Do you know……..Epsom Salt, that we use so lavishly as a natural remedy for number of ailments, to name a few; Muscle Cramps, Sprains, Fatigue, Skin problems, Athlete’s Foot, Toenail Fungus, Toxin Elimination, or General Aches, is not a salt. It’s a naturally occurring pure mineral compound of magnesium and sulfate. Epsom Salt, takes its name from a bitter saline spring in Epsom in Surrey, England, where the salt was produced from the spring.

Epsom salt helps to alleviate stress as stress drains the body of magnesium and increases levels of adrenaline. When we take bath of Epsom Salt, salt is absorbed in through the skin and replenishes the level of magnesium in the body which helps to produce serotonin, a mood-elevating chemical within the brain that creates a feeling of calmness and relaxation. Also, used for Arthritis pain and swelling, Sprains, Swollen and tired feet, Sunburn pain and redness, Sore muscles after workout.

Epsom Salt (Magnesium Sulfate) also helps in gardening with seeds germination, makes plants grow bushier, produce more flowers, increases chlorophyll production.  Can add 2 tablespoons of Epsom salt to a gallon of water and sprinkle on lawn to keep the grass healthy and green.

Epsom salt is for external use only. There are no clinical studies done proving the safety and benefits of oral consumption of Epsom salt. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have not approved Epsom salt, so there are no official guidelines regarding the proper dosage or how to consume it. It is not good for people with severe skin infection and inflammation, or have kidney disease, or people who are pregnant. People use Epsom salts baths as a home treatment for plenty of minor ailments, but there aren’t sufficient studies to back them up. Taking this type of bath probably won’t hurt you, but if you have health concerns, always check with your doctor first.
