Magnesium dilates blood vessels and can
Lower high blood pressures.

Those without hypertension may see reductions
Too . So you can take your blood pressure
to check on that.

Applying to large muscle areas may be
Less systemically absorbed than to areas
With visible veins. The wrists and inner arms
Give me more blood pressure lowering
Than the thighs and back.

Large deep tissue would hold the magnesium
More than other application sites.

People with normal kidney functions excrete
Magnesium quickly. The elderly or those
With failing kidneys do not.

Magnesium overdoses most commonly
come from overuse of Fleet enemas and
oral Fleet Phophosoda laxatives.

I find that application of the lotion to
Thighs and back areas lasts me a few days
So I can rotate applications easily.

You might consider using an oral supplement
Too as a support. Aim for 200mg of
elemental daily or eat foods high in
Magnesium like almonds.
