Homemade Magnesium Oil

Magnesium is an important mineral to the human body for heart health, a healthy immune system, the function of nerves and muscles, blood sugar regulation, blood pressure and metabolism. A deficiency in magnesium is easily remedied with the use of magnesium oil used transdermally (through the skin). Magnesium oil is very simple to make for personal use.

Instructions

• Buy magnesium chloride crystals. The ratio of magnesium chloride to water is 50/50. Mix half magnesium chloride to half boiled water. Allow the magnesium chloride to dissolve. Once the mixture of magnesium chloride and water has cooled, pour into the container of your choice for use.

Considerations

• The application of magnesium oil to the skin may cause a stinging sensation until the body is used to it. The solution can be further diluted with additional water to lessen the sting until the body adjusts.

  Applying magnesium oil directly to the skin will feel oily on the skin initially, but the oily feeling will quickly dissipate as it is absorbed.
