MAGNESIUM FOR MENOPAUSE

Magnesium is a natural alternative that can help with some of the common symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. While it cannot directly treat or cure menopause, it can help alleviate some symptoms associated with this stage of life.

How Magnesium Can Help During Menopause

  1. Reducing hot flushes: Some studies suggest that magnesium supplementation may help decrease the frequency and intensity of hot flushes experienced by menopausal women.
  2. Relieving sleep disturbances: Menopause often causes sleep disruptions such as insomnia or restless sleep. Magnesium can help promote relaxation and improve sleep quality.
  3. Managing mood swings and anxiety: Hormonal changes during menopause can lead to mood swings, irritability, and anxiety. Magnesium has calming effects on the nervous system and may help to reduce these symptoms.
  4. Supporting bone health: Women going through menopause are at an increased risk of developing osteoporosis. Magnesium works synergistically with calcium and vitamin D to support bone health and reduce the risk of fractures.
  5. Regulating blood pressure: Menopausal women may experience changes in blood pressure. Magnesium can help regulate blood pressure levels and support cardiovascular health.

How to Use Topical Magnesium During Menopause

For Hot Flushes & Anxiety

Spray Lavender Magnesium Oil or Pure Magnesium Oil onto your tummy and rub it in to help reduce feelings of anxiety and hot flushes. Use several times a day as needed.

For Sleep

Massage Magnesium Body Butter or Lavender Magnesium Oil into the soles of your feet before bed. The soles of your feet and legs are a fantastic place to encourage longer, deeper sleep and help prevent restless legs.

For Muscle Tension & Joint Pain

Massage Magnesium Body Butter or Peppermint Magnesium Oil directly into sore, tense muscles and joints for relief.

Recovery Soak

Soak in Magnesium Bath Salt to replenish minerals, support bone health, and promote deep relaxation — especially beneficial during menopause when magnesium levels are often depleted.

Dietary Sources of Magnesium

Include magnesium-rich foods in your diet such as leafy green vegetables (spinach, kale), nuts and seeds (almonds, pumpkin seeds), legumes (black beans, lentils), whole grains (brown rice, quinoa), and dark chocolate.
