What are the key findings of recent research?
There have been several studies that demonstrate the effectiveness of Magnesium Chloride in skin absorption.
Here are some key findings from recent research:
- Transdermal Absorption: A study published in 2017 indicated that magnesium ions can penetrate the stratum corneum (the outermost layer of skin) in a concentration and time-dependent manner. This suggests that magnesium can be effectively absorbed through the skin.
- Role of Hair Follicles: Research has sown that the top layer of skin is permeable to magnesium chloride, with absorption significantly aided by hair follicles. This means that using magnesium chloride in topical formulations can enhance its effectiveness.
- Bathing Studies: A study conducted by the University of Queensland confirmed that magnesium can be absorbed through the skin via topical applications, such as magnesium baths. This method was shown to increase magnesium levels in the body effectively.
- Magnesium Cream Study: Another investigation aimed to determine whether magnesium in a cream could be absorbed transdermally in humans to improve magnesium status. The results showed positive absorption, indicating that topical applications can enhance magnesium levels in the body.
- Intervention Studies: Some studies have measured the absorption of magnesium across the skin due to bathing in magnesium chloride solutions, further supporting the idea that transdermal absorption is a viable method for increasing magnesium levels.
- These findings collectively support the notion that magnesium chloride can be effectively absorbed through the skin, making it a useful option for those looking to increase their magnesium intake through topical applications.
