Title: Best Magnesium Supplements – Consumed or Applied?


1
Best Magnesium Supplements - Consumed or
Applied? Magnesium is one of the many
macro-minerals that are required in a large
amount to maintain the normal functioning of our
body. Some of the benefits of having sufficient
magnesium intake are maintaining normal nerve
function and steady heartbeats, sustaining the
immune system, keeping your bones strong,
regulating blood pressure and also increasing
energy metabolism rate and protein synthesis.
  • Benefits of Magnesium Supplements
  • In order to gain sufficient magnesium in our
    body, minerals intake through food alone is not
    enough. You may try to count the nutrients and
    minerals that the particular food or meal
    contain, but youd also have to be aware that
    this method is not fully reliable. In average,
    the whole digestive process for food to pass
    through your stomach to the small intestine and
    then into the large intestine for further
    nutrients reabsorption will take up to about 6 to
    8 hours. The process is slow and long and some
    nutrients may not be absorbed or be lost in the
    way.
  • In the form of supplements, magnesium is often
    combined with other minerals to help speedy
    nutrients absorption (like Salt Labs magnesium
    bath salts that contain magnesium chloride).
    Unlike nutrients in the food we eat, the time
    needed to digest and absorb nutrients from a
    tablet or from applied supplements would be
    faster and more effective. Speedy absorption of
    nutrients also meant that fewer nutrients will
    be lost during the absorption process. With
    magnesium supplements, we can be more affirmed
    that we are receiving sufficient, or if not more,
    minerals to keep our body working healthily.
  • Magnesium Supplements for DOMS

  • DOMS, also known as Delayed Onset Muscle
    Soreness, is the pain and stiffness felt in the
    muscles after strenuous exercise routines. This
    pain can be felt immediately or a day after the
    workout and it might still be there for the next
    several days. In situations like this, we aim for
    rapid and effective recovery so we can get back
    on track. Magnesium supplements will help
    muscles contract and relax and apart from aiding
    recovery, it will also help ease soreness for
    better and more comfortable rest or sleep. Salt
    Labs transdermal magnesium spray, for example,
    would also be able to ease muscle cramps.
  • Magnesium Supplements for Sleep
  • Apart from relaxing muscles, magnesium also has
    the benefits of calming nerves. This is why
    sufficient magnesium intake is also believed to
    have an effect on maintaining good emotional and
    mental health. With calmed and relaxed nerve, one
    would be able to achieve a better and deeper
    sleep. Taking a warm bath before sleep is said to
    be effective in soothing and relaxing the tired
    and tensed body that has been active throughout
    the day. To enhance this experience, Salt Labs
    Magnesium Bath Salts can be added into the bath.
    Soaking in the bath for about 20 minutes will
    not only help you relax and relieve stress, it
    will also improve blood circulation and
    detoxification process during sleep.
  • To be Consumed or Applied?
  • With all the benefits of magnesium supplements
    discussed above, now the question lies in
    whether the supplements are best if consumed or
    applied? Like any other supplements, magnesium
    supplements can come in the form of tablets or as
    products that can be applied to the skin.
    Following our discussion from above, consuming
    magnesium supplements tablets would still have
    to go through the digestive or nutrients
    absorption process, but if applied, the minerals
    will simply be absorbed through the skin then
    into the bloodstream. This form of mineral intake
    is known as the transdermal magnesium therapy.
    Undoubtedly, it allows you to easily absorb
    high-quality magnesium through the skin at a much
    more rapid rate than taking oral supplementation.
