CAUSED INCREASED HEART RATE AND SEVERE NAUSEA
Instructions said to use the whole bag for body soak and to stay in for 30 minutes. 10 minutes in I started to experience nausea and felt very weak. When I stood up I felt like fainting and my heart rate had started to increase. I rushed out of the shower because I did not want to risk fainting in the shower and hurt myself. As soon as I got to my bed I almost completely blacked out and I had to focus on calming my heart rate. When I googled "Magnesium making me feel sick" I read about how too much magnesium intake can be toxic for the body, and it had listed all of the symptoms I was experiencing. Too much magnesium build up in the body can cause nausea, increased heart rate, confusion, slurred speech, and can even lead to death. Luckily after resting for about an hour I started to feel back to normal, but I feel they should be more CLEAR and SPECIFIC with their instructions. I am a small 110 lb woman and feel I should have not used the whole bag for my weight. Had they have been more specific with certain recommended dosages for different weights, instead of just saying use the whole bag, this could have been prevented. I did not know about magnesium turning toxic in large doses and I am very glad I listened to my body and didn't stay in the tub longer. FIX YOUR INSTRUCTIONS! Not everyone is educated with the effects of too much magnesium.
