Dream State

There are 7 types of magnesium—sulfate, citrate, lactate, chloride, malate, taurate and oxide. The differences in naming refer to the other substances that the magnesium is mixed with, i.e. chlorine, sulfur or malic acid. Magnesium chloride is used frequently in supplements as it’s easier for the body to absorb and has minimal side effects when compared to other types of magnesium.

Each spray of Dream State™ contains 105.6mg of magnesium chloride.

The soles of the feet are one of the body’s most effective pathways for cellular uptake. Transdermal absorption of magnesium and uptake by cells is best achieved through sweat glands which are more concentrated on the feet compared to other parts of the body, meaning that the magnesium will be absorbed and distributed throughout the body more thoroughly.

In addition to heightened stress, anxiety and insomnia, a magnesium deficiency can cause a loss of appetite, headaches, nausea, general fatigue as well as muscle spasms and weakness. If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to consult with a doctor to eliminate other potential causes.

If your body’s cellular magnesium levels are low, applying magnesium to the skin may cause a slight tingle or sting. This is likely not an allergic reaction and is a sign that your body is building a tolerance to magnesium.

Magnesium can relieve muscle tension and pain by inhibiting calcium ions from entering cells and blocking the receptors in your nervous system that cause you to feel pain. Research studies have shown that magnesium can help reduce pain associated with muscle cramps, headaches, migraines and more.

Yes. Magnesium in your body creates energy by activating ADP—the fundamental unit of energy within the body’s cells. Lower levels of magnesium are a major factor in general fatigue as the body isn’t able to produce adequate amounts of energy.

Studies have shown that during times of stress and anxiety, the body burns through more magnesium and even depletes magnesium reserves, contributing to more stress and anxiety. Supplementing the amount of magnesium in the body allows us to better manage (and reduce) the symptoms of stress and anxiety.

Yes. Magnesium promotes healthy levels of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), a neurotransmitter that promotes sleep. It also helps treat muscle cramps and restless leg syndrome which can interrupt our body’s natural sleep cycle. Adding a magnesium supplement to your nightly regimen can be greatly effective in increasing the quality and duration of your sleep.
