Magnesium is essential for more than 300 reactions in your body, including nerve and cardiac function, muscle contraction and relaxation, and protein formation. As much as 75% of the population is deficient in magnesium because of the way that lifestyles, diet, and processed food have changed in the modern world. Magnesium is best absorbed through the skin, so adding a daily routine of magnesium spray or body butter is one of the best gifts you can give to your body. Magnesium deficiency can cause: anxiety, trouble sleeping, irritability, low blood pressure, memory loss, and muscle spasm/weakness among many other things.

Oats are “full of vitamins, minerals and lipids that add moisture to benefit the condition of one’s skin.” Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Susan Stuart told us, “Oatmeal contains both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and as such is ideal for sensitive skin and to treat a variety of skin disorders (i.e sunburns, eczema and poison ivy).” Read More: Oatmeal Beauty Benefits

Epsom Salt
Epsom Salt can help regulate electrolytes in your body, ensuring proper functioning of the muscles, nerves, and enzymes. Magnesium is also known to be critical in the proper use of calcium, which serves as a main conductor of the electric impulses in your body. An Epsom salt bath is known to ease muscle pain and relieve inflammation, making it beneficial in the treatment of sore muscles, bronchial asthma, and migraine headaches. The magnesium helps to produce serotonin, a mood-elevating chemical within the brain that creates a feeling of calm and relaxation. Experts believe that bathing with Epsom salt at least three times a week helps you to look better, feel better and gain more energy. Magnesium ions also help you relax and reduce irritability by lowering the effects of adrenaline. They create a relaxed feeling, improve sleep and concentration, and help muscles and nerves to function properly.
