Magnesium is an essential mineral that is necessary to over 300 processes in your body. According to the CDC, most Americans do not consume enough dietary magnesium. Magnesium deficiency and magnesium inadequacy can result in a variety of problems, including fatigue, weakness, and muscle cramps. Chronic low magnesium intake may also contribute to the development of several illnesses. Magnesium can help your muscles relax, and it may also help ease muscle soreness. Luckily, magnesium can be absorbed orally and transdermally (through the skin). That’s why this rub for sore muscles contains magnesium. This rub is so great for aching feet at the end of a long day! Magnesium has a very distinct mineral taste so you may want to avoid applying this to your hands right before eating or preparing food! Also, it is very moisturizing - a little goes a long way. Apply on sore muscles at the end of your day, rub, and and relax, may make you sleepy. Store in a cool dry place
