REVOLUTIONARY NEW PRODUCT SOLVES WIDESPREAD HEALTH DILEMMA
ALPHARETTA, GA (MMD Newswire) January 9, 2009 -- DermaMag, a revolutionary new spray-on liquid, is the first product of its kind to enable magnesium mineral absorption through the skin. Skin absorption is an important advancement because people only absorb a small percentage of magnesium from the food and water they ingest. Studies show an alarming 75% of Americans are deficient in the mineral magnesium. Magnesium deficiency has been linked to many of today’s modern ailments including heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, migraines and depression.
Food and drinking water in America contains only half the magnesium it did 100 years ago due to modern large-scale farming practices and municipal water filtering. A constant supply of dietary magnesium is required to maintain basic human health. Magnesium is needed for the proper functioning of our nervous system, for energy production in our cells, and to keep our heart and arteries from getting over-calcified.
After years of correlating studies and research data, Dr. Mildred S. Seelig, MD, author of The Magnesium Factor and pioneer of magnesium research, stated “Most modern heart disease is caused by magnesium deficiency. A vast and convincing body of research, largely ignored, has convinced us and many colleagues of this fact.” Heart disease is currently America’s number two cause of death.
Although recent landmark studies have demonstrated the critical need for magnesium in our diet, the importance of magnesium has been known for several decades. But magnesium has yet to garner the same attention that other minerals, such as calcium, have attracted. “Magnesium is the forgotten mineral. We need it every day, like the air we breathe,” says Mitch Pelavin, Director of Magnesium Direct, makers of DermaMag. “Calcium gets all the attention in the media and on shelves at the grocery store, but studies show that magnesium may be even more important to our health than calcium. America is currently facing a magnesium deficiency crisis and nobody is talking about it.”
In the July 2006 edition of the journal Nutrition Research, a study of over 10,000 people in the United States found that 79% were deficient in magnesium. Further, it showed that 26 percent of the people in the study were taking magnesium supplements and it was this group of people that demonstrated lower levels of C-Reactive protein. Elevated C-Reactive protein is quickly becoming one of the most powerful predictors of heart disease.
Researchers believe that magnesium was once plentiful in our food and drinking water. In the year 1900, the average American diet contained twice the magnesium it does today. Over the last century, however, modern large-scale farming operations have depleted our soils, but have not replenished the magnesium taken. Dr. Carolyn Dean, MD, author of The Magnesium Miracle and well known expert on magnesium states “Because most agricultural land in America has been overworked for decades and fertilizers don’t replace this important mineral, magnesium is rarely found in our soils. If there is no magnesium in the soil, plants will have none; they cannot manufacture it out of thin air.”
Compounding this problem further, magnesium supplements available at the local health food store or pharmacy are absorbed at low levels as they pass through the digestive system. Dr. Jay Cohen, MD, a well known author and national expert on drug dosage states that "When you take magnesium tablets or capsules, your body absorbs only 30 percent of the magnesium they contain. With many top-selling products, absorption is much less, as little as 10 percent."
DermaMag solves the absorption problem by using the uptake properties of the skin. Doctors have discovered that our skin functions as a highly permeable membrane, allowing desirable nutrients to pass through and enter the blood stream directly. This process works in similar fashion to popular transdermal patches found in drug stores.
Although DermaMag is sometimes referred to as “magnesium oil,” it’s not actually an oil, but a super-saturated solution of magnesium chloride in water. The magnesium chloride comes from a recently tapped underground source in Europe called the Zechstein Sea. This sea, which existed over 250 million years ago, has dried up over the millennia, leaving behind a very pure and natural underground source of magnesium chloride, not exposed to human contaminants.
“DermaMag is different than any magnesium supplement to date because it lets you absorb magnesium efficiently through the skin,” says Mr. Pelavin, “and the best part is that it’s one hundred percent natural.”
Magnesium Direct, the makers of DermaMag, are located in Alpharetta, GA. For further information contact Mitch Pelavin at 888-249-8574 EXT 85, info@magnesiumdirect.com, or visit: www.magnesiumdirect.com .
