Depositing salt in the body is not a good thing. This can be due to a metabolic disorder, but the most common culprits are poor diet and genetic predisposition. In all cases, it is important to avoid eating too much salty food, as this can cause back and neck pain (this is very common, especially in those who are not physically active enough - less salt, and the problem won't recur), and it will also reduce joint diseases and muscle cramps if you effectively deal with salt.

Drinking water, of course, reduces the concentration of salt in the body, but you would have to drink almost twice as much water as needed to flush out a small amount of salt. The methods below, which activate the body's cleansing processes, are much more effective. This way, you will get rid of excess salt in just a few hours.


1. Rice
Regular rice cooked in water binds twice as much salt as most other foods. If you mix rice with dried fruits and milk or yogurt, the effect will be even better.

2. Dried Fruit Soaked in Water
Soak plums, raisins, dried apricots in water overnight... Drink 3 dl of this water and eat 300 grams of dried fruit per day, and you won't have problems with salt accumulation.

3. Bay Leaf
Bay leaf can be used as a spice in dishes (it works very effectively even in small quantities), or you can prepare bay leaf tea and drink 2 to 3 cups a day. Of course, without sugar or other additives.

4. Buckwheat and Kefir
In Finland, a very popular way to cleanse the body is with buckwheat and kefir. Soak 2 tablespoons of buckwheat in kefir in the morning, and drink this mixture in the afternoon. This method is also very effective for weight loss.

5. Citrus Fruits
If you drink a glass of freshly squeezed juice (just 1 dl is enough) in the evening, you will achieve multiple positive effects. The body will cleanse itself, citrus fruits have anti-inflammatory properties, and excess salt will be expelled from the body within a few hours.
