Some is also absorbed thru the skin, and may help if there is deficiency.
Some Autism treatments use it, for the sulfate portion also..they claim autistic patients have errors in sulfates, and this helps. They use a cream from Kirkman labs and rub it into the back.
I find it has good local effects. And it is great in the bathtub too.

Mrs. D,
Magnesium soaks cause a flare up in my feet. So does foot massage
. Does this reaction give any clues about the type of neuropathy I have? It seems to be counterintuitive. You would think that increasing blood flow either by heat or by rubbing would help but it always causes a flare up.
Mary B., they say it is idiopathic small fiber, but ?
BTW, whoever came up with them I love the emoticons
