What are Epsom Salts ?
Is Magnesium Sulfate the same as Epsom Salts?
What should I use for liver cleansing?
What is Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate?
Answer:
Yes, Magnesium Sulfate is the same as Epsom Salts. Other names of the same chemical are: Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate, Magnesium Sulphate Heptahydrate, Magnesium Sulphate Hydrated, MgSO4 + 7H2O , MgSO4, Hydrated Magnesium Sulfate, EPSOMITE.
All those different names for a same white Epsom Salt.
For liver cleansing (Dr. Hulda Clark recipe), it is recommended to use Epsom Salts, also going by names: Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate (Magnesium Sulphate Heptahydrate),(Magnesium Sulphate Hydrated), called Epsom Salts!
Chemical name: Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate ( or Hydrated)
Chemical Formula: MgSO4 + 7H2O , (Hydrated Magnesium Sulfate)
Magnesium sulfate reduces striated muscle contractions and blocks
peripheral neuromuscular transmission by reducing acetylcholine
release at the myoneural junction. In emergency care, magnesium
sulfate is used to manage seizures associated with toxemia of
pregnancy. Other uses include uterine relaxation (to inhibit
contractions of premature labor), as a bronchodilator after
beta-agonist and anticholinergic agents have been used, replacement
therapy for magnesium deficiency, as a cathartic to reduce the
absorption of poisons from the Gl tract, and in the initial therapy
for convulsions. Magnesium sulfate is gaining popularity as an initial
treatment in the management of various dysrhythmias, particularly
torsades de pointes, and dysrhythmias secondary to a tricyclic
antidepressant overdose or digitalis toxicity. The drug is also
considered as a class Ila agent (probably helpful) for refractory
ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia after
administration of lidocaine or bretylium doses.
Intravenous magnesium sulfate reduces the rate of hospital admissions and improves pulmonary function in patients with severe acute asthma treated in the emergency department.

Pre-eclampsia (also known as toxemia and Pregnancy-Induced High Blood
Pressure) consists of high blood pressure, protein in the urine and
edema (swelling). It can rapidly become severe pre-eclampsia, with
very high blood pressure, visual disturbances, failing kidneys and
elevated liver enzymes. In rare cases, pre-eclampsia develops into
eclampsia, where potentially fatal convulsions occur. It also can
become HELLP Syndrome (hemolysis (H), which is the breaking down of
red blood cells, elevated liver enzymes (EL), and low platelet count
(LP)), which is potentially fatal to both the woman and her baby or
babies.
Is there a maximun intake of ES for men and pregnant woman?
Answer:
Every person is different, and every person should find his/her maximum dose of epsom salt.
Question:
Is there a maximun intake of ES for pregnant woman?
Answer:
Pregnant woman can do the cleanse, if she is healthy and strong, but should first test herself on small amount of all the ingredients, for several days.
She should be physically active, walking every day, and able to walk at least 5 km a day.
She should be increasing amount of oil every next day, until she can tolerate 10 or 20 tbsp a day.
If she can take 1teasp of ES a day with no problems, and 10 to 20 tbsp of oil daily, then she is well enough to do the cleanse with no problems.
She should drink a lot of water, and watch her diet!
For pregnant woman, it is enough with 1 tbsp of ES in the evening, and 1 tbsp of Epsom Salts in the morning, when doing cleanse.
(1/2 of the standard dose)
If she is extremely sensitive to Epsom salts. them 1/4 of the standard dose should be enough.
Dr Harris,
I do suffer from aweful migrains. I use imitrix. I would love to stop taking shot/pills for them if there is something natural. Am I correct in thinking that I lack the mag and should take that in pill form?
I would like to ask if Epsom Salt can be use for detoxing as well as relief of constipation?
I did the Lemon Detox Diet a while ago and had to drink a Sea Salt for detoxing and I find it very useful but very expensive at the same time to buy it from the distributor. So I would like to know if it's possible to use Epsom Salt for it instead?
The dosage for the salt detox then was 1 tsp to 1 litre of warm water, would I be using the same dosage for the epsom salt?
I am told that the reason why the sea salt works is because the salt in the sea salt is much higher than what our body can recognise thats why instead of the salt going through our system it will come out straight away in form of a detox of the colon.
Would someone please verify that for me please.
what is the reason to ingest Epsom Salts in the morning after the flush..is the epsom salts not used to relax the liver duct before the oil mixture is taken and prevent pain
I had that same reasoning. The morning ES is to just to maintain the laxative purge during the day. I stopped doing that early on. What I do now is wait til the ES kicks in the next morning, drink water and follow with a salt water flush an hour later. That's my short version.
