Zechstein magnesium oil - OptiMSM® highly concentrated, approx. 257 mg magnesium per 2.5 ml

Product detailed description

Why buy

Healthstrong 's ultra-pure magnesium oil for transdermal application and rapid absorption is an effective way to increase intracellular magnesium levels through the skin, the body's major organ.

The benefits of magnesium in a nutshell

• Magnesium is needed for hundreds of enzymatic reactions in the body and it is generally believed that most people are deficient. It therefore needs to be constantly replenished.
• When applied to the skin, magnesium is quickly absorbed transdermally and does not have to pass through the digestive system as in the case of tablets or powder.
• It is thus an easy and effective way to restore its level.

^OptiMSM® is one of the safest, highest quality and best researched types of MSM.

^OptiMSM® is a clinically tested branded form of MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) produced by the American company Bergstrom Nutrition. MSM is a sulphur-rich organic compound that occurs naturally in some animals and plants and is also found in the human body.

It is most commonly used as a dietary supplement for arthritis and is also used for other inflammatory conditions, such as allergies. Compared to generic MSM, the safety and efficacy of ^OptiMSM® is supported by numerous clinical studies. Its main research-backed benefits include improvements in:

• joint health
• regeneration during exercise
• skin health and beauty
• immune system function

In addition, ^OptiMSM® also stands out because it uses a more expensive and higher quality distillation process to create 99.9% pure MSM, while other MSM producers use a crystallization method that may contain impurities.

The benefits of ^OptiMSM® in a nutshell

• High quality. ^OptiMSM® is produced by a patented distillation process that ensures high quality, 99.9% pure MSM.
• Clinically investigated. Several human studies confirm the benefits of ^OptiMSM® for exercise recovery, joints, skin and the immune system.
• Consistent. ^OptiMSM® has been manufactured for nearly three decades by the only North American company specializing in MSM production.

• Any residue can be wiped off after more than 20 minutes or, if you prefer, apply and leave on for more than 20 minutes, then bathe/shower normally.
• A "magnesium tingle" may be felt during absorption, which may indicate low magnesium levels. This will change with regular use.
• Suggested use: up to x20 squirts of magnesium oil per day or more if recommended by your healthcare professional.

What is Zechstein

Healthstrong strives to provide the best magnesium, which is why they use Zechstein magnesium chloride - which is mined at source, 1,600 metres below ground level.

250 million years ago, this bitter salt was abundant in the Zechstein Sea. Over time, the sea filled in the underground deposits, which were then trapped by the overlying rocks.

As a result, while the Zechstein Sea no longer exists, these layers have been preserved, and are full of magnesium chloride, just as they were millions of years ago. This magnesium is therefore very pure and free of pollutants.

Geological location

The Zechstein Sea, which existed approximately 250 million years ago, was an important geological feature in the Late Permian. It covered an area equivalent to the North Sea today, as well as lowland areas in Britain, Germany and the northern European plain. The Zechstein Sea lay in the rain shadow of the central Pangea Mountains to the south.

This ancient sea has played a vital role in Earth's history and it is fascinating that life on land evolved from the same waters. The Zechstein Sea has experienced five cycles of floods and droughts over several million years. It was located at a depth of approximately 1,600 metres in northwestern Europe.

Interestingly, despite its proximity to the equator, the Zechstein Sea was formed as a result of marine transgression during the deglaciation phase. The southern part of Pangea, which represented the former and future Gondwanaland, supported glaciers during the Early Permian. Eventually the Zechstein Sea disappeared as part of the general marine regression that preceded and accompanied the Permian-Triassic extinction.

In summary, the Zechstein Sea has left its mark on the geological record and its evaporite rocks continue to be of economic importance in the North Sea petroleum province. These rocks include halite (commonly known as "rock salt"), anhydrite, dolomite and shale.
