biochemical processes in plants.

Soil pH Adjustment: It can be used to lower the pH of alkaline soils, making them more suitable for acid-loving plants.

Foliar Spray: It can be applied as a foliar spray to provide a quick source of magnesium and sulfur to plants.

Laxative for Animals: In veterinary medicine, it is sometimes used as a laxative for livestock suffering from constipation or bloat.

Epsom Salt Baths: Epsom salt baths are used for therapeutic purposes in horses and other large animals to relieve muscle soreness and inflammation.

  1. Pharmaceuticals:

Magnesium sulfate is used in medical and pharmaceutical applications, including as a component in various medications and intravenous solutions.

  1. Industrial and Other Applications:

Bath Salts and Personal Care: Epsom salt is commonly used in bath salts and personal care products due to its reputed muscle-relaxing and stress-reducing properties.

Magnesium Production: In some industrial processes, magnesium sulfate is used to produce magnesium metal.

Fireworks: It can be used in pyrotechnics and fireworks to produce white sparks.
