A naturally occurring pure mineral compound (Magnesium Sulfate) in a crystallized form

Epsom Salt used in our Spasome Salts of the World Mineral Body Soaks and Mustard Baths is a naturally occurring pure mineral compound (Magnesium Sulfate) in a crystallized form. When dissolved in a bath it readily absorbs through your skin to replenish the level of Magnesium and Sulfates needed by your body. Research has shown that the very best way to increase the body’s level of these vital minerals is through skin absorption. The major components of Epsom Salt help to relieve stress by raising the level of Serotonin (a neurotransmitter in the brain that is involved in sleep, depression, memory, concentration, control of pain perception, and other neurological processes) and creates a feeling of relaxation and well-being. It may also be an excellent treatment of sore muscles, muscle cramps, swelling, ingrown nails, asthma (bronchial), fibromyalgia and migraine headaches by reducing inflammation, reducing the effects of adrenaline and effectively relieving pain. Epsom Salts have been reported to increase energy & stamina by promoting the production of Adenosine Triphosphate, which create energy in our cells. Epsom Salt also cleans, softens and exfoliates our skin. Magnesium is one of the body’s most needed and important elements to regulate the activity of more than 325 enzymes that perform more functions in more systems than any other mineral in the human body. In human cells the second most abundant element and fourth most important positively charged ion in the body is Magnesium. The National Academy of Sciences reports that most North Americans are deficient of this much-needed electrolyte. Studies indicate that in the last century, vital Magnesium levels in Americans have dropped dramatically more than 50%, which may account for the rising high rate of such conditions as heart disease, strokes, arthritis, chronic fatigue, stress-related illnesses and many other ailments. Magnesium helps our muscles, nerves and bodies to function properly. Increasing the level of Magnesium can help improve the health of your heart and circulatory system by lowering blood pressure, reducing blood clots, regulating heartbeat, improving oxygen use and protecting the elasticity of arteries. Magnesium helps to regulate nerve function and is critical in the proper use of calcium in our cells, bones and blood. It also reduces the occurrence or severity of diabetes by improving the body’s use of insulin. Sulfates are essential to our bodily functions by playing a vital role in the formation of brain tissue, joint proteins and mucin proteins in the digestive tract, and in stimulating the Pancreas to produce enzymes necessary for digestion. Sulfates improve the absorption of nutrients while helping to detoxify & flush pollutants, contaminants, heavy metals and harmful substances from our bodies. Sulfates also help prevent and relieve migraine headaches. Research has shown that Sulfates are easily absorbed through the skin, but difficult to obtain through food. The effects of Epsom Salts were discovered in Shakespeare’s day, early in the 17^th century in Epsom, England, the town these salts are named after. Epsom became the first, and very popular, spa resort town in England as word spread across Europe of the famed miraculous healing mineral waters found there. They are now known, sought after and prescribed the world over for their still extraordinary therapeutic properties, and that is why they are a necessity in our Spasome Salts of the World Mineral Body Soaks and Mustard Baths.
