083: Can Magnesium Give You A Rash?

Have you ever tried spraying your skin with magnesium oil spray only to end up super itchy? Or maybe your skin feels like it burns…

Magnesium is a pretty popular supplement suggestion. And so is this topical route!

But there can be a downside to it.

So the question is… is it normal to experience this type of reaction?

And does it mean that you’re sensitive to something in the spray?

In today’s episode, I wanted to explore why you might want to avoid magnesium oil spray on rashed skin.

In this episode:

• Quick overview about the importance of magnesium for health
• Why magnesium oil may not be the best option
• What does magnesium oil mean if it burns?
• Alternative options to magnesium oil that won’t flare your skin

Quotes:

Magnesium is critical to the proper functioning of your body and is necessary for over 300 biochemical reactions in your body. It can help you relax and fall asleep while certain forms can have the exact opposite action during the day by waking you up.

If magnesium oil triggers what feels like a rash or a flare, you may want to stop it. Nobody really knows why magnesium oil causes itching or burning. Some people say that this reaction means you're deficient in magnesium, but there is literally no science to support that claim.
