I have no idea. I detox from the inside out. Interesting question though...

Unless you are sensitive to sulfur, 2 cups Epsom salts and 1 cup baking soda are very good for detoxification and will also help with muscle soreness. Use the warmest water that is comfortable for you. This bath also helps me sleep very well! I get Epsom salts at the grocery store--about 3 dollars for 4 pounds, and baking soda is .49 per pound. Way cheaper than massage therapy :)

I use the Morton pellets (yellow bag) and nothing else. They warn - DO NOT MIX SALTS. It uses the salt and brine water miserly, very efficient and recycles (regenerates) in about 18-20 minutes.Great unit, great tech service for questions, etc.

Sea salt is fine to use. Sea salt is a mix of primarily sodium chloride with other salts of potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Table salt is typically sodium chloride with some iodine (for thyroid health). The role of salt in the neti pot solution is to balance the osmotic pressure between your cells and the nasal wash solution. Plain sodium chloride can do this, but many people prefer sea salt or mined salts for their mix of salts. In western medicine, "normal saline" is used to increase blood volume or rinse wounds and is composed of just sodium chloride and water.

I have used and continue to use several types of Organic Miso. It is a very good probiotic. My favorite is Hacho Miso, but all of them have been really good and beneficial. I use approximately 1 heaping teaspoonful dissolved in a cup of hot distilled water. Only one teaspoonful because of the high salt content. And I don't boil water with Miso in it because that "kills" the beneficial living enzymes and destroys many of the health benefits. I normally prepare some rice noodles to combine with it, and always put some homemade ghee with it. One container of Miso usually lasts me a couple of months. I have Miso soup 2 to 4 times a week.

I use epsom salt with mine Vitamin C disks. I haven't noticed any problems & don't expect to. It's just a vitamin so there shouldn't be any reason not to add essential oils or salts to the bath.

Several website will answer your question: http://www.pureformulas.com/customers-testimonials.html#sthash.YAkAB1N4.dpbs http://www.sinussupport.com/education/sea-salt/ Hope this will help,as I understand regular table salt has ingredients that will stinging and has no more important minerals.

You can buy "saline solution packets" or make it at home (like I do). I use a half a teaspoon of baking soda & a half a teaspoon of sea salt. Less less expensive that way. I do buy the packets when I'm traveling. Hope this helps. A neti pot has been a panacea for me, but I know now that it's not right for everyone.

I would say they are comparable to table salt, they worked great from my bath fizzies!

They are all great for baths. The lavender, lemongrass, and peppermint are the best for soaking. The orange is good as well. The tea tree is an antibacterial oil so use sparingly. That's for all the oils but tea tree and EUCALYPTUS ARE two you want to be careful with. The eucalyptus oil is generally for sinuses, cold, etc it is also go for outdoor to ward off bugs. Hope this helps !

If you use colored salt it will have an effect. If you use plain table salt on several people you will see different colored water depending on the person not on the salt. Just on myself I get different colors depending on what is being detoxified. Try not to use sea salt. To many minerals.

We add a quarter box of baking soda and about a half cup of the flakes to a foot bath or a regular bath. My husband is diabetic and this seems to help with calming and the need for additional magnesium. There are other brands also worthy and less expensive.

Not recommended anymore because of brain eating amoebas killing a couple of people after using tap water and a different sinus irrigation product. (Sounds crazy I know, but Google it) Just use distilled, filtered or boiled along with regular salt. As the others have said, regular salt does burn more than the premixed solutions. It doesn't really bother me though.

Hello Iris, I am in agreement with the other answers -you might be able to (possibly) use the finer grained Himalayan sea salt (not the regular salt sold in grocery stores). However, the directions said,"not to shake the comtainer". If you decide to try the finer grains, be careful not to shake the container, and/or wait until the "salt has settled". Also, if you want peace of mind, simply use the medium or larger chunks of the Himalayan pink sea salt!

Sure, I do, I am going to try the detox day that Dr. Oz speaks of. I brewed an entire pot of the dandelion root tea, and it was great. I do add truvia to it, just half a packet. When trying to break away from decaf coffee, I turn to either one of these teas. Water gets boring, so I make a cup of tea, either one of these is a nice break.

I would go to their website and ask. I have only used my Zen Detox one time. I find it very hard to regulate the salt you put in the water to actually get it to keep working during the detox.

The salt which is for consumption is of a higher quality. Yep, higher quality. That being said, if you use Himalayan salt which is small - it likely won't only fall through the small air inlet holes on the bottom, but would likely absorb the humidity in the air and clump up clogging up the holes. Which would result in making it useless. Folks have had great benefits from the coarsely ground salt. So that's what I would stick with.
