Epsom Salts

epsom salts
Epsom salts, also known as magnesium sulfate, are colorless, odorless crystals that taste very bitter.

Taken with a little water by mouth, they are used as quick-acting purgative in cases of chronic constipation.

They are also used as a remedy for indigestion, biliousness and fluid retention.

Bathing in water with Epsom salts added was regarded as being beneficial in cases of gout and arthritis.
