Drinking a cup of salty boiled water in the morning can play the role of harmonizing zang-fu organs, promoting digestion and guiding stagnation, which is especially suitable for constipation patients caused by internal fire, and is helpful for clearing the intestines and relaxing bowels.

Soaking feet: Soaking feet with salt water before going to bed can stimulate the lower acupoints, radiate to the gastrointestinal tract, promote digestion and prevent constipation.

keep balance

There are a lot of ions in body fluids, and a lot of ions and water are lost in the body after sweating. If you drink boiled water directly, the osmotic pressure in the body will be too low, causing diarrhea, and salty boiled water has the greatest affinity for cells, which can quickly enter dehydrated cells and replenish water and salt at the same time, which can speed up recovery and slow down fatigue after exercise.

Sterilization and anti-inflammatory

Both sodium ions and chloride ions in brine can enhance osmotic pressure and inactivate fungi. Therefore, salt water is usually used to clean wounds, gargle and soak feet, which can effectively kill surface fungi and relieve inflammation. It has good curative effect on oral ulcer, sore throat, traumatic infection and fungal beriberi.

Clean and beautify the skin.

Many women have the habit of washing their faces, soaking their feet and taking a bath with salt water. Salt water cleaning can well remove the accumulated oil, acne, "blackheads", horniness and dirt on the skin surface, and also soften and remove hard skin such as dead skin and horniness.

Detumescence and detoxification

Because of its high osmotic pressure, high-concentration salty boiled water has a good detumescence effect on the swelling and pain caused by the bites of poisonous insects such as wasps, scorpions and centipedes. Soaking in water with high concentration of salt at the bitten position can suck out some toxins, slow down the spread of toxins, and also reduce swelling and relieve pain.

Improving eyesight and diminishing inflammation

Many people have blurred vision, which is caused by trachoma or conjunctivitis. Washing eyes with salty water every morning can improve eyesight and treat inflammation.
