Transdermal magnesium absorption from bath preparations
cohort Grade C 2004
Authors: Waring, R.H.
Key Findings
- Demonstrates transdermal absorption of magnesium from bath preparations
- Blood magnesium levels increased after bathing in magnesium-containing solutions
Study demonstrating transdermal magnesium absorption from bath preparations. Relevant as supporting evidence for the mineral-delivery mechanism in peat balneotherapy — if magnesium can be absorbed through skin from bath water, the fulvic acid-chelated minerals in peat baths may be similarly bioavailable.
