Elektra Magnesium Flakes

Food-Grade Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate for Mineral Water, Baths & Foot Soaks

Elektra Magnesium Flakes are food-grade magnesium chloride hexahydrate (MgCl₂·6H₂O) mineral flakes designed for a variety of magnesium and electrolyte applications.

The flakes are approximately 98% magnesium chloride hexahydrate, with a minimum of 46% magnesium chloride, according to the manufacturer’s formulation information.

They dissolve readily in water and can be used to create a mild magnesium mineral water, as well as for relaxing baths and foot soaks.

Food Grade • Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate • Naturally Derived

Mineral Water

Elektra Magnesium Flakes can be used to add magnesium chloride to filtered drinking water.

Suggested starting dilution

Per 1 litre of filtered water:

½ gram (approximately one small pinch) provides about 80 mg of elemental magnesium.

This creates a relatively mild magnesium concentration comparable to the range found naturally in some mineral waters.

The concentration can be adjusted according to individual taste and intended use.

Important

Magnesium is an essential mineral, but drinking magnesium-fortified water should be considered one potential source of magnesium, not a replacement for a balanced diet.

Individual magnesium requirements vary.

If you have kidney disease, take medications, have a medical condition, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have been advised to restrict magnesium or other electrolytes, consult a qualified healthcare professional before consuming magnesium chloride water.

Magnesium Baths & Foot Soaks

Magnesium Flakes are also ideal for creating a simple, relaxing mineral bath or foot soak.

Bath

Add magnesium flakes to warm bath water and allow them to dissolve completely before entering the bath.

Foot Soak

Add magnesium flakes to a basin of warm water and soak feet comfortably for approximately 20–30 minutes.

A magnesium bath or foot soak can become a simple addition to an evening relaxation routine.

Why Magnesium Chloride?

Magnesium chloride is highly soluble in water, making it particularly convenient for mineral-water and bathing applications.

Elektra Magnesium Flakes are specifically magnesium chloride hexahydrate, rather than magnesium sulfate (Epsom salt) or another magnesium compound.

MgCl₂·6H₂O

The “hexahydrate” designation refers to the six molecules of crystallized water associated with the magnesium chloride compound.

Naturally Derived Mineral Composition

Elektra Magnesium Flakes contain approximately 2% naturally occurring sea trace minerals, according to the manufacturer’s formulation information.

The flakes are produced from naturally derived mineral salts, with sodium chloride removed during the dehydration process.

This creates a mineral product with a composition centered on magnesium chloride rather than ordinary sodium table salt.

Magnesium & Electrolyte Balance

Magnesium is an essential mineral that contributes to:

• Normal muscle function
• Normal nerve function
• Normal energy metabolism
• Normal electrolyte balance
• Maintenance of normal bones
• Reduction of tiredness and fatigue

Magnesium is one of several electrolytes required by the body. Sodium, potassium, calcium and chloride also play important roles in maintaining normal fluid and electrolyte balance.

For that reason, magnesium should be considered as part of the body’s broader electrolyte system rather than as a stand-alone solution for hydration.

How Much Magnesium Do You Need?

Individual magnesium requirements vary according to age, diet, activity level and other factors.

Sweating, dietary intake and other individual circumstances can affect electrolyte needs.

Rather than trying to determine your magnesium requirement from one product alone, use Elektra Magnesium Flakes as one component of a balanced approach that includes nutritious food and adequate fluids.

For questions about supplementation or individual magnesium requirements, consult a qualified healthcare professional.

Magnesium Chloride Flakes & Water

Magnesium chloride flakes are hygroscopic, meaning they naturally attract moisture from the air.

For this reason, the flakes may become damp or sticky when exposed to humid conditions.

This is a normal characteristic of magnesium chloride and does not necessarily indicate that the product has been compromised.

Storage

Keep tightly sealed.

Store in a cool, dry place away from humidity and moisture.

A Simple Magnesium Routine

Mineral Water

½ gram per litre of filtered water ≈ 80 mg elemental magnesium

Bath

Add magnesium flakes to warm bath water and soak comfortably.

Foot Soak

Add magnesium flakes to warm water and soak feet for approximately 20–30 minutes.

Use the format that fits your lifestyle.

Magnesium & Topical Use

Magnesium Flakes can be dissolved in water for bathing and topical applications.

The amount of magnesium that crosses intact human skin and contributes to systemic magnesium levels remains an area of ongoing research.

A bath or foot soak should therefore be viewed primarily as a body-care and relaxation practice, rather than as a guaranteed method of correcting magnesium deficiency.

A Note About Internal Use

Elektra Magnesium Flakes are food grade, but food grade does not automatically mean that every possible method of consumption is appropriate for every person.

If using magnesium chloride in drinking water, follow the product label and recommended dilution.

Do not consume concentrated magnesium chloride solutions.

Excessive oral magnesium can cause gastrointestinal effects such as loose stools or diarrhea.

People with kidney disease or certain medical conditions may be at greater risk from excessive magnesium intake and should seek professional advice before using magnesium supplements.
