My massage therapist feels I should be using magnesium oil as diabetics can be magnesium deficient and because of the way my muscles stiffen.
My gut reaction was “horse shit” as one’s skin is generally a pretty poor route for anything to enter the body, but in the interests of fairness, I went looking for the science.
From the conclusion: “However, we cannot yet recommend the application of transdermal magnesium.”.
Basically, there’s insufficient evidence currently for trans dermal supplementation though oral courses may be mandated IF one has been measured as deficient.
