Epsom salt is is nature's diverse product. You may soak in it, exfoliate your body and cleanse yourself internally as well. Todays tip will focus on cleanse your body internally. Did you know that the average person has 7-10 meals in their body at one time? Think about everything you ate over the last 2 days-hmmmm? The real truth is that over time you may not be eliminating all those meals and therefore, your body is being zapped of essential nutrients and being burdened with bacteria, parasites, toxins and more that are remaining in your colon. In my research, a woman confessed she cleansed with Epsom salt and eliminated popcorn kernels. She had not eaten popcorn for over 10 years!!! If you do not cleanse your colon properly, you will feel sluggish and bloated. The blood capillaries to the colon begin to pick up the toxins, poisons and noxious debris as it seeps through the bowel wall. All tissues and organs of the body take on toxic substances. Cleansing will increase your metabolism, boost your energy, and help your internal system function properly. Keep in mind, if you have never cleansed, you will have to repeat several times in order to be "fully cleansed". There should be at least at 3 weeks break between cleanses.
"up to 90% of diseases are due to improper functioning of the colon.... Of the 22,000 operations that I have personally performed, I have never found a single normal colon." - Dr. John Harvey Kellogg
The benefits to a colon cleanse are endless, however the major benefits are amazing. My stomach is flat! I had bloat my entire life even in picture when I was 12 or 19 years old and weighed 95 pounds. Proof positive you can feel and see my belly anytime! Your skin will have a cleansed "glow". Holistically speaking, I can look at someone and deduce that they need a cleanse as their complexion is ashy pale, dry, their eyes are yellowed, and their hair has a brittle appearance. After a cleanse, your body comes alive through your skin, your eyes are bright, and your hair may change to silk. Are you ready?
I intend to write a "manifesto" on cleansing in the future based on personal experiences as well as interviews stay tuned and keep informed. People tend to focus on their external being and ignore the way their internal organs are aging. In 2007, I had an ultrasound of my internal organs and they used the images to show students what the "healthy" body of a woman over 40 should look like. Let's keep you on the right path as well.
Here is a way to use Epsom salt that has worked for me. A caveat-everyone is different and you should be medically approved before trying a new method. I am passing a tradition from my grandmother who did this for ages and not every remedy is going to work the same for each individual.
Instructions:
- Pour 8 oz. of WARM water into a glass. The directions on the box will tell you to dissolve the doses into half a glass of water, but 8 oz. is an amount that works.
-
For people 12 or older, measure 1 to 2 tsp. of Epsom salt into the glass. For those ages 6 to 12, use less (about1/2 to 1 tsp.).
-
Sqeeze the zest of lemon juice into the water to flavor the mixture Important to stir the mixture until the ingredients have completely dissolved.
Drink the entire class at one time-about 5 good swallows:) Please be in a safe place as your private moment may occur as fast as 30 minutes or up to 6 hours.- Enjoy 2 glasses of lemon flavored water after the cleanse!
