Topical Magnesium
Magnesium is probably the most important nutrient that you’re deficient or nearly deficient in. If you’re an American, there is a three-in-four chance that you’re not getting your recommended daily allowance. This is why magnesium deficiency has been dubbed the “invisible deficiency.” Considering that magnesium is involved in hundreds and hundreds of reactions in the body—including nerve and muscle function, keeping your heartbeat steady, a strong immune system, aiding in the production of energy, helping to regulate blood glucose levels and many, many more—it is unclear why most people aren’t looking for ways to increase their magnesium intake.

Topical Magnesium
There are several benefits to using a topical magnesium supplement like Mag-nificence Spray, Lotion and Bath Crystals. First, transdermal magnesium bypasses the stomach problems many people suffer after taking oral magnesium. Secondly, you can specifically target troubled areas, and finally, many experts believe that the body absorbs topical magnesium more efficiently because it bypasses the digestive system and goes right into the bloodstream.
