Product Description
Transdermal Magnesium Therapy is the first and only book that focuses on one of the most important, exciting, and natural ways of magnesium replenishment; i.e., as absorbed through the skin. Extensive research has shown that this vital macronutrient enters the body through the skin, beneficial physiological processes occur, such as a natural increase in DHEA production, that happen no other way. Mark Sircus provides a critical overview of magnesium's grossly overlooked place in the nutrition matrix, as well as a comprehensive look at other available forms and intake protocols.

3 out of 5 stars Some good info, but too wordy   May 4, 2009
LGP (Coto de Caza, CA)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

There is plenty of good information here, but it repeats itself a lot. This book could be half the size. This book talks a lot about WHY you need magnesium, but not a lot on HOW to use transdermal magnesium. I was looking for dosages and absorption rates, but he mentions that this information is not available. However, he does mention how many mg are in a ounce of mag. oil, just not how much is absorbed.

One recommendation is to rub magnesium oil on the body or use for massage oil. Is he kidding? This stuff itches like crazy. Use on tops of feet, it doesn't itch as much.



5 out of 5 stars IMPORTANT BOOK FOR THE LAYMAN   January 14, 2009

I HAVE READ THREE BOOKS ON MAGNESIUM. I AM CONVINCED THAT MAGNESIUM OIL OR GEL SHOULD BE USED BY EVERYONE. THIS BOOK IN PARTICULAR IS INFORMATIVE AND EASY TO READ. I ALSO READ THE MIRACLE OF MAGNESIUM BY DR. CAROLYN DEAN,IT WAS THE FIRST ONE I READ AND I RECOMMEND IT AS WELL. IT IS A LITTLE HARDER TO FIND AND MORE EXPENSIVE.DOCTORS DON'T SEEM TO RECOGNIZE THAT MAGNESIUM IS AS IMPORTANT AS CALCIUM, YOU WILL LEARN THIS FACT FROM THIS BOOK.

I have read so many books that simply use a lot of hype to generate sales while only giving very little applicable information, and this one is no different. My first tip off was the fact that the author called himself a doctor but never graduated from a doctorate program. I think he calls it an "Honorary" doctorate. In any event the book is OK, especially by bringing attention to the fact that most people underestimate the need for more magnesium. The practical application of the book can be condensed to a couple of suggestions, however. That is, Magnesium Oil can be added to your bath water, foot soak or applied directly to your skin. So if interested purchase the magnesium oil and add it to your bath etc. Taking an epsom salt bath will also allow a transdermal movement of magnesiun at a fraction of the cost. The book is OK but the practical information can be easily found for free on the internet.


5 out of 5 stars very thorough   October 6, 2008

This book is incredible! M Sircus has put together a meticulous collection of data available about magnesium. This puzzle, which he has put together from scientific studies from all around the world, reveals the lack of magnesium in almost everyone including YOU! Our eating habits combined with not knowing what we really eat have led to a general lack of magnesium. Consequences are the alarming rises of numbers of people, especially kids, suffering from maladies as diabetes and social misbehaviors that are of course treated by pharmaceutics. The amounts of magnesium needed, to really fend off many of these creeping maladies is growing. Combined with magnesium being provided less and less in our foods the application of transdermal Magnesium is a huge blessing. Anyone interested in getting better or staying healthy should get informed about Magnesium and its purpose in our bodies. As an additional info about the availability of any supplements not being prescribed by the medical / pharmaceutical community, our freedom to get what we need without permission from "THEM" will end on Dec 31st 2009, when the Codex Alimentarius will end all of the non prescription availability of supplements that we need more and more. On top of it you will not be able to buy any food that has not been irradiated or processed in one way or the other. The packaging might have the same nutritional value as the "food" that is packaged inside. Wake up everybody!!!!


3 out of 5 stars Not Much Information on the Transdermal Method   August 14, 2008
Jo Ana Starr (USA)
20 out of 22 found this review helpful

I bought this book specifically to learn more about applying magnesium oil topically to raise magnesium levels in the body. Given the title, I thought that the whole book would be devoted to that topic, which was incorrect. This book offers good general information on magnesium and disease states/conditions that seem to result from low magnesium levels, but there is very little information specifically on the transdermal application of magnesium, in fact, less than 10% of the book.

If you want to read a somewhat technical book that fully covers magnesium, related disease states in great detail, and the different methods of using magnesium, which includes the transdermal approach, then you will probably find this book helpful.
