Description
A Himalayan salt flush is a natural, inexpensive detox method that involves drinking a mixture of warm water and unrefined pink Himalayan salt. This combination acts as a natural laxative, promoting bowel movements and helping flush out toxins from the digestive system.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 teaspoons pink Himalayan salt (unrefined, non-iodized)
- 1 liter (about 4 cups) of warm filtered water
- Optional: Juice of 1/2 lemon (for taste and additional cleansing benefits)
Instructions
- Warm the water slightly — it should be just above room temperature.
- Add the salt and stir until fully dissolved.
- Optionally, add lemon juice.
- Drink the entire mixture within 5 minutes on an empty stomach, ideally first thing in the morning.
- Lie on your side and gently massage your stomach to help move the saltwater through your intestines.
- Within 30 to 60 minutes, you should feel the urge to use the restroom.
Notes
- Stay near a bathroom. Effects can be strong and rapid. Expect multiple bowel movements within a few hours.
-
Due to the high sodium content, this flush is not suitable for those on a low-sodium diet or with hypertension.
