Sea Salt Flush
The sea salt flush is commonly used during fasting in Ayurvedic medicine to flush out toxins from the body. Natural health practitioners commonly recommend it to help facilitate any sort of detox such as the Master Cleanse. The sea salt acts as a laxative in removing waste from the digestive tract. It is used in place of commercial medications. It is called a flush because your bowels will start flushing out watery stools.
The sea salt flush simply uses natural sea salt and warm water. Use 2 teaspoons of sea salt with 2 quarts of warm water and drink. You don’t have to drink it fast. It is best to take this drink early in the morning or late in the evening. Make sure you will be able to be near a bathroom for about an hour or two. It also helps to hold your nose as you are drinking it -for some reason it makes it easier to go down! You can also add some lemon to make it taste better. Within an hour you will need to go to the bathroom. You may want to bring a good book to read – chances are you’ll be there for awhile. Most people do the flush for 3-7 days depending on what their doctor or health practitioner recommends. While you are doing this cleanse eat a healthy lite diet. Avoid alcohol, fried and spicy foods and sugar.

Regular table salt is not recommended. Sea salt is super rich in minerals and will provide you with electrolytes your body needs as it is flushing out the impurities from your body. Not everyone should do the sea salt flush though. People who have ulcers, cancer and other serious illness should always check with their doctor first.
The benefits of this flush will be apparent in about 2-3 days. Increased energy, a greater sense of well being, a brighter complexion, fresher breath and decreased body odor, and respiratory and sinus functions improve. The sea slat flush bring the body into balance and may help shed some unwanted pound too!
