SKU: B900-1
Hurry up! Sales Ends In
Magnesium Chloride is a chemical compound (MgCl2 ). Our flakes have been produced from seawater, after the Sodium Chloride has been removed, and the water has evaporated.
This product has been thoroughly tested for purity and is considered food grade.
Origin: Japan / China
Common use: In the culinary world, it is most commonly used as a coagulant in the preparation of tofu from soy milk also known as Nigari in Japan or Lushui in China.
Magnesium Chloride may also be useful as a topical application in baths or as sprays (aka Magnesium oil) for transdermal absorption to help correct magnesium deficiencies.
Recipe for "Magnesium Oil":
- Bring ½ cup of water to a boil in a non-aluminum saucepan. Turn off the heat and stir in ½ cup of magnesium flakes until dissolved. When cool, pour into a spray bottle.
- You just created a highly saturated Magnesium solution and when applied to the skin it feels somewhat greasy (thus the name). Avoid sensitive skin areas to reduce stinging sensation.
- Possible benefits include reduced muscle cramping, improved sleep, help with headaches, and as an anti-stress agent.
Storage: Store in a cool, dark, dry place

Homemade Deodorant Spray
I use these magnesium chloride flakes to make magnesium oil (1 part flakes, 1 part water) which I then pour into a spray bottle and use as a deodorant. Super simple and super effective, all while keeping my mag levels up!

Great quality and price!

Perfect!
Wonderful. Works as expected.

Wow what a great find!
So glad I stumbled upon this product and found out that it makes magnesium “oil”. I’ve been using magnesium oil already made, with good results, at $14 for 8 oz. Seemed reasonable.Making magnesium oil with these beautiful flakes is so easy and so economical! I can make the same 8 oz bottle of oil with just 1/2 cup of flakes plus 1/2 cup water.
