• What are Epsom Salts?

  Epsom Salts are crystals of Magnesium Sulphate, a mineral compound containing magnesium, sulphur and oxygen. Despite the name, they are very different from ordinary table salt, which is primarily sodium chloride. The name originates from Epsom in Surrey, England, where magnesium sulphate salts became associated with the area's mineral spring water.
• Why food grade?

  Magnesium Sulphate is available in a variety of grades, including agricultural, technical and food-grade products. Health Leads Epsom Salts are supplied as food-grade Magnesium Sulphate, a clearly specified grade with no additional ingredients. Food-grade status should not be interpreted as a recommendation for unrestricted internal use. Internal use should only be considered under the supervision of a qualified medical practitioner.
• Bath

  Add approximately 200g, around half of the 400g container, to a comfortably warm bath. Allow the crystals to dissolve and soak for approximately 20 minutes as part of your normal bathing routine.
• Foot soak

  Add approximately half a cup of Epsom Salts to a bowl or foot bath containing comfortably warm water. Allow the crystals to dissolve before soaking the feet.
• Household and garden use

  Magnesium Sulphate is also widely used for a variety of traditional household and plant-care applications. If garden use is your primary requirement, always consider the requirements of the particular plants and soil before application.
• Safety information

  For external use, avoid contact with the eyes. Do not apply to broken or irritated skin. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Take care when entering and leaving the bath, as wet surfaces may become slippery. Internal use should only be undertaken under the supervision of a qualified medical practitioner. Food-grade status does not mean internal use is appropriate for everyone. If you have a medical condition, are taking medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are under medical supervision, seek advice from a qualified healthcare professional before considering internal use. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Store in a cool, dry place with the container securely closed.
