Westlab - Restoring Magnesium Flakes - 1kg Resealable Pouch - 100% Natural, Pure & Unscented Mineral Salts - Magnesium Chloride Foot & Body Soak

Fantastic product, worked wonders in a fibromyalgia flare. Relaxed my muscle spasms and eased joint pain. Will 100% be subscribing on this product!

This is the best bath soak I have ever tried. I have a fractured spine and its really helping relieve my back.

I have recommended these to everyone I know. Such great value and leave skin and hair feeling silky smooth!

Great for a relaxing & soothing bath, smells heavenly with a hint of rose. Would bath in this every time.... if only I could afford to do.

I've used other Westlab products before, but I wanted a change from the usual Epsom Salts. These are...well, Magnesium Flakes (which look more salty than flakey), that I use mostly for foot soaks. They work their magic and I get sweet relief, and my feet feel relieved and rejuvenated. You can pretty much get the brand anywhere, so you really can't go wrong with this.

Wouldn’t want to live without this mineral soak - I currently suffer with acute cramping (as pregnant), this is a life saver. The oil is great for night time - this a couple of times a week to stay dosed.

Great remedy for relaxation and replenish lost salts from chronic back issues. Always makes me feel a lot better after a good soak.

Reasonably priced basic chemical, does what it says on the pack. Adding it to the bath, making a foot spa, dissolving to make an "oil" spray this is the starting block for getting more Mg into your body. Cramps be gone !

Worked great

The Amazon experience was predictable - reasonable price, rapid delivery. I've been using different magnesium products to treat my nasty case of AFib. Magnesium helps and this is an incredibly economical approach but I'm /inclined/ to believe some of the sprays and lotions are more effective. -difficult to tell with the soak until I've got more experience (greater size sample of testing). I've been using it in the tub and I have a bad disc which makes it tough to sit upright for long. (I soak for ~5 minutes.) EDIT: I no longer do the soak in the tub approach. Instead, I mix my own spray. The sprays to buy are expensive and this, with a little effort, is a VERY economical alternative. NOTE/DISCLAIMER/WARNING: I am not a physician/clinician nor anything of the sort. You should check with yours (one who has knowledge of and interested in holistic approaches to HELPING the body to heal) before “self-medicating”. Here’s what I do to mix my own spray: I saved a very wide mouth, clear plastic container (that came with bulk mixed nuts). Clean it out. Fill it FULL of the Zechstein flakes. Add water to about half full. Put the cap on and give it a swirl. Set it aside. Repeat the swirling after a few hours or the next day. Swirl again until all the flakes are dissolved. Add more flakes. Repeat. At first you can probably fill the jar with more flakes but eventually they won’t fully dissolve. This tells you the water can’t hold any more magnesium. I believe this is called the point of saturation. When the water is saturated, poor some into a wide mouth spray bottle or use a funnel in a narrow one. Fill the bottle only about half way. Stand in the shower (before you bathe) and spray it all over your body. Give it a few minutes to absorb before bathing. It feels greasy/oily but it isn’t and will literally rinse off. IF IT STINGS, you have some space in the pray bottle to dilute it a LITTLE until it doesn’t sting any more. I never had the stinging problem but if you do, you may be able to gradually work up to a stronger solution. DOES IT WORK FOR AFIB? I HAD miserable AFib and after a long time of doing this, plus Mg lotion after the shower and before bed and a LOT of supplements during the day and with some potassium supplements, as well, I’m able to /manage/ my AFib. Where I was on the path for ablation, now I am not and that is in spite of the medics still wanting to sell me one (or more). NOTE: we are all different. Your mileage may vary. Your response to this approach may work sooner or later than mine.

This is by far the best purchase I have made in my 35 years... Being magnesium deficient is an epidemic today, magnesium helps promote postassium, calcium and vitamin c which makes it an absolute necessity that no one mentions... About 40 percent of magnesium foods are absorbed through the small intestine and about 5% is absorbed through the large intestine which is only accurate if you’re eating right. While processed foods, sugars, coffee, etc delay this absorption making our bodies crawling for magnesium, anxiety on the rise, individuals inability to focus, consistent migraines the list goes on and on and people revert to conspiracy theories like HARRP or chemtrails making us sick, this is our own doing, we need to blame ourselves for once... I use these magnesium flakes in a pan and melt them down to a liquid... To do this you'll need to boil 1 3/8 cup of water because when it’s boiled you have to compensate for the evaporation at 100+ degrees, once its started to boil turn off the stove and let it sit for 2 minutes, pour 1 cup of magnesium flakes in and stir, then add to a spray bottle and spray your arms, legs and stomach 4 - 8 times a day because magnesium is needed in every part of the body, and your intestines trying to disperse it out is a lot of work, also your skin stops absorbing magnesium once it is satisfied.... keep in mind that almost everything you put on your skin is absorbed into your blood stream so try and refrain from any pen oils or harmful liquids. Quite honestly I feel like I’ve been in a comma before magnesium, as if I was loosing my memory, my body was weak, i had a poor circadian rhythm and I was feeling 🙁 a lot ... after the first week I feel as if I’ve been woken up... but beware cause if you don’t wipe it off or take a shower after 30-60 minutes you’ll feel an itchy feeling like you may be getting bites or hives and also make sure you’re not allergic. Hope you have an amazing day.

I love packaging which is why I bought these compared to other brands. Doesn’t leave much of a residue, not that much in the bag once you open it, it was about half way filled but I guess that is the weight. Happy that I tried this, the only reason I wouldn’t buy again is because of the price/weight ratio. Compared to Other brands on amazon I see you can get more bang for your buck with other brands.
