Guest guest Posted November 27, 2010 Report Share Posted November 27, 2010 Hi Bee, I noticed over the last few weeks that I look 'puffy'. The last couple of days I haven't had my salt dosage and I have noticed I look less like a blow fish. Is it okay to cut out some salt? (the obvious answer is 'of course' , but you may have a different answer. : ) ) Thank you! Debbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if you've ever had puffiness before your body will retrace it while it is healing itself. So please don't stop having the salt, since it helps your body balance out water, and it is important for every single function in the body. Whenever you get a symptom or reaction always think first that the body is doing what it needs to do in order to heal itself. You cannot avoid all healing and detoxifying reactions since that is how the body heals itself. As I always write on this group: " All dis-ease processes are exactly the same as healing and detoxifying processes created by the body itself in an effort to maintain its health, in spite of poor nutrition, toxins, etc. The only difference for people on this healthy program is they are now progressing towards health rather than becoming more and more unhealthy, or dis-eased, because they are giving their body what it needs to " be healthy " according to Nature's Laws on Health. The medical field labels each and every " sign " of poor health as separate dis-eases, illnesses, symptoms, etc. However all of them are simply " signs " the body is working hard at maintaining its health, so all of those " signs " are actually normal body reactions. The best in health, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That book is not about good ocean sea salt that I recommend, which is exactly like your tears. So, no ocean sea salt does not interfere with burning of fat, otherwise I wouldn't be so slim, and people on this program wouldn't be changing over from running on carbs/sugars to running on fats.
