While many people think salt is salt, there is a difference between natural sea salt and the salt found in the shaker on your kitchen table. According to Dr. Michelle Chin, sea salt contains 92 trace minerals compared to only two minerals -- sodium and chloride -- after the refining process. Chin says that consuming sea salt as part of your inner cleanse can be beneficial because the minerals left in sea salt "closely resembles the mineral makeup of human blood." Be sure to check with your doctor before starting any cleansing program to make sure it is safe for your specific condition.

Improved Digestion

Cleansing the body with a solution of 2 tsp of sea salt and two quarts of warm water can help improve the function of your digestive tract, according to HealthGuidance.org. Besides improving the digestion of foods, the cleanse can also help minimize the symptoms associated with digestive tract inflammation, intestinal worms and intestinal damage, according to the sea salt cleansing page at LifeEvents.org.

Improved Energy

You can expect to see improved energy after performing the sea salt cleanse, according to SelfGrowth.com. This energy level is often accompanied by a calmer and more relaxed mood, they say. This is thought to be a result of the removal of toxins that accumulate in your body as a result of additives found in the foods we eat. In addition to improving your mood, the detoxifying effects of the sea salt cleanse are thought to help regulate your metabolism, giving you more energy.
