Prepare the Concentrate (Optional Method)

Fill a jar with a 4 tablespoons of pink Himalayan salt.

Cover the salt with 1/2 cup filtered water, leaving some space at the top.

Seal and allow the mixture to sit for 12–24 hours so that the salt fully saturates the water.

You now have a “sole” (concentrated salt water). You can keep adding more salt or water as needed; the water is considered “fully saturated” when salt crystals remain undissolved at the bottom.

Daily Use

In the morning, add 1 teaspoon (5 mL) of the concentrated salt solution (or 1 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt directly) to a large glass of room-temperature or warm water (about 8–12 ounces or 250–350 mL).

Optional: Squeeze in fresh lemon juice or add 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar for flavor.

You can also add 1 tsp raw honey for the taste and additional health benefits. But remember honey is a natural sweetener and it will also add calories

Stir well and drink slowly.

Timing

Many advocates suggest consuming this first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Others may split it into two servings (morning and midday).
