Guest guest Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 BOB, Thanks for the reference to the article about transdermal magnesium. AHAH! It detoxes heavy metals. I've been taking 200 to 400 mg a day internally. Will increase it.Does anyone already know about transdermal magnesium? I need to hit this hard; shotgun approach for now, and back off when my tumor recedes. Also, the article has a short bit about the correlation between dairy intake and prostate cancer. This gives me a bit more backing to my decision to end FOCC that I made this week, after nearly 2 years on it.PLEASE scroll down when you are posting, and delete all but a sentence about what you are REPLYing to. Most email programs automatically include the previous post. I too get this list in Digest form, and it's very irritating to read each long post over and over.

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Dr. Mark Seris (sp) has a book about transdermal magnesium. I believe you can find it at www.globallight.net tells all about it and why we need it. Samala, Renee ---- Does anyone already know about transdermal magnesium?

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Magnesium is a mineral that is used in GRAM quantities by the body everyday. NO significant systemic effect will be produced by absorbing micrograms or a few milligrams through the skin, and it will only be absorbed by the skin if you have thoroughly washed the skin of all oils on the skin first. Magnesium might be absorbed in sufficient quantity by such approach for a muscle or joint pain which is near the surface, as it has a relaxing effect on the nervous system and skeletal muscle. Magnesium salycilate or Oil of Wintergreen (Methyl Salycilate) would be better choices for lessening pain and spasm.Dr. GoebelGaiacita <gaiacita wrote: Dr. Mark Seris (sp) has a book about transdermal magnesium.

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 We have seen excellent success using the transdermal magnesium oils for stress relief, pain, relaxation, insomnia, etc. The concern with taking a lot of magnesium orally is the laxative effect that it has on many people making it impossible for them to take higher dosages. Dr. Norm Shealy has done some studies and has written a book about transdermal magnesium oils. According to him individuals sprayed a solution of magnesium chloride over the entire body once daily for a month and did a 20 minute foot soak in magnesium chloride once daily for a month. Dr. Shealy recruited 16 individuals with low intracellular magnesium levels to participate in the following experiment. Subjects had a baseline Intracellular Magnesium Test documenting their deficiency and another post-Intracellular Magnesium Test after 1 month of daily soaks and spraying were analyzed. The results: Twelve of sixteen patients, 75%, had significant improvements in intracellular magnesium levels after only four weeks of foot soaking and skin spraying. Intravenous as well as transdermal administration of magnesium bypass processing by the liver. Both transdermal and intravenous therapy create " tissue saturation " , the ability to get the nutrients where we want them, directly in the circulation, where they can reach body tissues at high doses, without loss. Intravenous administration is riskier though as an emergency medicine it most certainly has its place.
