), salt is loaded with life giving micronutrients. Every cell in our body needs this kind of salt. Our bodies rely on these micronutrients for healthy bone density, stabilized blood sugar levels, proper blood circulation, and thousands of other small but exceedingly significant ways in the body.
worthy kind) is the stuff health nightmares 
are made of. If you’ve never given much thought to the type of salt you may be eating in processed or fast foods (or perhaps even lurking…. as a clue… in your cabinet), consider the story of modern salt:
at 1200 degrees Fahrenheit. As it’s cooked, it loses the other micronutrients it “might “ have contained. Anti-caking agents, fluoride, a less healthy form of iodide, aluminum derivatives, and other ingredients are added to keep the salt shaking freely. Salt in the “real world” is not white, and table salt is bleached to get its pristine color. It may come as no surprise that crude oil extraction is one way “modern” salt is produced.
, the man made version wreaks havoc on the body
. Diabetes, gout, and cardiovascular diseases are all aggravated by modern salt. It is also surreptitiously hard on the nervous and lymph systems, and will aggravate edema, lymphatic disorders, anxiety, and depression tendencies.
Comes from deep underground and is sent thru a fiery furnaceIt is a poor imitation of that which is goodIt’s highly addictiveIt wreaks havoc quietly on a previously healthy body, and generally makes an unhealthy body sick
Aids in hydration of the body,Improves digestion (and helps remove sediments in the body which can build up over time leading to kidney or gallstones)Helps regulate blood sugarSupports healthy blood pressureHelps the body detoxHelps re-energize the body at a cellular levelAssists in balancing the body’s pHOne theory of why osteoporosis develops is that the body begins stripping bones of their mineral and calcium content in an effort to neutralize acidic blood. Healthy natural sourced salt is alkalizing by nature, which will eliminate the need of the bones to “give to the greater good (blood). The body is able to survive longer with poor bones than with “poor” blood.Enhances communication between nerve cells.Healthy natural salt also helps thin mucous and phlegm (yes, even when ingested!). Think about what a nasal saline rinse does as a physical example of this.Getting adequate natural salt improves complexion, hair and nail growth over time, and also may improve the appearance of varicose veins.
When adequate cortisol levels drop, aldosterone drops too. When aldosterone drops, there is a tendency towards electrolyte imbalance, causing the salt cravings. Hydrating without adding in electrolytes has the potential to aggravate the electrolyte imbalance by further diluting existing electrolytes within the body.
Add salt to the jar, and then fill the jar with filtered water.
Put the lid (preferably plastic) on the jar, shake gently, and then leave overnight.
If the salt is completely dissolved in the morning, add more salt and leave it overnight again.
The mixture will be ready when there is salt sediment in the bottom of the jar. The filtered water is now completely saturated and cannot receive any more salt.
Add 1 teaspoon of this mixture to a glass of water and drink it each morning when you wake up (30-60 minutes before taking medication)
If you appear to have a detox reaction (such as a headache), start with ¼ teaspoonful and work your way up.
Do not use metal utensils to measure your product, as it can interfere with the solution.
and the pea
? You may recall that the true princess felt the effects of a pea beneath twenty mattresses and had a terrible night’s sleep because of it. After all we’ve discussed, you well understand that the thyroid
is the discerning princess in the body……it feels everything!
As I hinted above, the gang is quite diverse. Nearly ⅓ of this gang of thieves bears a similar “tattoo”…….. They contain fluoride within their chemical structure. You’ll recall (hopefully!) that fluoride (and chlorine, another “tattoo” found in many medications) blocks iodine from its job helping the thyroid produce thyroid hormones. These small doses add up over time with chronic use medications.
Lipitor, Crestor, Vytorin, Zetia (cholesterol meds) Prevacid (stomach acid / GERD) Betamethasone, Clobetasol, Dexamethasone, Fluocinolone, Fluticasone (topical, oral or inhaled steroids)Celebrex, Ibuprofen, Naproxen (NSAID pain) Lexapro, Prozac, Celexa, Paxil, Zoloft (mood stabilizers) Haldol, Risperdal, Lithium (mood stabilizers) Levaquin, Cipro (antibiotics) Synthetic hormone replacement therapies, birth control pills Amiodarone (treats ventricular heart arrhythmia)Fluconazole (antifungal) Interferon Alfa, Sutent, Sorafenib (chemotherapy agents) Pramipexole, Ropinirole (for Parkinson’s) Metformin (Type II Diabetes) Furosemide (diuretic) Phenytoin and Carbamazepine (for seizures) Excessive Niacin (Vit B3) intake in the process), here’s an added bonus: Annually, direct health care costs average $6032 out of pocket
for an individual with one chronic disease (that number goes up with each additional disorder). Indirectly, chronic disorders also have a profound impact on education, occupation opportunities, income, and social interaction. If your health professional has not offered up these five recommendations as part of protocols for any chronic disorder you may have, they are working as a dis-ease maintenance advocate instead of that as a healer. Ultimately though, it’s our personal responsibility to be our own advocates and in doing so, choosing whether to live in a space of dis-ease maintenance or healing. Care for that thyroid “princess” within your personal kingdom friends! It’s often the first organ in the body to recognize that something is amiss.
