STARTING YOUR DAY ON THE RIGHT FOOT
MORNING REHYDRATION DRINK
1/2 tsp Oryx Desert Salt
the juice of half a lemon, freshly squeezed
1 tsp raw, local honey
Optional extras:
* The juice of half an orange, freshly squeezed
* 2 drops of dĹŤTERRA lemon essential oil (for gentle cleansing, detoxing and alkalising)
* OR 2 drops of dĹŤTERRA metaPWR essential oil (for improving metabolism, increased energy, curbing cravings and supporting healthy blood sugar levels)
Place the salt, lemon juice, honey (and orange juice and essential oils if using) into a 500ml glass jar or bottle. Add 300ml cold, filtered water. Top up with another 200ml of hot filtered water from the kettle. Stir or shake to disperse the ingredients. Enjoy first thing upon waking, on an empty stomach. If possible, wait 30 minutes before eating or drinking anything else.
VERY IMPORTANT
I only recommend using dĹŤTERRA essential oils for internal use especially, and want to highlight how cautious one should be of quality, source and purity when using essential oils. Watch my video below to understand why
A WORD ON SALT
Salt has been given a bad rap, but it is all dependant on the type and quality of salt that you use. Plain iodated table salt should be avoided, but the natural minerals in real salt are very necessary for proper functioning of the body. In fact, when there are not adequate levels of these minerals in the body you cannot hydrate properly no matter how much water you drink. I personally only use and recommend Oryx Desert Salt. This is a beautiful local product and I personally know the founder and owner of the company, and trust her ethos and passion for sustainability and purity.Â
Himalayan pink salt has become very trendy, but asides from the aspect of it being imported from across the world, it has come to my attention that unfortunately the purity of this type of salt cannot always be trusted. So unless you know for certain that you're getting it from an excellent source I would avoid this one - tests have shown high levels of heavy metals present in the salt, and some unscrupulous companies are even cutting the salt with other substances to make it go further.
