Guest guest Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Hi Bettie, I'm also a bit confused... I didn't really recommend salt, because my experiences with salt were mixed... I've used 2 different salts for 2 different purposes: -Salt " Meine Base " (P. Jentschura) in my bath to detox: It was on the packaging how much I should use, 2-3 spoons for a bathtub. But this may depend on the product, don't know. Today strongly advised another foot spa... /message/16674 -Himalaya salt: I use(d) this as a food additive or mineral supplement. (by the way I'm not so sure if it this is a good thing in the long run, you may take too much of some minerals, so it becomes toxic...) . > > > Came across this in a shop today and have bought some after stephen's > > recommendations.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 I use the same amount as I do regular sea salt, Ada. But you can usually tell by how long it takes to dissolve in the water. If it dissolves quickly, you can add more; if it doesn't dissolve you need less.  D From: betty_starbuckle <betty_starbuckle@...> Subject: dead sea salt.

My question, before I try it, is how strong is it compared to using normal sea salt? Do I need to use more or less than normal . I usally use 1/3 a cup in a bath.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 I use it for detoxing, Marc, re salt in bath. It is a similar concept to ' foot bath. When you can't detox well thru your kidneys, liver, etc, you can still detox thru your skin.  D From: Marc <marc@...> Subject: Re: dead sea salt.

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Thanks Evie. I find sea salt is a really nice detox compared to epsom salts which appear to be a little too strong for me. Looking forward to see how the dead sea salt goes.
