Researching improvement of Magnesium Balance

Magnesium occurs in various compounds in nature. This mineral plays a major role in our energy balance and in more than 325 enzymatic processes. In a similar way as the human body uses water, it naturally consumes magnesium every day while it does not have a system for buffering this material.

The therapeutic effect of magnesium chloride in skin disorders such as psoriasis has been known for many years. There is a growing realisation that today’s food contains too little magnesium and that this must be complemented, as many medical complaints appear to be connected with magnesium deficiency.

2. By addition to foodstuffs or drinking water. The disadvantage of this is that many people may develop symptoms such as diarrhoeia.
3. Transdermal? This means absorption via the skin *). In transdermal administration, the purity of the product is key in the prevention of the undesirable absorption of impure by-products. Worldwide there is a lot of evidence that practicing topical application also achieves systemic effects.
