Magnesium is VERY important for removing toxins including heavy

metals from the body. Epsom salt baths allows the magnesium to be

absorbed through the skin and the magnesium then assists in removing

the toxins.

I think kirkman sells a lotion with the magnesium in there already.

Interesting. I first used epsom salt when I started dietary change.

1/4 cup of a gelatinous substance came out of me. It was frightening.

It was like a laxative for my little guy and he was in there for two

seconds flat and drank none of the bath water. My daughter does not

do as well unless I shampoo her head with it. Yesterday she became a

new kid. Wierd.

I never do it long because of my firs experience. I had to " sleep it

off. "

Wow - love these stories and posts.

I've had my 3 yo on epsom salts for a couple of

months now. He did have an increase in stinky urine;

I wasn't sure why. But, more amazingly and the reason

we kept using the epsom salts, is that he has solid

poops the following day. He normally has diarrhea

(chronic).

We use 1 cup dissolved in hot water, then add cold

water to make a shallow tepid bath. When he lays down

the water comes up about half way over his body. He

stays in 20 minutes at a time, or longer if he will.

I would definitely change the water after the first child is finished

bathing.

The most common way is to mix 1-2 cups of epsom salts (aka magnesium

sulfate) into bath water, then soak for at least 20 minutes. I've

read that hot water is better. What I do is dissolve them in hot

bath water, then put the kids in when it's not too hot. They have

different levels of temperature tolerance, so I put the ones who like

warm baths in first. This is obviously not precise (notice I didn't

mention how much water is in the tub, or how many kids), but it seems

to work. Kirkman sells a magnesium sulfate cream that you can apply

three times per day in lieu of the baths. The benefits: calming and

detoxifying. People who have special dietary needs find that this

can reduced the negative reaction to " infractions " . That's one of

the detox effects.

Is there a concern about putting the second kid in the first kids

detox water (I know I find problems everywhere...character flaw...but

I hope I am wrong here)?

Also, what ever came of the discussion on this board of espsom salts

and lead in the tub paint?
