What is Magnesium and Why do we need it?


Sadly, many adults are Magnesium deficient and given Magnesium plays such an integral role to our health and well-being, it is concerning.

What does Magnesium do for you?

Magnesium is necessary for the normal function of over 300 enzyme systems, for muscle relaxation, immune function, cardiac function, clotting, nerve conduction etc. I cannot think of a bodily department in which magnesium is not essential. It prevents heart disease, cancer, blood pressure, kidney stones and improves energy, sleep etc. explains Dr. Mayhill.

Magnesium deficiencies in the modern world have been attributed to environmental, agricultural factors and dietary trends also, but it's not all doom and gloom!

The good news is that Magnesium deficiency can be rectified, by taking magnesium supplements orally or by applying it to your body (transdermal). We need magnesium in fairly large quantities, so transdermal is a great way to help boost your levels and avoid side effects like diarrhoea, which effect some people when taking oral supplements.

Additionally, by applying Magnesium to your body you are not only helping to increase Magnesium levels but you can also help to relieve symptoms like Restless Legs, Cramps, pain from Arthritis, Anxiety, Headaches, Eczema and Psoriasis.


At MISMO we have created a body lotion/gel called Magnesium Gel Complex that contains Magnesium Chloride, fortified with MSM. Both minerals are highly effective nutritional supplements which help ease pain. Magnesium Gel Forte is designed to work as a body lotion while delivering mineral benefits. One teaspoon (5 grams) contains 1.2grams of Magnesium Chloride which is a great boost for your body. MSM is an anti-inflammatory which also contributes greatly to pain relief.

Alternatively, MISMO also stocks Magnesium Chloride Powder. Produced from pristine sea water, this natural mineral can be taken orally or made up into your very own Magnesium Oil concentrate.

How to make your own Magnesium Oil.

To make the oil simply add 50g of the powder to 50ml warm drinkable distilled water. This makes a potent and very effective mixture that can be put into a spray bottle and applied to the body, with similar results to our Magnesium Gel.

Given that Magnesium is considered according to Dr Jerry Aikawa, the most important mineral to man and all living organisms, and directly contributes to both our mental and physical well-being, it seems an easy decision to start checking and maintaining our own levels.

Naturally, we always recommend that anyone introducing a new supplement into their routine consult with a medical professional prior to starting - and it is worth doing sooner rather than later as incorporating Magnesium into your daily routine could very well be the change you are looking for in your life.

Supports joint health and flexibility – Helps maintain comfortable movement and mobility.

Promotes cartilage and connective tissue health – Provides essential sulfur to support strong, healthy joints.

✅ Boosts skin hydration and elasticity – Protects collagen and prevents wrinkles for firmer, healthier skin.

Strengthens hair and nails – Encourages strong, healthy growth while preventing brittleness.

Aids post-exercise recovery – Helps support muscle repair and ease post-workout discomfort.

Supports digestion and gut health – Contributes to overall digestive well-being and nutrient absorption.

Why it works: MSM is a natural source of sulfur, an essential nutrient that helps maintain joint health, skin elasticity, and strong hair and nails. It plays a key role in supporting connective tissues, promoting flexibility, and assisting the body's natural recovery processes. Since sulfur is lost in modern food processing, supplementing with MSM helps replenish these essential nutrients for long-term well-being.

Who is it for? Anyone looking for natural arthritis support, improved joint health, stronger hair and nails, or enhanced skin and gut function. 

How does MSM support joint health?

  • Reduces inflammation – Helps ease joint pain and stiffness for better movement.

Many people who take MSM as part of their routine report feeling more comfortable and mobile in their daily movements

How to Use

  • Start small: Take ¼–½ teaspoon per day (or 1–2 capsules) to avoid detox effects.
  • Increase gradually: After a week, slowly increase to 2–6 grams daily (5–6 capsules), adjusting based on your needs.

Best taken in the morning: Many find it gives a natural energy boost. Mix with water or juice.

If detox symptoms like headaches occur, reduce the dose and build up slowly.

WARNINGS: If taking strong blood thinners, do not take MSM without your doctor's approval. Not to be taken by children without a health professional's advice.  MSM can also interfere with the accuracy of the blood test for liver enzymes by sometimes producing false positive results. It is recommended you cease taking MSM at least 4 days before these blood tests. You can resume after the test.

How much MSM should I take daily?

  • Start small: ¼–½ teaspoon (or 1–2 capsules) to allow your body to adjust.
  • Increase slowly: Most people take around 1 teaspoon daily (4g).
  • Higher doses may provide extra relief—adjust based on how you feel.

Should I choose MSM capsules or powder?

MSM Powder is the most cost-effective option for daily use at home. It is the best option for those on a larger dose (2tsp+).

MSM Capsules are convenient for travel and great for those who don’t like the taste of MSM powder.

Where does MISMO MSM come from?

MISMO MSM is tested for purity and quality, ensuring you get a clean, bioavailable supplement.

There are two types of MSM:

  • Distilled Ultra-Pure MSM – The gold standard, made using a 4-step distillation process for the purest form.
  • Pure-Crystalline MSM – Created through a centrifuge process, maintaining high purity while being slightly more affordable.

Every batch is independently tested to ensure zero additives, fillers, or anti-caking agents.

What is the science of MSM?

Sulfur is essential for keeping your skin firm, joints flexible, and connective tissue strong. MSM provides a natural source of sulfur, helping your body produce collagen and elastin—the key proteins that keep skin smooth and resilient. Nearly half of your body's sulfur is found in your skin, muscles, cartilage, and bones, making it crucial for overall strength and mobility.
