Nutrition Comes From Natural Sources

By Lydia Peru

Great things come from our deep blue seas. Magnesium, for example, is derived from ocean supplies of minerals. Little did we know that dipping our toes in the water was not just refreshing, it was nourishing as well.

Most of us dont live near the beach though, and cannot take the time out of our busy schedule for that natural foot bath, but we can pull out a bottle of Transderma magnesium oil after the shower and reap the benefits of the elements contained in the ocean.

Nutrition is a hot topic, but one that is full of confusion. When we think about what we eat we have to consider that its a two way street. Food nourishes, but it also takes vitamins and minerals to process those foods. That fast food diet, or that home cooked fried chicken may take more than it gives us. Visit any federally funded health site, and you will likely find data that shows that we are deficient in magnesium.

We really have two ways we keep magnesium in the body. About half our magnesium is stored in our bones, along with calcium and other minerals. Great, we want to maintain that storage for future use. Then we have our blood. Were going to find only about 1 percent of our magnesium in the bloodstream.

If we are deficient, and challenged in our diets to get the nutrients we need, what can we do? Magnesium can actually be absorbed through your skin, or transdermally. You can take a transdermal magnesium bath, using a form of magnesium crystals that is processed for easy absorption, or use a gel or oil.

Magnesium deficiency has been associated with depression, mental fatigue, chronic tiredness, and even pain relief or release. Some say that they feel calmer and sleep better after a magnesium bath or by using the magnesium oil after their bath.

There are over 300 biochemical actions in our body that need magnesium. That sounds pretty darn important to me. According to this same medical authority there is concern about continued sub-levels of magnesium in a large part of our population. Perhaps we should go back to basics, such as basic nutrition through the elements of life. - 17274
