Do epson salt baths really detox the body? What is the deal with coffee baths t!
Question:
I hear stuff about it, but never tried it, but if it works, shoot I"m game.
Answers:
Yes, Epsom salt baths can help detox the body. The salts support and enhance the bodies’ immune response by stimulating lymph and blood circulation. The key ingredient is magnesium, which regulates a couple hundred enzymatic responses in the body.
Also, according to the Epsom Salt Council:
"Epsom Salt also delivers sulfates, which medical research indicates are needed for the formation of brain tissue, joint proteins and the mucin proteins that line the walls of the digestive tract. Studies show that sulfates also stimulate the pancreas to generate digestive enzymes and help to detoxify the body's residue of medicines and environmental contaminants. Studies indicate that sulfates are difficult to absorb from food, but are readily absorbed through the skin."
I use a footbath of hot water, epsom salts, and herbs/spices every time I feel a cold coming on, with great results.
I would not take a coffee bath unless you're willing to deal with side effects -- that much caffeine absorbed through the skin would be a lot for the body to deal with.
