Did you know that magnesium is found in every organ in the human body? That’s not a coincidence either. Magnesium is a vital mineral that contributes to our health and well being, through over 300 biochemical reactions to be exact. It plays a huge role in breaking our food into energy, aids in the synthesis of DNA and RNA, helps calcium absorption, is largely found in our bones, and much more. While we have established the importance and need for magnesium, it is very common to be deficient in this mineral. According to the World Health Organization, the majority of adult men and women in the United States do not meet the AI, or adequate intake, levels of magnesium. Due to it’s wide array of responsibilities, a deficiency in magnesium can manifest in several different ailments. Some include hypertension, osteoporosis, depression, tinnitus, asthma, migraines, inflammation, digestive issues, and more.

While there are different ways to supplement your magnesium levels, some are more effective than others. However, magnesium is shown to be gradually less prominent in our food and water supply as it once was. Between filtration systems for our water and a decrease in the mineral content and health of our soil, supplementing magnesium becomes much more important than increasing your consumption of dairy products, fruits, vegetables, and nuts. On the other hand, taking an oral supplement isn’t always effective because it must pass through the digestive track and unfortunately, in some cases, the body does not have ample time for absorption.

Luckily, the use of magnesium oil as a topical treatment has been proved to show promise as a safe, effective delivery of this important mineral into the body. In fact, mineral baths are featured in ancient texts as well as a topical remedy for preventing infections and various other issues.

Some benefits of Magnesium Oil include:

1. Better Sleep:

As a natural muscle relaxer, magnesium truly aids in the body’s process to overall increase relaxation and decrease stress. Sleep is improved by calming the GABA receptors in our brain and nervous system, which ultimately helps us “slow down” and eventually experience restful sleep.

2. Migraine Relief:

The neurotransmitters responsible for the onset of migraine headaches is directly related to the level of magnesium in our bodies. And while suffering from one, our intra- cellular magnesium drops significantly. Therefore, regular supplementation has been proven to reduce the frequency of these attacks and sometimes the severity.

3. Muscle Ache Relief:

Due to magnesium’s relaxing properties, application of magnesium oil to sore joints and muscles can show improvement by lowering the level of pain associated. In addition, many studies have been conducted with athletes in particular. These all point to its importance in sport performance, as well as workout recovery. In other words, you do not need to be injured to reap the benefits that magnesium oil has to offer!

4. Stress Relief:

A lack of magnesium can cause stress, and stress can cause a deficiency in magnesium. Because of this vicious cycle, being sure to maintain sufficient levels of magnesium is crucial. Magnesium contributes to a healthy balance of hormones, especially the stress hormones, cortisol and adrenaline.

5. Skin Care:

Stress-related skin conditions, such as acne and rosacea, are dramatically improved when focusing on the root cause of these issues: stress. And as stated above, magnesium plays a hefty role in combating the body’s reaction to stress. Additionally, magnesium can break apart different fats and oils, and while doing so, fight against excessive skin oiliness.

Other Benefits include:

• Helps regulate diabetes and insulin resistance
• Decreases blood pressure in those suffering from hypertension
• Aids in the prevention of osteoporosis
• Combats morning sickness in pregnant women
• Protects against brain damage in premature babies
• And many, many more!
