A member asked:
I'm a high blood pressure patient. is it good for me to soak feet in warm water with salt for 10 mins every day ?

Epsom salts: You can soak using Epsom salt which contains magnesium sulfate. This is a different salt than sodium chloride which raises blood pressure. Hope that helps.
