Mag oil is great for the human body and it has many health benefits which have been mentioned often on EC by many posters over the years. Mag oil also has some downsides that are not mentioned often, but two important issues are the fact that higher percentage mag oil can have a burning or stinging effect for some people, especially when applied to the neck and shoulder area. This is unfortunate because mag oil is very good for helping to relax the muscles in those areas and is often used for that purpose. One way to minimize this bad effect is to add MSM to the mix when you make your mag oil solution from flakes. I like to use 5 grams per ounce of water for this purpose.

Another downside to mag oil is the fact that even though it is not an oil, it does "feel oily" and can stay feeling oily for hours after you apply it, especially as you increase the percentage of flakes in your mag oil solution. One way to help reduce this sticky oily feeling is by using vodka in place of distilled water to make your mag oil with. The vodka reduces the oily feeling and also lessens the time that you feel oily or sticky by a very significant amount.

So these are two ways to make it easier to use magnesium oil which could also help with regular application compliance which should be better for your overall health!

I have read that mag sulphate is rapidly excreted by the kidneys whereas mag chloride hangs around much longer. Also, I learned that the chloride reserves of the body can be bolstered by preferentially using magnesium chloride.

When I apply MgCl oil to my body I follow with applying VCO also, and it feels very good, no itching or dryness, it really helps me relax, and rest good at night.

Yes, I have found that since drinking a liter of water with a 3mg capsule of boron chelate in it, throughout the day, I now have much less itching and stinging upon the application of magnesium oil. I have read that Boron aids in the proper metabolism of vitamins and minerals involved with bone development, such as calcium, copper, magnesium. It appears that because my body is now better able to assimilate the magnesium, the side effects no longer affect me.
