Despite its name, Epsom salt is a completely different compound than table salt. It was most likely termed “salt” because of its chemical structure.

It has an appearance similar to table salt and is often dissolved in baths, which is why you may also know it as “bath salt.” While it looks similar to table salt, its taste is distinctly different. Epsom salt is quite bitter and unpalatable.

Some people still consume it by dissolving the salt in water and drinking it. However, due to its taste, you probably don’t want to add it to food.

Health benefits of Epsomsalt

1) Provides magnesium

While magnesium sulfate can be used as a magnesium supplement, some people claim that magnesium may be better absorbed via Epsom salt baths than when taken by mouth.

2) Promotes sleep and stress reduction

Adequate magnesium levels are essential for sleep and stress management, likely because magnesium helps your brain produce neurotransmitters that induce sleep and reduce stress. Therefor it soothe muscle pain, soreness or discomfort.

3) Helps with constipation

Magnesium is often used to treat constipation.

It appears to be helpful because it draws water into your colon, which promotes bowel movements.

Most often, magnesium is taken by mouth for constipation relief in the form of magnesium citrate, magnesium hydroxide, or magnesium oxide

4) Exercise performance and recovery

It is well known that adequate magnesium levels are helpful for exercise because magnesium helps increase the availability of glucose in the blood, muscles, and brain while reducing the accumulation of lactic acid in the muscles

5) Reduced pain and swelling

Uses of Epsom salt

Here are a few of the most common ways to use Epsom salt.

  1. Bath

To use epsom salt for bathing, add 2 cups, or about 475 grams (g), of Epsom salt to the water in a standard-sized bathtub and soak your body for at least 15 minutes.

 

You can also put the Epsom salt under running water if you want it to dissolve more quickly.

 

While hot baths can be relaxing, there is currently no good evidence for the benefits of an Epsom salt bath in itself.

 

2. As a Beauty product

Epsom salt may be used as a beauty product for skin and hair. To use it as an exfoliant, just place some in your hand, dampen it and massage it into your skin.

 

Just a 1/2 teaspoon (tsp), or 2.5 g, will do the trick. Simply combine it with your own cleansing cream and massage onto the skin.

 

3. Laxative

 

Epsom salt can be taken by mouth as a magnesium supplement or as a laxative.

 

Though there are no official guidelines for how much you should take, many brands recommend taking 2–6 tsp (10–30 g) per day, dissolved in water, as a maximum for adults, or around 1–2 tsp (5–10 g) for children.

 

Consult with a doctor if you need a more individualized dosage or if you want to increase the dose to more than what is listed on the package.

 

Side effects of Epsom salt

 

While Epsom salt is generally safe, there are a few negative effects that can occur when you take it by mouth.

 

– First of all, the magnesium sulfate in it can have a laxative effect. Consuming  epsom salt in large quantity may result in diarrhea, bloating, or upset stomach

 

-If you use it as a laxative, make sure to drink plenty of water, which may reduce digestive discomfort.

 

-Again, never take more than the recommended dosage without consulting a doctor.

 

– Contact a doctor if you experience signs of an allergic reaction or other serious side effects.
