BetterYou Magnesium Sleep Body Spray - 100ml BetterYou Magnesium Sleep Body Spray is a unique combination of magnesium and essential oils to help promote relaxation, a sense of wellbeing and aid peaceful sleep. Formulated for topical use, essential magnesium is absorbed directly into the skin tissue, entering the cells immediately. It efficiently replaces magnesium lost through modern diet and pressured lifestyles. As an essential dietary mineral, magnesium plays many important roles, including: Magnesium helps support normal energy production in cells. Supports healthy nerve and muscle function. Helps maintain a normal, regular heartbeat. Supports healthy bone density. In addition to this pure source of magnesium, BetterYou have added a formulation of essential oils to aid relaxation. Grape seed has been used for its ease of absorption and skin-smoothing qualities. Bergamot, chamomile and clary sage are notable for their refreshing, muscle relaxing and calming qualities. Magnesium oil delivers this essential mineral in its most absorbable form. A unique mineral source BetterYou Magnesium Oil uses a source of magnesium chloride mined only in the North of Holland, over a mile below the ground and over 250 million years old. Unlike salt sources from open seas, this source is completely uncontaminated by toxins from modern industrialisation and man-made pollutants. BetterYou uses only the purest source of magnesium chloride, with only a trace presence of other minerals. The process of mining this precious mineral utilises unobtrusive drilling pipes which dissolve the seam in spring water and then pump it to the surface. A chemical 'fingerprint' is then taken to ensure a consistency of purity and a certificate of pharmaceutical quality is granted for every approved batch. Only through this process can BetterYou provide its Magnesium Oil spray. The pure salt form is quickly absorbed. The unique blend of oils helps promote relaxation. Instant spray formulation. Helps support normal, restful sleep patterns. Up to 800 individual sprays. 10 sprays deliver up to 155mg (50% RDA) of optimally absorbable elemental magnesium. Magnesium Deficiency on the Rise: In 1997 over 70% of Americans were thought to be deficient in magnesium and in 2003 the average UK diet contained only 60% of the RDA of magnesium. There are a number of reasons for this: Food processing depletes magnesium , and the vast majority of us eat mostly processed foods. When wheat is refined into white flour, 80% of the magnesium in the grain is lost; 98% is lost when molasses is refined into sugar. Similarly, magnesium is leached out of vegetables that are boiled, transported over long distances or rest on store shelves for days on end. Mass Farming practices: Magnesium and other minerals have been depleted from much of the soil that we grow today's produce in. Similarly, fertiliser is often magnesium-poor yet calcium-rich. Medications: Many man-made drugs and phosphates from fizzy drinks and sweeteners like aspartame cause the body to waste magnesium by binding with the magnesium molecules.
