"..without magnesium, the calcium that we take in cannot be utilized."

While calcium is most commonly talked about when addressing the issue of bone health, the importance of magnesium is overlooked. What people do not realize is that without magnesium, the calcium that we take in cannot be utilized. This same calcium that is not used often just ends up in all the wrong places: on bones rather than strengthening them; hardening arteries and being deposited between joints, amongst other problems. Calcium is easily and readily available from our food whilst magnesium is not as easily available. What is even more detrimental to our health is to be magnesium deficient and unaware of being so, as a significant number of illnesses have been linked to it.

Besides calcium absorption, magnesium is also needed to:

• Maintain normal muscle and nerve function
  • Release energy from muscle storage
  • Manufacture proteins
  • Regulate your body temperature

Oral magnesium supplements come in various forms, such as: magnesium taurate, magnesium glycinate, magnesium citrate, magnesium malate, magnesium oratate and magnesium chloride (magnesium oil, magnesium flakes, etc).

Elementz Magnesium products are all magnesium chloride based, with Elementz's source being the ancient Zechstein seabed. Magnesium chloride is the most bioavailable form of Magnesium, ie, best absorbed by your bodies. What sets our products apart is that they can all be used for transdermal therapies; you can absorb them through your skin. 

If you are already taking an oral Magnesium supplement (tablet/capsule), just know that are probably are absorbing only 20-50% of it at best.  And if you increase your dosage too much, you are most likely to end up with a case of diarrhea. This is what sets topical magnesium products apart from all other forms of magnesium supplementation is that they are absorbed transdermally (through your skin).
