Can I take Oral Magnesium and Transdermal Magnesium Supplementation at the same time?

Using both Transdermal and Oral Magnesium as part of a daily regime is a great way to treat and prevent Magnesium deficiency.

Your body regulates the amount of Magnesium it absorbs through the skin, so there’s no risk of applying too much topically. If you experience a gentle laxative effect from Oral Magnesium Supplementation, simply use less of the powder and more of the Transdermal Magnesium.

Is there any risk in applying to much Magnesium transdermally?

Your skin effectively regulates the amount of magnesium absorbed. There is no risk of taking in too much magnesium transdermally.
