How to Detoxify With Epsom Salts

Adding Epsom salts to your bath can provide a series of health benefits. The sulfates in Epsom salts flush toxins from the body, increases the body's ability to absorb nutrients and reduces migraine headaches. The magnesium in Epsom salts ease sore muscles, reduce stress, improve sleep and help prevent blood clots. Both minerals are easily absorbed into the skin, making Epsom salts an ideal addition to your bath water.
