A member asked:
Can magnesium oil be as easily absorbed as a magnesium pill? less tummy issues?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Clever marketing?: The sellers of magnesium oil write that their product is magnesium dissolved in water, with a slippery feel, so is called an "oil". Sounds like clever marketing, with some slippery claims. One should ask them for research studies comparing patients who used the magnesium oil (water), with patients who used the regular oral forms of magnesium. If no good research study is available, then beware!
