There are several types of magnesium - the chloride type is the easiest to be absorbed and utilised across the skin. Magnesium is needed for 300+ body functions and most people are magnesium deficient.
By absorbing these minerals topically (through the skin) our body can utilise them as best needed and they are not lost through the digestive system.
