I've been using "magnesium oil" applied directly to my skin instead of using oral magnesium supplements. The transdermal method prevents the laxative effect since it bypasses the intestine and, according to Dr. Normal Shealy, this method also increases DHEA levels in the body. It works well to ease muscle cramps and tension headaches, I just rub a little of the oil on the painful area.
Magnesium oil is a concentrated solution of magnesium chloride derived from seawater which has an oily feel, hence its name. Most people are deficient in magnesium and Dr. Shealy states that transdermal magnesium therapy can raise the intracellular Mg levels in 4-6 weeks compared to 6-12 months of oral supplementation.
From reading some of the sea salt posts, it seems that most of us already use a good sea salt, but I thought some people might be interested in this link.
