Epsom Salt
The Health, Beauty, and Environmental Wonder!
MgSO4 = Magnesium Sulfate
Neatly boxed or bagged, Epsom Salt is almost always overlooked or avoided by the average consumer. Nevertheless, Epsom Salt is as useful as it is mysteriously enchanting!
The modern term Epsom comes from the mineral rich waters of the town with the same name. Like the town of Bath, England, Epsom was revered for it’s healing waters. Sulfate has a negative charge and, Magnesium a positive. Salt molecules form because of the opposing charges banding together.
Prior to going forward I must mention, I only recommend food grade Epsom Salt. All other non-internal/topical needs for Epsom Salt should start with the purest form, which is food grade.
