Review on 🛀 Organic Magnesium Bath Flakes - Enhanced Bathing Alternative to Epsom Salt - Immerse in Pure Salts - Optimal Absorption Efficiency for Deep Relaxation, Holistic Wellness & Soothing Muscle Relief (4 lb) by Kenneth Stanford

I have terrible muscle cramps affecting my upper body and legs; I wake up screaming that the pan is so sudden and so hard). My primary diagnosis is Fibromyalgia and muscle cramps is just one of the many symptoms I and many of us experience.) I purchased Magnesium Flakes after using the pre-packaged spray for several cycles with GREAT muscle cramp reduction benefits. (8 sprays twice a day on the legs, but after a few months I got cramps again and had to increase the number of sprays). I was very relieved but worried about all those empty aerosol cans. So I went on a quest and found these flakes that I could use to make my own spray. I make a 2:1 dilution of 2 cups of granola and pour 1 cup of nearly boiling water. I make this in a 4-cup glass measuring cup that I reserved just for this. I stir to dissolve it, but not too gently. I have found that the crystals dissolve in about 2 minutes to half an hour. Then I pour my solution into the already empty spray bottles. I was amazed to realize that a solution with this ratio was better at restraining muscle spasms than the strength in the finished bottle. Well, it may or may not be the same strength, but for me I notice a significant difference. And I love that I don't throw all those empty aerosol cans in the trash. I've been doing this since about November, so about 6 weeks. And my first bottle is about 3/4 gone. That was 4 8oz bottles with a little left over which I used the first night. So overall much cheaper. I will continue to use granola as long as it is available. I care more about wasting bottles than saving money. Thank you for making this product available in flake form. Other than that, I had no benefit from supplementing with magnesium while I was sleeping. As well as ready-made or handmade. The solution leaves marks on my skin and makes it difficult for my clothes to slip. After about a month, my feet took on a gray tint. No amount of soap would wash it off and there was always a residue. MY DECISION? I found a skin peeling mitt—round and stretchy—in the bathroom at my local Walmart. I use regular soap that I lather onto a mitt and then wipe my feet with. Wiping off the residue is a bit of a hassle and never seems to be completely removed, but I no longer have a gray cast on my skin. I do this about once a week when I shower (I rarely have enough energy to shower more than once a week - maybe that would leave nothing at all). Happy New Year to all.
