I don't think I've ever taken it internally, but it works wonders on infected wounds. Once I had a cut on my hand that got infected and had a red streak forming, a sign of blood poisoning. I kept soaking it in hot water with Epsom salt dissolved in it that night, and the next day it was fine. I had the same thing happen with a wound on my foot that had a red streak but I think it only took one or two soakings.
Another thing it's great for is adding to a warm bath to soak in before bed, esp. if you have sore muscles.

Good heavens! Why didn't you go to the emergency room for a cocktail of the most powerful antibiotics to be followed up with possible surgery? Their treatments might have cost an arm or a leg, but Only Medical doctors know what they're doing, don't you know. 😉. You cheated them out of expensive vacations by your risky self treatment.

It sounds like you did the right thing.
Doctors I followed told me that hospitals never use a cheaper, more effective treatment when there are less effective, more expensive profitable treatments available.
Yours might have cost $5 and saved your life. Theirs might have cost over $10,000 plus your life. I'm glad you are still around.

Yes!
A large part of my life is devoted to learning how NDs and the best Nutritionists help people recover. God guided me in circumstances and motivated by love for others and for Him. I learned that many of the cures, the substances and habits that bring about healing are available to the average person.
Your epsom salt is available world wide. It costs less per pound than anything I can think of in the pharmacy section at the stores. Yet, God revealed to you through your Mom or someone that it might help your body knock out those septic infections. I suppose there is a time for some to go to an ER. Instead, you had the Great Physician's help by using what He created for those challenges. The application of that knowledge possibly saved your life. Congratulations!

On a scale from 1-10, (1 no interest, 10 completely into that), where do you place yourself when it comes to interest in natural remedies? Let's say for sake of comparison that the average person is a 1 or 2. If they take vitamins or see a chiropractor, etc. they are a few points higher 3-6.

Good question because I wasn't very clear.
I don't mean how much you know about God's ways of healing. I mean in general, like how much interest when faced with a challenge with personal health or of a family member, someone close. If you could learn about a treatment to help cure / initiate proper healing (10 absolutely) vs go to an MD for meds and let them deal with my health challenge (1).

As far as a passion for helping others with nutritional, supplemental support, I am definitely a 10 on the scale. I always have been thanks to the Lord's direction. It's a lifestyle and I schedule time for learning more about it as well as the Bible. I'm not perfect and there's times I've been tested.

I'd like to say 10...but the question made me do some soul-searching. I have this relative that calls me a lot, and she's on all kinds of medication and is not very healthy. Sadly she's young too, only about 30. And I hate to say it but I haven't shared a whole lot with her. Partly cuz she's extremely opinionated and I feel like she'd be too stubborn to listen to some of the stuff I'd like to say. But I'm more than happy to share with someone who wants to know... There have been times this relative has researched natural remedies and asked me if I know of something, which I'm really glad for. But it would take a big lifestyle shift for her to really get healthy instead of treating the symptoms like she usually does.
Anyway... maybe I'm an 8 on the scale?? But I would aspire to be a 10 I hope.

Yes I care about her and would love to see her make better choices. I should pray more and ask God to give me wisdom and words, and that he'd open up her heart.
PS, I posted a pic of one of our first harvests from our garden over in your thread "Early Gardening Tips." Thought you'd want to see it.
