Epsom Salt 2kg FCC grade Epsom Salt also known as Magnesium Sulphate, Is a well known salt used for muscle relaxation, sports injuries and recovery in the bath. Epsom salt was originally discovered in Epsom, Surrey, and is now produced from natural minerals in Germany and many other countries globally and has many uses including helping plants grow! The benefits of Epsom salt are not just tales. Numerous studies have demonstrated the profound and wide-ranging benefits of magnesium and sulphate, the two major components of Epsom salt. People to have sung the praises of Epsom salt include Doctors, celebrities, personal trainers and gardening experts.

This brings us to Epsom salt. Known scientifically as hydrated magnesium sulphate, Epsom salt is rich in both magnesium and sulphate. While both magnesium and sulphate can be poorly absorbed through the stomach, studies show increased magnesium levels from soaking in a bath enriched with Epsom salt! Magnesium and sulfate are both easily absorbed through the skin. Sulfates play an important role in the formation of brain tissue, joint proteins and the proteins that line the walls of the digestive tract.  They stimulate the pancreas to generate digestive enzymes and are thought to help detoxify the body of medicines and environmental contaminants

All this from a bath? Hurray! While there are many different brands of Epsom salt, they are all the same product chemically, and can be found at most drug stores. Add two cups of Epsom salt and soak for at least 12 minutes. Do this three times weekly.
