoids the possible dangers of polluted pharmaceutical grade magnesium products). From his website: http://www.magnesiumforlife.com/dosage.shtml. There is no specific information about oral magnesium chloride in liquid form but it is reasonably safe to assume it would be more absorbable than magnesium taurate. Liquid minerals are thought to be much more absorbable than tablets. 3-5 sprays of magnesium chloride in a glass of pure water is an excellent way to take magnesium internally. It assists digestion, counteracts excess acidity in the stomach, and delivers magnesium swiftly into the bloodstream for distribution to all the cells of the body. Daniel Reid Tao of Detoxification The taste of the solution is not very good (it has a bitter-saltish flavor) so a little of fruit juice (grapefruit, orange, lemon) can be added to the solution. Individuals with very sensitive taste buds may start using it in tiny amounts mixed with strongly flavoured food and increase doses very gradually. Alternatively, drink it in one gulp dissolved in water while pinching your nose and quickly drink something pleasant afterwards. Daniel Reid says, “Using Magnesium Oil is the quickest and most convenient way to transmit magnesium chloride into the cells and tissues through the skin. 2-3 sprays under each armpit function as a highly effective deodorant, while at the same time transporting magnesium swiftly through the thin skin into the glands, lymph channels, and bloodstream, for distribution throughout the body. Spray it onto the back of the hand or the top of the feet any time of day or night for continuous magnesium absorption. Regardless of where you apply the spray on the body, once it penetrates the surface of the skin, the body transports it to whichever tissues need magnesium most.” Dr. Norm Shealy recommends using 6-8 oz in each bath you take when you use his suggested magnesium chloride product, which is a food grade magnesium chloride. With the Magnesium Oil that we recommend using, the recommended amount per bath is only 2 oz. The cost and the amount you use is dependent on the concentration of the magnesium oil used. The magnesium oil we recommend is 30–35 percent Magnesium Chloride as opposed to 25 percent for Dr. Shealy’s oil. It’s the difference between using MgCl2 evaporated from sea water and MgCl2-6H2O powder to make the oil. The magnesium oil also comes in a gel (lower concentration for massage) form as well as a small bottle with a spray pump for easy application to the skin. All massage therapists should be using the gel, and even families, for it is always a good idea to combine a massage with a magnesium treatment. The oil, which is not an oil actually, (it just has an oily consistency), is also usable in massage applications. If we really appreciated how important it is to make sure our magnesium levels are satisfactory we would be spraying our underarms with it everyday, spraying it on to different parts of our body and would never leave it out of our baths.

RE: CSMagnesium Chloride - Transdermal Therapy
Mary here, I take mag oil: for energy, under arms will get directly to the lymph glands, spray on top of hands, and feet. This will last about 6 hrs after brushing I spray on my gums( I have gum recession due to an accident)and swish in the mouth. Use it in the bath all over the body. On bottom of feet for everything else. Any time I have pain I spray it where the pain is, pain is gone within 20 minutes. My mom's arteries had calcified,according to doc, I sprayed it directly on the skin where the arteries are, within one month the calcification was gone,doc checked her, I also gave this internally in her morning coffee. My mom had congestive heart failure every time she went to the hospital they gave her mag ivs. I also keeps ph up there in the high 7's. Although I am in my middle 60's I clean houses as a sideline, my back can hurt after lugging the vacuum up and down 2 or three flights of stairs, I bring the spray with me and spray it on, pain is gone I have nothing wrong with me and I plan on keeping it that way.

I haven't tried it myself but it looks interesting ... This is the home page of Dr. Mark Sircus, the author of a recommended book Transdermal Magnesium Therapy http://www.magnesiumforlife.com/ There are over 200 published clinical studies[iii] documenting the need for magnesium and many examples of miraculous cures from the use of this common mineral. Even DAN (Defeat Autism Now) doctors underestimate autistic childrens needs recommending only 50 milligrams twice a day in oral form. Not much of that is going to get into the childrens blood and cells because oral administration of magnesium is not absorbed readily and is made less available because of all the problems in these kids GI systems. Professor Gilbert LeLord of France published six studies evaluating the use of vitamin B6 with magnesium, on autistic children and adults. Their studies typically used as much as 500 milligrams of magnesium with more than satisfactory results. According to Dr. Norman Shealy oral magnesium supplementation takes between 6 to 12 months to restore intracellular levels whereas a transdermally applied magnesium lotion with 25% magnesium chloride restores intracellular levels within 4 to 6 weeks. Some nutritional experts now believe that 750 milligrams of magnesium supplement per day is a more physiologic[iv] recommendation but to take that much orally might upset the digestive system, cause diarrhea, and end up not being properly absorbed. Good sources of magnesium include whole grains, nuts, peanut butter, cottonseed, peanut and soybean flours, green leafy vegetables and spices. It's better to get magnesium from foods rather than supplements because high doses have a laxative effect--the body's way of preventing toxic levels. But unfortunately we have to come to terms with the fact that the food values of magnesium have been dropping over the last fifty years making it extremely difficult to receive all we need from foods. The International Medical Veritas Association recommends a system of transdermal magnesium therapy that bypasses the problems evident with oral magnesium supplementation.

It could help, all he can do is try. No, it is not expensive 12 oz 7.00 they also sell by the gallon. I cut it by 1/2 seems to work but he could use full strength. It is the best deod. I have found.

Thanks for all your information, Shiona, I'm afraid these products may be too expensive for me right now. I am leery of things that I have to buy in bulk at large prices. So often it turns out that I can't use these things after all. This one, though sounds so good that I may be tempted to try it.
