Overview
Magnesium sulfate (or magnesium sulphate) is an inorganic salt (chemical compound) containing magnesium, sulfur and oxygen, with the formula MgSO4. It is often encountered as the heptahydrate sulfate mineral epsomite (MgSO4·7H2O), commonly called Epsom salt, taking its name from a bitter saline spring in Epsom in Surrey, England, where the salt was produced from the springs that arise where the porous chalk of the North Downs meets non-porous London clay. The monohydrate, MgSO4·H2O is found as the mineral kieserite. The overall global annual usage in the mid 1970s of the monohydrate was 2.3 million tons, of which the majority as used in agriculture.[1]

Mechanism of Action
Magensium has a role factor in more than 300 enzymatic reactions. It is involved in many processes as hormone receptor binding, gating of calcium channels, transmembrane ion flux and regulation of adenylate cyclase. It has role in muscle contraction, vasomotor tone, cardiac excitability and neural activity.[3]
