The Healthy Summer Drink Full Of Benefits!

 

I am always on a quest to increase my energy, health and well-being and this drink is a firm favourite of mine, especially when the weather is hot (and if you have been heavily pregnant in the summer – then you really know what hot is!)

Do you wake up in the morning feeling exhausted?

Do you fatigue again by mid afternoon?

Do you experience headaches or other aches and pains?

Lemon water with Pink Himalayan Salt not only boosts energy in a natural, effective way, but it also provides a huge amount of health benefits.

Himalayan sea salt contains 84 trace minerals, which is why it is so nourishing! In order for our bodies to function in their best and most efficient way, our health depends on having adequate micro nutrient and mineral stores.

Here’s why I drink it:

Lemons – High in Vitamin C (good for the immune system), help balance the body’s pH, naturally antibacterial, help dissolve uric acid (which means they decrease inflammation in joints!)

Himalayan Pink Salt

Digestion Sea salt helps to stimulate enzymes that aid digestion. The salt helps nutrients from food and water to be absorbed into the body.

Hydration: Drinking water with natural salt increases hydration allowing the body to absorb and use the water you are taking in.

Muscle Cramps and Headache Relief: Electrolyte imbalances and dehydration can cause both muscle pain and headaches. Himalayan Salt contains Magnesium which helps to relieve headaches.

Adrenal and Thyroid Support: Sea salt can help nourish the thyroid by supplying it with iodine and selenium, minerals known to help regulate thyroid function.

Energy: Himalayan Salt provides the body with a huge amount of minerals to boost energy levels needed to begin the day.

Sleep: By providing calming minerals like magnesium and calcium, sea salt can improve sleep. Sea salt is also known to reduce cortisol, the stress hormone, creating a more calming effect in the body.

Alkalizes the Body’s pH: Todays diet can contain processed, refined foods, creating an overly acidic pH to our body and bloodstream. By providing the body with so many necessary trace minerals, the body becomes more alkalized, creating less inflammation and disease.
