Sea salt contains healthy antioxidants, as well as substances such as potassium, iron and copper. Minerals can help the body to better regulate water and balance the pH in the body, thus reducing various adverse reactions in the body.
Sea salt also has antidepressant effect. Many natural therapists use sea salt to help promote and maintain patients' levels of chromamine, salanine and melatonin. Lithium is an ingredient used in many antidepressants, and sea salt can also be used instead of treating depression patients. Sea salt is also a natural hypnotic, which helps to promote sleep. Therefore, after drinking a glass of water, put some sea salt on your tongue and melt it slowly, which can help you sleep well.
Sea salt is also good for heart health. When the viscosity of blood in the body is too high, it will affect the normal blood circulation of the heart, and it can also provide a certain amount of plasma to the body to make the blood circulation better.
Extended information: introduction of crude salt:
1. Raw salt is the crystallization of seawater or brine after frying in salt wells, salt ponds and salt springs, that is, natural salt, which is unprocessed large-grain salt. Its main component is sodium chloride, but due to impurities such as magnesium chloride, it is easy to deliquesce in the air, so pay attention to humidity when storing.
2. Crude salt can stimulate and promote the secretion of sebaceous glands, help to expel aging substances from the body, remove the dead cortex on the surface, and regenerate the skin. Crude salt has the function of sweating, it can discharge waste and excess water in the body, promote skin metabolism, soften dirt and supplement salt and minerals; Used to clean wounds can prevent infection.
3. Sprinkling on food can keep fresh for a short time and can be used to preserve food and prevent deterioration. In addition to eating, salt can also be used as a preservative, using its strong permeability and bactericidal effect to preserve food. Salt is also widely used in industry and is an important industrial raw material. The general population can eat it, but patients with hypertension and children should not eat more.
4. Early hot sea salt was bought by sick people in the vegetable market to make pickles. This kind of sea salt can be fried for three times because of its low mineral content. The use time is about 1.5 days, and it takes about 1 10 kg a month. Disadvantages are high corrosiveness, low mineral content, easy abortion due to heavy metals such as fluorine, and relatively complicated operation. Zanthoxylum bungeanum, ginger and cinnamon need to be added to increase the absorption degree of meridians, and the added organic matter may cause the threat of secondary infection because it is perishable.
5. In order to prolong the service life of Taiwan Province bag salt field, after four years of long-term research, 1998 came out. Because it can be used for 10 to 15 days, I applied for a patent. This is the big blue salt sold in the drugstore, also called halite. Of course, there are many names. Drug stores are all 10 yuan a kilo. The disadvantage is that pepper is still needed to promote the absorption of meridians.
6. Sea salt works by treating meridians, so if the meridians are stagnant or blocked for a long time, the meridians will feel itchy and painful because of relaxation after the initial use of the drug. Girls' menstruation will also change temporarily because of the relaxation of meridians.
7. Hot compress can dispel liver qi quickly, but it is slow to dredge chong ren meridian, so there will be a situation that liver qi pushes out kidney qi through chong ren meridian, kidney qi cannot be hydrated, and menstruation is delayed for many days, while internal medicine can speed up the dredging of chong ren meridian, so there will be no delay. If you don't want to open internal medicine, you can reduce the hot compress time. Where the meridians are depressed, different meridian regions will appear on the skin surface. Kind of like a chessboard. After illness, the itching pain on the skin and the meridian area naturally subsided.
8. Gynecological inflammation is mostly caused by the accumulation of toxic fire in meridians, and frequent short-term defecation will occur when gynecological sea salt is used in the early stage. When treating the elderly, it is suggested that the initial hot compress time should not be too long, or once every 1 ~ 2 days. Because the channels and collaterals of the elderly are seriously blocked, the itching caused by dredging the channels and collaterals will be sensitive to the subcutaneous nerves of the elderly, so it is better to gradually dredge the channels and collaterals of the elderly, so there is no need to rush.
9. Because sea salt is an effective mineral for gasification, it can be repeatedly crystallized in the bag. At first, the bag will shrink quickly, but the total weight has not changed. When the big gap between salt particles is filled with newly crystallized sea salt, the volume of the whole bag will not shrink. Because it absorbs water easily, it can be put in a plastic bag in wet climate, and sea salt can be dried when it is wet.
