I'm so excited that this is working. I took pictures and if you would like to see them I will send them. I have to say though the soaking of the corns is the hard part. She has 2 corns one on each foot of her back legs and she's not a happy camper when I come with the water. Last night I was able to pull a lot of the big corn out and a small portion of the big one. Amazing is all I can say. Hopefully soon Lizzy will no longer be limping and can enjoy running again. I'm sending a copy of this to our local greyhound rescue group so they can pass the  word on.

With the added benefit of a massage that softens and opens the skin, magnesium is absorbed even more readily, resulting in ultimate relaxation. Magnesium massage is a treatment fit for a queen, for Cleopatra herself.

More than 300 enzymes require magnesium as a cofactor. Complexed with adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the main carrier of metabolic energy in the body, magnesium is essential for all biosynthetic processes: glycolysis, formation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), energy-dependent membrane transport, transmission of genetic code for protein synthesis, and muscle function. Magnesium is also involved in maintaining normal heart function and blood pressure.

                                                                                                                                Low magnesium is associated with dramatic increases in free radical generation as well as glutathione depletion and this is vital.  Glutathione requires magnesium for its synthesis; glutathione decreases mercury.

                                                                                                                                Magnesium deficiency causes glutathione loss, which is not affordable because glutathione helps to defend the body against damage from cigarette smoking, exposure to radiation, cancer, chemotherapy, and toxins such as alcohol and just about everything else.
