The Active Ingredient Is: Magnesium (Magnesium Chloride)

Magnesium is a essential mineral that plays a core role in normal bodily functions and is supplied here as magnesium chloride flakes for topical use. The product uses Zechstein magnesium chloride as a natural source, intended for transdermal application through baths or footbaths.

This form is sourced from a ancient mineral deposit and is aimed at external use to support magnesium repletion through skin absorption, with the formulation built to deliver elemental magnesium via the skin.

What Does Magnesium Do?

EFSA recognises that magnesium participates in normal muscle function and electrolyte balance, contributing to overall physiological stability.

The preparation is described as supporting muscle relaxation and stress relief through transdermal delivery, with absorption validation reported by Cardiff University as part of the product assessment. This aligns with the intended topical use to maintain magnesium levels in the body.

This supplement is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
