Here are some simple, easy detox methods you can do at home
using ingredients you most likely have in your house. And, it
costs just pennies! I have used these methods on a regular basis
over the last several years. I do take breaks from doing these
all the time so tailor it to your needs. As with anything, do
your own research and check with your doctor to make sure these
methods are safe for you. There are multiple articles on the
internet discussing these detox methods.

BAKING SODA/SEA SALT or EPSOM SALT BATH (top
of page)
Baking Soda and Epsom Salts or Sea Salt can be a very beneficial
detoxification and help remove toxins from the body. Baking Soda helps
to alkalinize the body and most people are acidic due to their diets.
Epsom Salts contain magnesium sulfates and many are deficient in
magnesium, a very important nutrient necessary for our health. Sea Salt
also has a detoxifying effect on the body.
Variations:
- ½ cup of Epsom salts or Sea Salt
- ½ cup Baking Soda
Moderately hot water (Caution: you may feel dizzy after the soak due
to the hot water and possibly release of toxins. Relax or lay down
after the bath)
Soak approximately 20 minutes (longer may release toxins faster which
may cause some flu-like symptoms)
Or
- 1 cup Baking Soda
- 1-2 cups Epsom Salts or Sea Salt
Bath info the same as above
Or
- 1 lb. of Baking Soda in bath; soak 20 minutes
Options: Add a few drops of your favorite essential oil
Suggestion: Take a detoxification bath once a week or once every
2 weeks on a regular basis.
This is not for internal use. Most people are deficient in magnesium
and you need a sufficient amount of magnesium in the body to utilize
calcium properly. This is an amazing product that has multiple uses.
Bath: 1 cup of magnesium crystals in bath; soak for 40 minutes.
Foot bath: ¼ cup magnesium crystals in tub with water just enough to
cover feet; soak 30-40 minutes
Mix magnesium crystals with water: 50% crystals, 50% water. Spray on
bruises, swelling from injuries, aches and pains. This is phenomenal.

Research online for the many other health benefits of magnesium.
My husband’s story: After a malfunction while riding his bicycle
where he was thrown to the road and he was really banged up we used
magnesium oil on the places he felt bruised and had swelling. Also I had
him soak in a tub with magnesium. This was amazing at how little
bruising occurred and how fast he healed. We did not put the oil
directly on the road rash area as it stings but did put it all around
the open wounds to keep the swelling down. We used nascent iodine and
Bag Balm salve on the open cuts. The iodine aids as an antibiotic and
helps limit scarring and the Bag Balm works as an antibiotic and keeps
the scabs soft while healing.

This is a great detox. Most people are carrying anywhere from 5-12
pounds, and possibly more, of sludge in their intestinal tract. This is a
very inexpensive method that I have found to help me tremendously. I do
it first thing in the morning, spend 3-4 trips to the bathroom and then
it’s over – no all day bathroom trips.
Basic instructions:

helps pull toxins from the body and can clear blocked energy. Cider
vinegar has many, many healing qualities which you can find by searching
