Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate)

Epsom salt, also known as magnesium sulfate, is a chemical compound composed of magnesium, sulfur, and oxygen. It’s commonly used in baths to help relax muscles, reduce soreness, and promote wellness. When dissolved in warm water, it’s absorbed through the skin, providing magnesium which supports muscle and nerve function, and sulfur which aids in skin health. Epsom salt is also used in gardening to improve soil magnesium levels and as a mild laxative. Its versatility makes it popular for health, beauty, and horticultural purposes, offering a natural way to support physical and plant health.
