What is Epsom Salt?
Epsom Salt is the common name for Magnesium Sulfate, a naturally occurring mineral compound of magnesium and sulfate. Named after the town of Epsom in England where it was first discovered in natural springs, Epsom Salt has been a household essential for generations. Unlike table salt (sodium chloride), Epsom Salt is rich in magnesium—an essential mineral that many people are deficient in.
