Magnesium Sulfate has been used for centuries as a natural remedy to promote healing, relaxation, and draw out impurities. Epsom salts can be used internally and externally to treat a variety of ailments, including over exertion, sprains and general aches and pains, as well as for detoxification, sore feet and ingrown nails, fungus and migraines.
Magnesium
Magnesium and magnesium sulfates can be found in many minerals. Magnesium is very relaxing for the body. A deficiency of magnesium levels can lead to problems with sleeping, behavior, aches, and general feeling of being tired. Sulfate is another component of Epsom salt. This is a common deficiency in children with autism spectrum disorders.
Epsom salt has FDA approval and is widely considered to be one of the most safest laxatives. It works by increasing the water content within the intestines and intestinal bowels, which encourages bowel movement. This is not a permanent solution.
Constipation
Constipation can be caused by poor eating habits, medications, and lifestyle. This can be reversed over time. Learn about optimal digestion and healthy eating habits. You can increase water intake, eat more fruits and vegetables, and avoid going to bed with a full stomach. Always read the label before trying any new product. Make sure to check for warnings, contraindications, directions and additives.
Mix 2 Tablespoons Epsom Salts with 8 ounces of filtered, room-temperature water. Stir. Allow salts to dissolve for at least one minute. To buffer the taste and increase effectiveness, add 2 Tablespoons lemon juice (detoxifier). * Stir. * Don’t eat or drink anything until you have had a bowel movement. Adults will want results within two hours of taking the medication on an empty stomach. If you do not see any results within four to six hours, adjust the dosage according to the label directions.
