Salt Water Sole Benefits + Recipe

salt water sole is highly beneficial to health

Highly processed salt is a supermarket mainstay that has found its way into many a kitchen pantry. However, it is detrimental to health and should be avoided in favour of naturally occurring salts, which can also be made into the highly beneficial salt water solé.

Ancients have long known the benefits of salt, and even more so in the concentrated elixir known as solé (pronounced sol-ay), a Celtic sea or Himalayan salt solution, known to lower blood pressure, support the body with detoxification, improve digestion, regulate blood sugar, act as a natural antihistamine and more.

Made by adding Celtic or Himalayan salt to spring, or properly filtered, water until the water can absorb no more salt, sole is gaining again being appreciated amongst health practitioners and those who take an active interest in their health.

There’s good reason the needs salt of the earth, according to Dr Barbara Hendel and Peter Ferreira, authors of the widely renowned book Water and Salt, The Essence of Life. The human body, it reads, primarily consists of two elements: water and salt, with blood made from one percent sole solution—the same concentration as found in the ocean. Therefore, topping up our sole reserves can have myriad of positive health effects on the body and its functions.

“Salt can neutralise the acids in our bodies, but it can also cancel out harmful electromagnetic vibrations in our environment,” writes Dr Hendel. “Without potassium, which is stripped from table salt, and sodium, we could not think or act.”

Why Not Table Salt

Wholefood chef and bestselling author Cynthia Louise who regularly uses homemade sole in her Bali kitchen says choosing nature derived salts over the common table variety is crucial for real food preparation and to enhance health and overall vibrancy.

“Table salt is refined and highly processed, with 82 out of the 84 minerals stripped away, leaving behind only sodium and chloride that has a huge amount of caking agents in it,” she says. “Table salt is bad stuff… since it’s processed to remove the good stuff, they then have to replace it with lots of other stuff to try and make it similar to its natural state. This doesn’t do your favourite dish or your body any good.”

Salt Water Sole Benefits

Better Digestion: Found to stimulate digestion, taking salt-water sole daily may help with food absorption and regulate elimination.

Detoxification: Minerals in Himalayan or Celtic sea salts are brimming with essential minerals the body needs to function properly. This also includes detoxification. The anti-bacterial properties found in sole may also help eliminate undesirable bacteria.

Enhanced Energy: With 84 minerals from calcium and magnesium to boron and iron found in Himalayan salt, a concentrated salt water sole solution can give the body the extra boost it needs.

Hydration: Adding a few teaspoons (using a non-metal spoon) of salt water sole to your morning drinking water enables the liquid to be absorbed at a cellular level, therefore hydrating the body more effectively. Hydrating properly first thing can give our bodies a much-needed energy boost to start the day.

Vibrant Skin: Getting enough of the right vitamins and minerals is essential for healthy skin, hair and nails. Sole’s plentiful mineral content is a big beauty helper.

Anti-Histamine: Thanks to sole’s balancing properties, it has been known to work as natural anti-histamine.

Cramp Relief: Whether caused by pregnancy or general lack of minerals and magnesium, salt water sole is said to bring relief to those who suffer from muscle cramps.

Weight Management: Thanks to its digestive healing properties, sole may help the body digest food more effectively and therefore assist with weight loss.

Blood Pressure: While often thought as a quick route to raised blood pressure, sole made from nature’s unprocessed salt has been found to lower blood pressure in some people.

Chef Cynthia Louise’s Sole Recipe

What you’ll need: 

  • A glass jar such as wide-mouth mason jar or glass salad bowl
  • A plastic or non-metal lid
  • 1-2 cups Celtic Sea Salt
  • Filtered water (not tap water)

Instructions:

  1. Fill the jar about ¼ of the way with Celtic Sea Salt.
  2. Add filtered water to fill the jar, leaving about an inch at the top.
  3. Fasten the plastic lid and shake jar gently. If you are using a bowl, stir it with a wooden spoon.
  4. Leave on the counter overnight to let the salt dissolve.
  5. The next day, if there is still some salt at the bottom of the jar, the water has absorbed its maximum amount of salt and the sole is ready to use.
  6. If all of the salt is absorbed, add more salt (yes more!) and continue doing so each day until some remains. This means that the water is fully saturated with the salt.

Method:

Mix 1 tsp of the salt water sole into a glass of water and consume every morning on an empty stomach. Do not use a metal utensil to measure or touch the sole with any metal object.

Note: As with any health advice, consult a qualified practitioner before adding any new supplements to your diet, especially if pregnant, nursing or if you have a medical condition.

Asking questions in every moment opens the portal to receiving the answers. There is no mistake in the phrase, “ask and you shall receive”. The issue is, most of us have forgotten the importance of asking. Write them down, state them aloud, think them into form. The phone cannot be answered if it does not ring. The asking is the calling. Also remember—the asking is not akin to a search engine, with answers appearing the moment you type in the question. Once you ask, have patience, trusting the answers always come… sometimes, oftentimes, when you least expect them.

Authenticity is an art. It comes when we care less about what others (supposedly) think of us, when we stop self-judgment and release the need to “please" in the hope of being rewarded for our “niceness”.

Authenticity is an art, embodied when we realise we are perfectly imperfect.

Authenticity is realness on all levels — an outward expression of the inner you: The person you know so well but have hidden from world around, for fear of being judged or hurt.

Authenticity cannot be taught. It comes from the innate understanding we are complete and therefore require no walls, no masks and no excuses.

When we women each learn to truly embody our authenticity, this is when we create great change because we act from the well of all creation, undiluted by societal programming and expectations.

The evolution to authenticity begins with you.
