Hi on the back of the Westlab Epsom salts I buy from Home Bargains there is a small not at the bottom stating it is food grade. Thank you for your article. It was interesting to read.

In reply to MEIDY. No, the Westlab epsom salt is not classed as food grade so I wouldn't recommend drinking it. But you can buy food grade epson salt on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2FTOtLq

In reply to Mavis McCrossan. I haven't heard of that before but I am sure it works as plants need a good quality mineral-rich soil to grow. It may be worth asking a gardener or a florist.

I read somewhere that plants thrive better if you add some when watering.However I can not remember how much to add to what amount of water. Does anyone know?

In reply to Heidi. You cannot drink the one that I tried but there is a version intended especially for drinking. I think I saw it in Home Bargains.

In reply to Lauretta.

I also have the magnesium spray actually but I don’t like this tingling that it leaves behind, especially before I am going to bed, so I don’t use it that very often these days. I think that using Epsom salt is slightly better way to increase your magnesium levels in the body and relax those sore muscles.
I am glad you liked the article Lauretta and thanks for stopping by!

Great article. I’ve really noticed the effect of magnesium spray on sore/tight muscles, but I’m yet to try epsom salts in a bath for muscle soreness. You’ve definitely got me thinking it’s time to give it a try. Keep up the good work 🙂
