The Benefits of Magnesium Cream!

If there’s one thing I can’t get enough of, it’s magnesium! Since discovering the incredible health benefits of Magnesium, I’ve never looked back. Magnesium can help boost energy as well as relax, it soothes muscle tension and helps hydrate the skin. There’s not much it can’t do! With so many products on the market, you might be wondering which is best for you. As you may know, I love using a topical magnesium cream because it’s such a soothing way to moisturise your skin, calm your senses and increase your Magnesium levels. What more could you ask for!

Why you should try a Magnesium cream

When Magnesium products are applied to the body, they look for skin oils (lipids) to help absorb into the skin.¹ For the Magnesium to be properly absorbed, there needs to be a certain proportion of lipids on the skin. For those with drier skin with less lipids, absorption may be problematic and your Magnesium products may remain on the surface of the skin, so the solution for those with dry skin is a rich Magnesium cream or lotion. Magnesium creams contain other natural ingredients such as rich natural butters that are similar to skin’s lipids. This allows the Magnesium to sink in and help contribute to the healing and regeneration of the skin.¹

My favourite natural Magnesium cream

The number one Magnesium cream I use is Elektra Magnesium Cream - Zest Citrus. This incredibly soothing cream provides a unique blend of 15% potent Magnesium Chloride with natural butters and oils like Shea Butter, Coconut Oil and Cocoa Butter, which are actually close to human lipids. This allows the Magnesium to absorb efficiently into the skin. Elektra Magnesium Cream is a nutrient dense formula that has so many benefits - it works as a detox, antioxidant, enzyme, emollient barrier and improves the visible appearance of skin.

The Elektra Magnesium Cream works so well because it is more diluted in comparison to Magnesium oils or sprays. You can apply it all over like you would a regular moisturiser! This increases the surface area of the body that receives all the wonderful benefits of Magnesium. This is a gentle way to provide your body with a high dosage, as an all over application of this Magnesium cream can deliver 250-300mg of elemental Magnesium into the skin.¹ How amazing is that!

If symptoms persist or you experience tingling, burning or numbness, stop taking this medication and consult your healthcare practitioner. Contains Potassium sorbate.
