NOTE: table salt is not good for you because it’s stripped of all nutrients and bleached. As we said, Himalayan Rock Salt is loaded with minerals and nutrients that are good for you.
5 Things Sole Does for Your Body
- Hydration
Can I ask you something – did you know that you can actually drink too much water?! The answer is YES your body becomes ‘dilute.’ Dilute means you’re kicking out all of the things that make your cells run. You boot out electrolytes and minerals, flushing them out too quickly. Salt slows down the water reabsorption process (which is why too much salt water can severely dehydrate you).
- Digestion
Himalayan pink salt will super-charge your salivary glands into high gear, producing a protein called amylase, which is what starts your digestion by breaking down your food earlier so more can be absorbed. It also boosts your tummy acid, meaning those hard to get vitamins and minerals are broken down more easily. Plus, all those nutrients in your salt are really going to help out.
- Skin
You probably already know that our skin is the first indicator something is wrong in our body, right? Well, it turns out that Sole can fill a lot of these needs.
- Acne? The chromium in natural salt should fix that. Chromium should also reduce chances of infection.
- Eczema, dry scalp, or rough, uneven skin? You might be missing out on sulfur.
- Sick all the time? You might be zinc deficient, which is common in the US and sea salt is going to boost your immune system.
- Sleep
Salt minimizes the stress hormones your body produces (cortisol and adrenaline), so if you suffer from severe nighttime anxiety, this should help out. Salt will boost your serotonin levels, which makes you happy, creating an easier sleep.
- Alkalinity
Himalayan pink salt also promotes stronger bones, more energy, provides an immune system boost, lowers incidences of painful arthritis inflammation, and reduction of Candida yeast overgrowth.
How to Make Sole?!
You’ll need the following ingredients:
- Mason jar
- Himalayan pink salt
- Filtered water
Follow the simple instructions:
- First, you need to fill a quart-size Mason jar one-third full with unrefined, natural salt (Celtic Grey or Pink Himalayan)
- Then, you need to fill the jar with filtered water, leaving two inches at the top and cover with a plastic top.
- Shake and let it sit for 24 hours.
- Check in 24 hours to see if all salt crystals are dissolved, and add a little more salt.
- When the salt no longer dissolves, the Sole is ready.
How to use it:
It’s very simple – just add half a teaspoon of Sole to an 8oz glass of water for one glass every morning.
