DID YOU KNOW? Magnesium can help boost energy, soothe muscle tension and help hydrate the skin? Using a topical magnesium cream can be such a soothing way to moisturize your skin to help manage acne and reduce the signs of aging.
But what else can it do?
Through my research, I found out that magnesium might help to soothe many symptoms.
But FIRST, What is Magnesium Chloride?
Probably the most common type of magnesium used in supplements, magnesium chloride is extracted from natural sources in rock or saltwater.
If you’re curious about the benefits of magnesium and why every cell in our body relies on this trace mineral to function properly, there is SO much info to find online. I have learned, Magnesium is at work in EVERY cell of our body. It performs over “300 essential functions” in the body! Whether it be to manage pain, help muscle recovery, get a better nights sleep or ward off a headache.
From my own experience, combining magnesium with lavender oil or peppermint oil can:
- help relieve muscle tension, tightness and stiffness
- aid working muscle tissue, allowing for quicker muscle recovery after strenuous exercise
- enable calcium absorption in bones
- Encourage restful sleep and improves sleep quality
- create a feeling of calm
- relieve aches and pains
- soothe muscle cramps and restless leg syndrome
- help you rest and sleep more deeply
