Good morning fellow sufferers,
Both my wife and I have suffered for several years from Type 2 Diabetes and I have recently been reading up on the possible benefits of using Epsom Salts both externally and internally.
Unfortunately there appears to be conflicting information on the benefits (or lack thereof) in the use of Epsom Salts so I am wondering if our members will share their opinions about whether it is good or bad, together with any reputable online links regarding the safety of using it, both externally and internally.
I have read that it can be extremely beneficial if we have a nice long soak in the bath or if we soak our feet in it. Unfortunately we no longer have a bath installed and only have a shower.
Also if we drink Epsom Salts it can help with the lowering of blood sugar levels and hypertension.
On the other hand I have read that using these salts may have detrimental affects for Diabetes Type 2 sufferers.
Any advice or opinions from those who have used, or who are using Epsom Salts would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you all in advance.
John
