We need minerals topically, not just orally!

I use this product to saturate my body with minerals (especially magnesium) after severe tendonitis caused by antibiotics (ciprofloxacin and levakhin). I have been using Ancient Minerals Magnesium Chloride Bath Flakes but it occurred to me that I could get a wide range of minerals instead. I had very poor oral absorption of minerals compared to my husband, apparently due to leaky gut/microbiome issues, which also appears to be the result of fluoroquinolone antibiotics. I am very thankful for an affordable broad spectrum mineral bath salts. I put about 4-6 cups in the bath and stay in it for 30-60 minutes. The water seems very soft and has a salty taste. FYI, I also add 1000-2000 mg of ascorbic acid or sodium ascorbate to my bath water to neutralize the chlorine. Overall, taking magnesium and other minerals topically and orally has completely relieved me of decades of very stubborn constipation and greatly improved the insomnia that started right after taking ciprofloxacin a few years ago. There seem to be some benefits to taking minerals topically rather than just orally - most of us have some degree of intestinal leakage and therefore are not well absorbed orally, and topical magnesium also stimulates the production of DHEA, one of our upstream hormones. which produces many other hormones (see Transdermal Magnesium Therapy). And our food supplies are depleted of minerals because our soils are depleted. Minerals are absolutely necessary for good health. Whatever your medical condition, it will help you saturate yourself with minerals, which is easier to accomplish with a combination of oral and topical use. As for oral minerals, I am currently taking Concentrace tablets.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
