What is epsom salt?

Answer:
Epsom salt is a salt used for medicinal bathing.

Its chemical name is Magnesium Sulfate.

Epsom salt is used primarily in bath salts, with flotation therapy being the primary use. It is anhydrous in nature, readily absorbing any moisture from the air.

Epsom salt is found commonly in nature and is capable of absorbing sound and converting it to heat. Lower frequencies are not as affected by the salt.

Magnesium Sulfate is commonly used in gardening to restore magnesium-deprived soil. It is used more often than lime because of its high solubility.
