Health E-Hint: A Warm Bath Could Be Your Best Prescription Therapy!

Many folks find a warm bath can help them unwind after a long, hard day. But you might not realize that you can reap greater health benefits—just by adding a few natural ingredients!

Dian Dincin Buchman, Ph.D., author of The Complete Book of Water Healing suggests these natural remedies:

  • Apple cider vinegar—add a cup to bathwater to refresh and invigorate tired skin; the vinegar also helps restore the proper acid balance to your skin.
  • Bran—helps ease itching and soothe skin irritations; soak a cloth pouch filled with wheat or oat bran in hot water—then add it to your tub water.
  • Pine extract—one capful helps open clogged pores… relieve muscle fatigue… and even speed healing of skin rashes!

These simple solutions for your daily bath water can help relieve stress and fatigue—and keep you energized all day!
