Magnesium Oil


Mrs. Smith

Recommended Posts

I have some lingering muscle pain since being gluten free 4mos.,although it is much improved. I am taking magnesium in the morning and at night. I think its giving me loose stool and gas/bloating. I have read alot about Magnesium oils. They absorb transdermally and people with fibromyalgia have claimed it to be a "miracle" on some of the testimonies. Has anyone tried it? I take epsom salt baths, but I cant take them everyday. I have a busy life and the mag is upsetting my tummy. Is this really the best way to get more magnesium? It really does help with my muscle pain!

Perhaps you could try magnesium supplements that don't have 'oil'. Do you know what form of 'oil' it is?

I take a supplement but I am wondering about using the oil. You spray it on your skin and it absorbs through your skin. It completely bypasses your digestive tract. Just wondering if anyone has used it.

I have not tried it yet but I am interested in it. I have tried the creams that are available which I find helpful but not as good as the bath. We use the baths and oral supplements right now but I would not mind giving this a try. If you do it, I would be interested in your thoughts.

I misunderstood the original query and thought the oil was an oral preperation. I would still want to know what the vehicle, the oil, was composed of. If it was not a gluten source, or for me soy, I might give it a try. I have never heard of it though.

I haven't tried it but I am interested in it. It is reference on Dr. Carolyn Dean's website under her name. She has a link to buy it.

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat.  In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue.   A wedge pillow will really help with this - or raising the top bed legs with bricks.

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired.  I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years,  I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.
