I received an email from a friend of mine in Wisconsin to whom I sent a copy of Mark Sircus’ book, Transdermal Magnesium Therapy (396ppg, Phaelos Books, $18.95), and a small sample of liquid magnesium chloride. He has always given great feedback, but none of this was solicited. He sells fine automobiles for a dealer in Brookfield, and has had coronary bypass surgery. He has taken conscious steps to achieve a full return to health. That’s why, with his permission, I’m sharing excerpts of his letter with you.
Adam, Thank You so very much for the awesome copy of your beautifully published book by Mark Sircus - Transdermal Magnesium Therapy. Cover looks great - VERY GOOD work!
Also, and as importantly, Thank You for the sample Oil of Magnesium Spray. I’m ready to place an order through you post-haste for either a 32 oz. bottle of Magnesium Oil, or a comparable amount of the Magnesium Gel. If I get more of the Magnesium Oil, I can just keep refilling the small sprayer, as needed. The gel also seems like another good way to go. We can discuss the Pros and Cons of both, when you have time to write back. Yet, I would like to receive more product ASAP…
Adam, as you know, I have always been just slightly skeptical about the Magnesium concept. Not that I didn’t believe that it had benefit, but I was really torn over “how much” it might really help me in tandem with everything else……………that I am and have been doing for quite a long time in striving to be and stay as healthy as possible - in mind, body, and spirit.
I began to understand why Transdermal Application of this mineral would be the most effective way to validate it for my own purposes - more and more - after corresponding with you and Mark, and lots of other additional research and reading that I did on the subject. Mark had, however, also encouraged me to continue taking the Slo Mag Magnesium Chloride product orally, as well, even though our bodies and bloodstream will only absorb so much of it orally.
Anyway, after just a few days, and now almost a week or more of applying the Magnesium to my chest (for my heart and circulatory system) and on my aching tired feet (after long work days standing and continually walking around) and on my face (for rejuvenation and sinus relief)……Well, I am absolutely amazed at how much better I feel, and how this “regimen” seems to work!!! I’m past the point of thinking that it may have been a “Placebo” effect at first.
I think that I could help you to sell this product, because I passionately believe in it, and am feeling the effects of it NOW……..and rather quickly, too! Please let Mark know! He was so patient with me, and I may have likely frustrated him to some degree with all of my questions by e-mail. Yet, I also think it was - hopefully - helpful for him to get a “taste of how a lot of readers might also respond” until they, too, fully understand and discover the real benefits, first-hand, that this therapy can offer.
I want to clarify one thing: there is NO “oil” in what is being commonly referred to as “magnesium oil.” In fact, there are no additives whatsoever. This solution is formed via a process of extraction. Starting with sea water, the water, or H2O, is removed via evaporation from sun exposure. As the water is removed, sodium binds with chloride, forming salt crystals (NaCl). Magnesium, the next most abundant component, also binds with chloride, but it takes a thick, liquid form, referred to as a brine. This brine has the consistency of a light oil, but is not an oil. It is pure nutrition. Besides magnesium, this solution includes copper, traces of sodium, iron, manganese, calcium, nickel, potassium, selenium, zinc, and others. If that weren’t important enough, these minerals are present in the best proportion to benefit our cell physiology.
It’s not enough to take supplements. It’s important to have all minerals, magnesium included, present in our systems in proper proportion and balance, so that they work with each other as intended. Far too often calcium is present in over abundance, which leads to muscle cramping and hardening, plaque production (not only in the teeth, but in the vascular system), and brittle bones.
So the term “oil” is used for descriptive purposes only. Perhaps a better term, for more reasons than one, might be solution.
