One BOMB Bath - Full Spectrum Minerals, Dead Sea Salts, and Co2 Bath
Warm salt-water soaking has trial evidence: a 2025 randomized study found three 20-minute salt baths a week left participants more comfortable and less fatigued than no soak. Add CO2, which a 2021 study associated with warmer skin afterward.
For anyone who wants a long, unhurried soak once or twice a month. Standard or High-Mag, in packs of 1, 3, or 5 single-bath blends.
- Dead Sea Salts
- Zechstein Magnesium (High-Mag)
- Lab Tested
- Single-Use Blend
- No Fragrance
- No Dyes
- No Foaming Agents
Why people use it
- A long warm soak, done properly. In a 2025 randomized controlled trial, 20-minute warm salt-water soaks three times a week for six weeks left participants reporting more physical comfort and less fatigue than no soak at all. Warm salt water is an old practice with some real trial evidence behind it.
- The fizz is real chemistry. The two small packets are sodium bicarbonate and citric acid. In water they react and release carbon dioxide. In a 2021 thermography study, bathing in CO2-enriched water was associated with warmer skin during and after the soak.
- Zechstein magnesium in the High-Mag. Genuine magnesium chloride flakes from the Zechstein seabed, on top of the shared mineral base. More magnesium salt in the water, for a more concentrated soak.
- Nothing added for looks. No fragrance, no dye, no foaming agent. Minerals, salts, and the two fizz packets.
- Straight talk about what a bath is. Research on how much magnesium gets through skin is still catching up. People use a mineral soak for how it feels, and we count capsules as the reliable magnesium number. See the FAQ below.
What's in the bag
Six materials, all lab tested. Zechstein magnesium chloride flakes appear in the High-Mag blend only.
| Ingredient | Why it's in the tub |
|---|---|
| Full spectrum ocean minerals | The trace-mineral base of the blend, evaporated from sea water rather than refined down to sodium chloride. |
| Dead Sea salts | The classic mineral bathing salt, high in magnesium and potassium chlorides relative to ordinary sea salt. |
| Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) | The traditional bath salt. It dissolves fast and is what most people already associate with a soak. |
| Genuine Zechstein magnesium chloride flakes | High-Mag blend only. Magnesium chloride from the Zechstein seabed, added on top of the base for a more concentrated bath. |
| USP grade sodium bicarbonate | Half of the fizz. Softens the feel of the water too. |
| Citric acid (from citrus) | The other half of the fizz. It reacts with the bicarbonate in water and releases CO2. |
For external use only. Nothing here is a dietary amount. On how much magnesium crosses skin, see Grober et al., Nutrients, 2017 and the FAQ below.
How to use
- Run the tub to about 90-95F. Cooler than you'd normally run a bath, which is what makes a 30 to 45 minute soak comfortable instead of exhausting.
- As the water runs, add the entire large bag of minerals. Stir to distribute.
- Once the tub is full, drop in both small packets. That's when it starts to fizz, which is why they go in last.
- Soak 30 to 45 minutes. That's the whole point of this one.
- You can split the bag across two baths, but the full amount is the concentrated version.
- Never add soap. Get out slowly; mineral salts make a tub slick.
Sourcing & making
Six lab-tested materials, measured into one single-use blend so there's nothing to scoop or guess at. The magnesium chloride in the High-Mag version is genuine Zechstein, from the ancient seabed deposit under northern Europe, not a generic magnesium chloride. Sodium bicarbonate is USP grade and the citric acid comes from citrus. Nothing is fragranced, colored, or foamed.
Full ingredients
- Lab-Tested Full Spectrum Ocean Minerals
- Lab-Tested Dead Sea Salts
- Lab-Tested Epsom Salts (Magnesium Sulfate)
- Genuine Zechstein Magnesium Chloride Flakes (High-Mag Bath only)
- USP Grade Sodium Bicarbonate
- Lab-Tested Citric Acid (from Citrus)
Who it's for — and who it isn't
Good fit for:
- Anyone who wants one properly loaded mineral bath a couple of times a month rather than a weak one every week
- People already on an oral magnesium routine who want the bathing ritual alongside it
- Anyone tired of bath products that are mostly fragrance, dye, and foam
Probably not for you if:
- You have broken skin, open cuts, or abrasions. Citric acid stings, and the fizzing water will find them.
- You're buying it to raise your magnesium levels. Use capsules for that; see the FAQ.
- You want a weekly bath. This one is built for 1 to 4 times a month unless a professional directs otherwise.
Testing & quality
Every product is lab tested. Certificates of analysis on request, about a 2-week turnaround. Every mineral and salt in the blend is tested for purity and contaminants before it's packed.

Mineral salt bath (rock/sea salt in warm water)
Warm saltwater bath trial, 2025
BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies · 2025 · RCT · n=54
In a three-arm randomized controlled trial, 54 adults with rheumatoid arthritis took 20-minute 41°C hand and foot baths three times weekly for six weeks; both warm-water and warm-saltwater baths reduced pain and fatigue versus control, with saltwater producing the largest pain reduction and improved functional capacity.
CO₂-generating bath blend (sodium bicarbonate + citric acid)
CO2 water bathing thermography study, 2021
International Journal of Vascular Medicine · 2021 · non-randomized before-after study · n=47
In a before-and-after clinical measurement study of 47 patients, a 10-minute 42°C bath in CO₂-enriched water (1000 ppm) raised mean finger temperature from 30.8°C to 35.3°C and reduced temperature disparity between fingers for at least 30 minutes.
Magnesium chloride / magnesium sulfate (Epsom, Zechstein flakes)
Myth or Reality—Transdermal Magnesium?
Nutrients · 2017 · mechanistic review
A review of the transdermal magnesium literature describing the stratum corneum as the limiting barrier, with follicles and sweat glands covering 0.1-1% of skin surface, and calling for larger and better-controlled bath and oil studies to quantify how much magnesium is taken up.
Evidence note: Moderate: warm mineral baths have randomized human evidence for comfort and fatigue, and CO2-enriched water has measured circulatory-warmth effects. How much magnesium crosses intact skin is still an open question, and the best available review calls for larger studies.
FAQ
How much magnesium gets through skin?
Research is still catching up. One pilot trial saw serum magnesium rise, and a 2017 review in Nutrients called for bigger studies. People use it for how it feels, and we count capsules as the reliable number.
Standard or High-Mag?
Same base: ocean minerals, Dead Sea salts, Epsom salts, and the two fizz packets. High-Mag adds genuine Zechstein magnesium chloride flakes on top, so the water carries more magnesium salt. Both give the same fizzing 30-45 minute soak.
Why does it fizz?
Sodium bicarbonate and citric acid react in water and release carbon dioxide. That's the whole trick, and it's why the two small packets go in after the tub is full rather than while it's running.
Why only 90-95F?
Because a cooler bath is one you can actually stay in for 30 to 45 minutes without getting lightheaded when you stand up. The long soak is what the trial evidence is built on, and temperature is what makes the long soak possible.
How often can I use it?
1 to 4 times a month unless a professional tells you otherwise. It's an occasional recharge, not a nightly routine, and one bag is one bath.
Pairs well with
- Magnesium Bis-Glycinate — the evening magnesium that actually counts toward your intake
- Mag Glow Tallow Magnesium Lotion — the same Zechstein magnesium, in a lotion for the nights you skip the tub
- Salt of Life — the mineral salt for the kitchen instead of the tub
Cautions
- For external use only. Do not swallow any part of this blend. Keep the packets away from children and pets.
- Store cool and dry. Best used all at once after opening.
Lab Tested
