hey everyone i recently was looking at my bag of Epsom salt and wondered "i wonder what all i can use this for" so i did a little research. Now without any hesitation i present you with 8 amazing ways to use Epsom salt!
1. Improve Overall Health
Researchers say that soaking in an Epsom salt bath and absorbing the
minerals through the skin is one of the easiest ways to increase the
body's levels of both magnesium and sulfate. Use 2 cups of Epsom salt
per bath, soak 3 times weekly for at least 12 minutes.
2. Treat Body Aches
Sulfate is important for joint and tissue function. Increasing the
body's level can lessen discomfort from sports injuries, arthritis,
sprains, strains, the flu and other aches. Use 2 cups of Epsom salt per
bath, soak 3 times weekly for at least 12 minutes.
3. Fade Bruises
To lessen the appearance of bruises, make a compress by soaking a
washcloth in cold water mixed with Epsom salt – use two tablespoons per
cup – then apply to the skin.
4. Remove Splinters
According to the Epsom Salt Council, Epsom salt increases osmotic
pressure on the skin, which draws foreign bodies (such as splinters) toward the surface.
Dissolve one cup of Epsom salt in a tub of water and soak the affected
area.
5. Natural Hair Volumizer
For big, bouncy hair, give it a volumizing mask by mixing one part hair
conditioner to one part Epsom salt and work the mixture through your
locks. Leave on for 20 minutes, rinse and style as usual.
6. Make a Face mask
Boost your the magnesium in your facial skin while also exfoliating and
deep-cleansing by mixing 1/2 teaspoon of Epsom salt with cleansing
cream. Massage on skin, rinse with cool water and dry.
7. Feed House Plants
House plants love the minerals in Epsom salt, feed them monthly by mixing in two tablespoons Epsom salt per gallon of water.
8. Grow Ginormous Pumpkins
The world's largest pumpkin, grown by pumpkin whisperer Ron Wallace,
weighed in at 2,009 pounds. Wallace's secret weapon? Epsom salts.
"People think that you use it for your feet but it's also a great form
of fertilizer," said Wallace.
