OriginMagnesium chloride is derived from magnesium compounds and chlorine, typically sourced from mineral deposits or seawater brines. It is synthesized by reacting magnesium oxide or magnesium carbonate with hydrochloric acid.
Magnesium Chloride is magnesium Chloride was used as a laxative. An alkaline earth metal, magnesium is important for many biochemical functions and reactions; for bone and muscle function, protein and fatty acid formation, activation of B vitamins, blood clotting, insulin secretion, and ATP formation. More than 300 enzymes require magnesium for catalytic action. The adult daily requirement is about 300 mg/day. Magnesium is found in many green plants, vegetables, and seeds; chlorophyll is a magnesium-centered porphyrin compound. Magnesium salts are used for magnesium deficiency supplementation. (NCI04)
