 There is a great Russian folk medicine: In case of food poisoning, drink vodka with salt. If you don't drink alcohol, drink a few glasses of well-salted water, and then try to vomit it out. (This is NOT an alternative to medical treatment!)

 

* In case of a cold, drink a bit of vodka with salt.

 

* If your blood pressure is down, quickly drink a very salty glass of lime water.

 

* A good way to increase the amount of stomach acids for digestion: 5-30 minutes after eating, put 1-2 grams of sea- or cooking-salt at the edge of your tongue. After the salt melts, swallow the salty saliva in your mouth. Such a small amount of salt won't harm you but will cause an extra release of stomach acids.

 

* Salt is a great disinfectant - If you clean wounds with salt water soaked materials, they won't become inflamed.

 

* Granulomas of the tooth will be gone after 2 weeks of being cleaned with salt water.

 For a tooth ache - Wash your mouth with salt water after every meal and before going to sleep.

 

* For pneumonia and strong coughing, place a wash cloth soaked in salt water on the back of the person, on the area of the infection.

 

* Adenomas can be treated by holding down a cotton wash cloth folded to four layers and soaked in salt water for 2 weeks.

 

* Salt helps in treating acne and boils. Place a little salt on a bandage and put it on the infected area for an hour. You can repeat the process a few times a day.

 

* When you have bruises, put a compress of salt and vinegar on it . It is also a useful way to treat headaches.

 

* To treat varicose veins, use a compress of salt water on the problematic vein, and on that, an elastic bandage. If you do this regularly, morning and evening, the veins will slowly return to normal.

 

* To treat foot fungus, soak your feet for 5-10 minutes in a mixture of 2 tablespoons of salt for every 0.5 liters of hot water. You can add some ground garlic to the mix. Repeat until fully healed.

 

* After getting stung by a bee, smear a bit of wet salt on the stung area, it will calm down the pain and the swelling.

 

* If you want smooth, healthy skin, rub your body with a salt stone before showering. In addition to a cosmetic treatment, you will also gain a medical benefit while ions of salt penetrate the skin and energize the body.

 

* A salt massage also helps to treat low blood pressure, chronic digestive problems, diabetes, and regular colds. That said there are also NEGATIVE side effects: Open wounds on the skin, rash or Eczema are possible.