Can someone explain what is the difference between Magnesium sulfate Magnesium citrate and Magnesium oxide, please. Does all Magnesium have a laxative effect? I know that one of these Magnesium type is used in the very famous antacids (PPIs)Prevacid and Nexium as a main constitution. Those who take these prescription medicines often complain about tenderness or tightness around the Liver or Right rib cage or Gallbladder area. Is it possible that the gallbladder or the Liver is softened or enlarged due to the Magnesium ???? in the antacid. Could side effects of such antacids be a flaring up of Gallbladder problems?
There's a great deal of difference between various forms of magnesium. Different oral forms have different bioavailability. For example, magnesium oxide is the most poorly absorbed form of magnesium. It's often used in oral forms, and this is why the amounts of magnesium in these have to be so very high....so that enough gets absorbed.
Magnesium citrate is one of the most easily absorbed forms of magnesium, but as in all oral preparations, only about 3-=5- percent of the magnesium is absorbed at all thru the intestines. Depending on your purpose for taking magnesium, this can be a problem. If you are taking oral forms of magnesium to increase body levels of this mineral, which is being found to be deficient in over 68% of the US population......it can take six months to a year to bring levels up to where they should be, taking it everyday. One of the side effects of taking magnesium orally, is diarrhea....so doses have to be adjusted for this. There are also many intestinal problems that can interfere with the absorption of magnesium. We all need to ensure we have enough magnesium in our bodies, and it has been depleted from refined foods, our soils etc. and is not as easy to get enough in the diet alone, as it sounds. Depending on the form of magnesium used, long term use may also be a problem.
The IMVA (International Medical Veritas Association) has been investigating different forms of magnesium and has recommended that magnesium chloride is the most versatile, best absorbed, and safest in toxicity profiles. But it is recommended in the form of "transdermal" application instead of oral intake. This is a slightly oily lotion that can be applied to the skin or used in baths, foot baths....or many other ways. It is not used to treat constipation as many oral magnesium products are. It is used to increase body levels of magnesium, which is beneficial in preventing diabetes, cardiac problems, relieving stress, promoting sleep, reducing hypertension, reducing cholesterol.....and much more. It is an essential mineral that needs to be maintained at proper levels in our bodies. Studies of use of magnesium chloride oil in a foot bath with body spraying by Dr. Norm Shealy has shown that this method increases levels of magnesium faster than any oral supplements can.

I would like to know the benefits of bathing in epson salts
eg Magnesium effect on damaged / hypertrophied Muscle ,
effect on inflammation / osteoarthritis /
I have a client with Chronic Fybro Myalgia Syndrome and is Hypersensitive to bathing in epson salt?
Why would this be?
I have a short question. I high blood pressure due to kidney stones but don't want surgery. I notice in the Hulda Clark recipe
that you have to use Epsom Salts . Can people or should people
with high blood pressure use Epsom Salts? Will it make the
blood pressure go up??? I really want to rid my body of these
stones and see my pressure go down. Thanks! Kimey!
do you know if you can use the ones you buy to put in the bath? or do you have to get special Epsom Salts from a pharmacy or something...the ones for the bath say not recommended for oral use but I'm having a hard time finding any other kind....
I have read about Epsom Salts being useful in the treatment of autism (the sunderland protocol). There is a theory that the gut lining of autistic people has coagulated and that through sulphation from Epsom Salts this is reversed (I think). I am not a scientist and do not understand this well. Can anyone explain this to me?
Epsom Salts are fine when sulfates are needed, but there have been studies by Jean Durlach, a prominent magnesium researcher showing that use of magnesium chloride is more versatile and less toxic than magnesium sulfate.
Magnesium chloride or magnesium sulfate:
A genuine question
Summary : MgSO4 is routinely used in therapeutics despite its toxicity. The aim of the present review was to compare MgSO4 and MgCl2 effects in order to answer the question whether MgSO4 could be or not replaced by MgCl2. Considering that the two salts have both similar and proper effects, a clear-cut conclusion is not easy to draw. However, choosing MgCl2 seems advisable because of its more interesting clinical and pharmacological effects and its lower tissue toxicity as compared to MgSO
i want to do a Liver Flush but do not like the idea of taking in magnesium sulfat. is it effective to use natural Sea Salt as well? up to 2% of magnesium sulfat is found in sea salt, how much is that compared to epsam salt and how much would I have to take in for every flush?
