Headaches and Migraines can range from being a nuisance to being outright debilitating, they can make it very difficult and often impossible to go about your day to day tasks.
Migraines and Headaches are sometimes common in the case of dehydration, however they are also often a result of deficiencies of certain minerals and electrolytes in the body.
A Himalayan Crystal Salt and Lemon Juice Water solution is the perfect remedy for most Migraines and Headaches. Himalayan Food Salt can provide the body with over 84 different minerals and electrolytes, whereas Lemons are natural detoxifying agents as they promote liver function so that it can more efficiently remove toxins from the body, as well as being loaded with Vitamins.
This mixture is very simple to make, all you will need is:
- 1/2 Teaspoon Himalayan Pink Salt
- 2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
- 250ml Glass of Water (warm or cold)
- (Optional to taste) 1 Teaspoon Honey
Instructions:
- Add the lemon juice and the Himalayan Salt in the water, stir well to dissolve the mixture.
- Add the honey (this is optional if you would like it a little sweeter)
- Drink the whole glass immediately.
- Follow with a glass of clear drinking water. In the next thirty minutes or so try and drink 1-2 more glasses of clear drinking water.
Why does this work for Headaches?
A common misconception is that salt intake causes dehydration, in fact Himalayan Salt actually re-hydrates cells and is rich in electrolytes, nutrients and minerals such as Potassium (another headache beating mineral), Iron and Calcium. This will also alkalise and energise the body. The lemon juice fights acidity and improve the absorption of the nutrients from the salt.
