What is Magnesium Chloride?
Magnesium is a naturally occurring mineral. Magnesium is essential for a variety of functions throughout the body but is particularly important for the nerves and muscles. Magnesium chloride can be used to treat or stop deficiencies in magnesium (a lack of magnesium that is naturally present within the human body). Magnesium chloride can also be used for other purposes that are not mentioned in this guide.
