Re: ? Magnesium: too little info -

[Guest guest]

HI Rita- My son will have a lot pool time this summer and Im wondering what the name of the spray is that your Dr recommends after chlorine exposure. Should I also give an epsom bath after he swims. Ive been wondering what extra support would be important. We want him to learn to swim but I hate the chlorine factor. thanks!To:

I am in full agreement w/Heidi....this should be very individual & our childrens growth needs should be foremost when developing a supplement plan for them. Magnesuim has been a standard in our protocols for years & our very good docs have used multiple ways of getting it in him. He is currently on Magnesium Glycinate, has long term use of Epsom Salt baths (see enzymestuff.com which has good info on this including sprays to use after summertime park play chlorine exposure...Very Important!). One of our docs is using a topical Spray which is one of her current fav's.

,

There are some really high quality ( & frankly expensive) sprays that we can get

from our docs. On my low budget I just use the ones from Enzymestuff.com

From home go to " related topics " across the top....here's the link:

http://enzymestuff.com/epsomsalts.htm

My fav last summer was the lotion w/coconut oil which keeps the skin moisturized

as well as the kinda white powdery gritty look/feel down.

This is Important w/summertime water play!

Hope this helps,

Rita

We've used Epsom salts in water -as much as will stay in solution. A camper one

year whose mother said she'd never been able to swim because of the chlorine did

fine. She showered ASAP after swimming[minutes] and was sprayed each time with

no adverse consequences. We've also tried the magnesium chloride here

http://www.swansonvitamins.com/Search?keyword=magnesium+chloride+spray & doSearch=\

true & ntt=magnesium%2Bchloride & n=0 & ntk=Level1

It leaves a slight sting but seems to saturate like the ES. This one also comes

in flakes from the same co. so you could make a less strong spray.
