How do Epsom salt baths improve health?
I put soaking to the test and found it to improve my sore aching muscles, relieve my headaches and it gave me a calming affect for a good nights rest. I have been battling Fibromyalgia along with digestive and bloating issues for months now. When I read the information below, I had to add soaking to my weekly health regime. Just as proper nutrition and exercise are for maintaining health, so is proper sleep and ample relaxation. Stress can lead to many health issues if it ignored.
Soaking 3 times per week for 12-20 minutes per day can greatly:
•Improve heart and circulatory health, reducing irregular heartbeats, preventing hardening of the arteries, reducing blood clots and lowering blood pressure.
•Improve ability for the body to use insulin, reducing the incidence or severity of diabetes.
•Flushes toxins and heavy metals from the cells, easing muscle pain and helping the body to eliminate harmful substances.
•Improve nerve function by electrolyte regulation. Also, calcium is the main conductor for electrical current in the body, and magnesium is necessary to maintain proper calcium levels in the blood.
•Relieve stress. Excess adrenaline and stress are believed to drain magnesium, a natural stress reliever, from the body. Magnesium is necessary for the body to bind adequate amounts of serotonin, a mood-elevating chemical within the brain that creates a feeling of well being and relaxation.
•Reduce inflammation to relieve pain and muscle cramps and yes bloating!
•Improve oxygen use.
•Improve absorption of nutrients.
•Prevent or ease migraine headaches.
So soak your cares away!
