how is this different from epsom salts?

To my knowledge these have a more pure source as well as a better properties for healing.Ive been using these as a Mag spray for awhile now and they work far better than any epsom slats.

Epsom salts are magnesium SULFATE. But this product is magnesium CHLORIDE. The two are very different chemically. Most importantly, magnesium chloride is better for making magnesium oil (you can boil it half and half with filtered water and let it cool down... voila! Fresh magnesium oil).

Covers Magnesium defiency. It has magnesium in it. It's not salt. It comes in flakes, instead of salt. The bag is nicer than most Epsom Salt bags.

This is pure magnesium that is absorbed transdermally or through the skin and is not a salt. You can take a magnesium supplement but you have to digest it and too much can affect your digestive track. This does not do that and magnesium is needed by every organ in your body. It is a wonderful bath treat. Ancient Minerals also makes a magnesium gel and magnesium oil which are applied topically and rinsed off after 20 minutes or so. Same principal.

Hi Jennerjahan ~ Magnesium Choride is what the mag flakes are, 100% pure. The epsom salts are magnesium sulfate, which is not as effective for the purpose of healing. The transdermal mag flakes solution (ration 1 pt flakes 4 parts water) does amazing things. I even pass it around among my hospice patients (I'm strictly a volunteer) & it soothes, even if it does not heal them. "The Iodine Crisis" by Lynne Farrow (can be bought on Amazon) is chock full of GREAT INFO!!! ~ bonnie

My doctor advised me to put 2 to 3 cups of Epsom salt in a standard size bathtub. I mix the Village Naturals epsom salts with plain epsom salts about 1 to 5 to help stretch the more expensive salts.

The difference is basically your volume of water use. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this product. I live in Oxford, Pa. where this water conditioner is distributed in USA. I have well water that is very hard and I use a traditional salt water softener. I have used this for over 6 months and while this cannot soften water, it is supposed to stop scale buildup. Well, there is no change in scale buildup and I can't see any positive results. I had to re-connect my salt based conditioner. I really wanted this product to work, considering it affects my local economy, but sadly it is useless. I should have listened to local plumbers who told me it is a waste of money.

I always do both of those together. These tablets are ascorbic acid, and Epsom salts are magnesium sulfate. I have never heard that they can't be used together.

I have not purchased their regular soap. However, based on the description I would say the difference is the fragrance. Both are moderately high glycerin soaps which will leave your skin feeling very soft. I am satisfied with the fragrance that they have added. It's quietly masculine and not over powering to others. Very much a gentleman's shave.

As Long As They Are Both Liquid EPDM I Don't Know That There Is A Difference.

There is no difference...this is an amazing brand of erytherol granules highly recommend it!

I use epsom salt with mine Vitamin C disks. I haven't noticed any problems & don't expect to. It's just a vitamin so there shouldn't be any reason not to add essential oils or salts to the bath.

I've been using Celtic Sea Salt for more than ten years. I have tried other types of sea salt, such as the pink one, but did not have as good a feeling about them. I prefer the wet, grey salt that indicates it's still alive.I , myself, salt very little

I added some to Epsom salt and a few drops of vanilla(same brand)I used about 5 drops of the lavender; was a very relaxing and amazing smelling bath!!

I haven't noticed any difference in the quality of the end product (I use this for soap). The beads just pour much more easily and don't clump together like powder and crystals

Electronic water softeners magnetically charge the mineral ions that form scale to be less (or non) "sticky", so the minerals are still there, they just don't stick to pipes, etc. -- and are even removing my existing mineral deposits. Funny side-effect: All the potassium coming out of my pipes is giving bath water a rather nice blue tint. Doesn't give that slippery feeling you get with salt-based softeners. This is a good entry-level unit. There are more-expensive units for high-volume commercial applications out there. Try one, and keep an eye on the results.

The ingredients are different, so hard to compare the two. In any case, if you want faster relief, I would recommend our Emuaid Max. Look up ASIN B00GK6EDEW in the amazon search box. Please choose the listing from Amazing Health.thanks,Greg Jones, OwnerAmazing Health

I've used Epsom salts & they work great. Be really easy on the soap or it'll overflow, but yes you can use soap.

The box just states it is "Sea Salt" and no other information is provided. My best guess would be it is Olde Thompson Sea Salt which may be purchased through them, and several other retailers. It is very mild but not terribly distinctive. I have had this mill for at least 7 years and used many different salts of differing textures and moisture content without any issues.

This is used for making tofu. That is how I use it. Nigari, which is also used for tofu, is derrived from sea salt. Epsom salt, which can also be used for tofu, is derrived from nigari. Gypsum is a further refinement of this salt. They can all be used for tofu. Nigari yields a firm tofu, epsom salt makes a softer but grainy tofu, and gypsum yields a smooth creamy tofu. Gypsum is what is most used in Korea to make tofu. Nigari is mostly used in Japan and Both Epsom salts and gypsum are popular in China.

I can't see any difference. As long as there are no additives, emu oil is what it is. I recommend buying only pure emu oil. More money doesn't always mean more purity.
