Do you know what I noticed? Of all the personal care products, for some reason, there are few interesting materials about bath salts. And the thing is working and proven over the years!
The first time I felt the benefits of bath salts was when I started going to the gym. A classic of the genre: the first day I was actively engaged to failure, I felt well, but the next day my legs were stone, and all my muscles ached. Taking a bath with salt really helped to relieve pain.
I got an interest in bath salts when my husband gave me a birthday ticket to the beach complex this summer, where in addition to spa treatments and several types of saunas, there were three huge Jacuzzis with Baltic, Red and Mediterranean water seas. It turned out to be a hot day on my holiday, and I left the complex as if reborn. The skin was so moisturized that I had not seen such an effect even in professional creams. The energy was off scale, the mood was excellent, I don’t remember for a long time that I was so rested.
And it would seem that the point is in the beach complex itself and my festive mood. But no! When I started taking baths with special salts, I got the same pleasure as on my birthday. And the skin was also well hydrated, despite the heating season.
I plunged headlong into the topic of bath salts, what they have proven effects on the skin and overall well-being. I learned a lot of new and interesting things. Everything will not fit into one article, and so the material turned out to be great for me. And there will be less than 1% of what you want to be told here :-)
Fact number 1. Dead sea salt improves the protective properties of the skin and enhances its hydration in case of atopic dermatitis
In 2005 in the International Journal of Dermatology (International Journal of Dermatology) published a report on a clinical study of the effects of Dead Sea water on the skin. It is rich in magnesium salts, which are beneficial for inflammatory diseases.
The effectiveness of the Dead Sea water was tested as follows: for 1-6 weeks, the participants in the experiment (predominantly with atopic dermatitis) one hand was immersed in a bath with a 5% solution of Dead Sea salt for 15 minutes, the other hand - in a bath with ordinary tap water.
Outcome: Dead Sea salt water improved skin barrier functions, transepidermal water loss (high rates are characteristic of atopic dermatitis) has been reduced. Simply put, the hand that the participants in the experiment dipped into the bath of salt solution was better hydrated and retained moisture longer.
I believe that this information will be useful even for young mothers, because atopic dermatitis is often found in children. Professionally engaged in bath salts in Russia Epsom.pro. They have a cool mix of salts and flowers SEA RELAX. There, it is just in the composition of the Dead Sea salt and anchan flowers, which color the water in an azure color. The aroma in the bathroom is such that you don't want to leave. Organizing a whole spa in my humble bathroom.

Fact number 2. Bath salts serve as a conduit for magnesium in our body
A very interesting fact, to which I will later devote an article separately. Only those who have never turned on the TV and did not go to the Internet know about the benefits of magnesium.
Magnesium is essential for the body. Its deficiency causes depression, we are overwhelmed. Remember how you feel after a corporate party: the head may not hurt, but a false sense of shame appears, the mood changes several times in an hour and we are depressed. This is because alcohol lowers magnesium levels in our body.
Magnesium is involved in contracting and relaxing our muscles, regulating the nervous system, and helping convert food into energy.
There is great scientific review that magnesium can enter the lymphatic system through the skin. And if suddenly you do not want to consult with doctors about how much you need to consume magnesium, there are no funds for tests and diagnostics - the safest way is to just take a bath with Epsom salts (Epsom salt).
It contains 99% magnesium sulfate, which really relieves fatigue and pain in muscles and joints. And you don't have to worry about an excess of magnesium in the blood: the skin will not take more magnesium than it should.
Fact number 3. Bath salts can help treat psoriasis
Psoriasis is one of the chronic skin diseases, where the cause of its formation has not been found. Nothing hurts a person, but he is very complex about this, hence the constant stress and, in general, a negative impact on the overall emotional state.
There is one study The School of Persian Medicine of the Tehran University of Medical Sciences and Health Services, which states that mineral waters can be used in the treatment of psoriasis. You cannot completely get rid of this ailment, but you can significantly reduce the proliferation of skin cells: that is, reduce their active production so that there are no white plaques from dead skin particles. Just about white plaques, people with psoriasis are more complex than with eczema of a reddish hue.
If you are far from the mineral waters of Persia and do not have big finances for the trip, then you can arrange a mineral bath with pink himalayan salt. In addition to the relaxing and calming effect, it will saturate the skin cells with microelements and, to some extent, have a beneficial effect on the sites of psoriasis lesions. Naturally, no one promises a full recovery, but Himalayan bath salt certainly won't make your skin worse.
Or you can use it in cooking. Kilogram of salt from Epsom.pro comes out cheaper than buying in supermarkets. Even cheaper - with my promo code 40relax.
