Hello
I have to admit that I was skeptical when I first heard about himalayan salt and all of its health benefits. I purchased the crystal rocks from a local health food store and I am still using the first batch of sole brine. I have had high blood pressure for about 10 years and I have been on many types of medication that do not seem to bring it down to a comfortable level. My last visit to the doctor was surprising. I still take my medication every day but by adding the sole mixture each day to a bottle of water my blood pressure has gone from an unhealthy 180/110 to a moderate 140/95. I want to get down to 128/80 where I used to be years ago. I recently purchased the fine grain himalayan salt for cooking purposes. I have tried it on meat and it is GREAT on popcorn. I don't know how this stuff works but it has certainly had a positive effect in my life so far. There is so much hype on the internet about the salt being a "gimmick" and some people say that the only part of it that is salt is the white part and that all of the pink stuff is toxic and unhealthy. So far so good for me. I noticed that you are in BC. I live in Langley so it is great to see province related goods.

Keep up the good work on the production line!!!

Psoriasis
I have struggled with psoriasis on my scalp since I was a child and have tried almost ever product out there with little to no results. Over the years I noticed that when I swam in the ocean my psoriasis cleared up a bit and the itchiness and flaking subsided. After discovering Rose and her Himalayan salt I decided to make a solution of Himalayan salt water and spray it on my scalp every day after showering. The results have been amazing and I continue to make and use the salt solution to keep my psoriasis at bay. Thank you so much Rose for introducing me to your product. Sincerely,
B.C., Brackendale

Dear Rose,
Why do I believe in Himalayan Salt?

Having started to use Himalayan Salt with my meals six short years ago simply because it tastes good, it was only 8 weeks into those six years that something rather dramatic occurred. I suddenly realized my shoulder pain was greatly reduced and my range of motion restored to 100%. My bursitis, which I had suffered with for the previous four years was nearly gone. The only thing I did different in my entire lifestyle was switch the kind of salt I was using on my food. It will come as no surprise that all the pain went away within a few more weeks and my shoulder has been completely normal since.

Fast forward to last year and I found my blood pressure was ranging between 130-150 over 90-110. I refuse to take “meds”, but nothing seemed to help. My wife found an article by a doctor who used a brine solution to help people. Ever since I started adding two eyedropper squirts of Himalayan Salt brine to every 16 ounces of water I drink my blood pressure has held steady between 110- 125 over 75-85.

Hi, As soon as I saw your salts I bought bath crystals, table salt and rock salt to make sole. I love the energy of these crystals. Thanks so much

I have been using the Himalayan crystal salt for my family since Saturday and we're really enjoying it. I thought I was a fan of the taste of sea salt, but this is so pure without any residue taste I was accustomed to. Thank-you very much,

“When our first son was born we noticed he had a rash on his calves and arms that never seemed to go away. We tried different lotions, and a few different bath soaps to try and stop the irritation but nothing really took the rash away. We did a little research and as far as we could tell the rash was Contact Dermatitis and can be caused by clothes rubbing on the areas of the skin. So we decided to try an alternative to conventional laundry soap, and that is when we found the Heartfelt Living Liquid Soap Nuts. Within a couple weeks our sons Contact Dermatitis had cleared up and we continue to use the Liquid Soap nuts for all his clothes. Thank you Heartfelt Living.”

Hi Rose, During my mid twenties I developed severe Ulcerative Colitis. After being diagnosed I was told there was no cure and only medications and eventually surgery would be necessary to extend the longevity of my life. I was prescribed sulfa drugs, some cancer medications, pain killers and cortisone (steroids) to lessen the pain of this disease. As the disease progressed I developed kidney disease (kidney stones), severe migraine headaches, osteoporosis (bone disease), and some arthritis. After 15 years of the colitis treatment my adrenal glands had shut down and I had gained about a hundred pounds of weight from the steroid use causing electrolyte imbalance, osteoporosis and super hydrosis (severe sweating) and eventually the large bowel started turning cancerous. Over a one year period I had major bowel surgery five times before returning home for any length of time. I continued with heavy medication therapy for nearly another fifteen years and eventually had a bowel obstruction. I was put on more medication to bring down the bowel inflammation and clear the obstruction. That medication set off type two diabetes. I was put on 60 plus units of insulin per day and was testing blood a minimum of flour times a day and injecting insulin 5 times a day to keep my blood sugars down. ?Over the years I came to realize that the medical profession did not have the answers to a lot of my health problems and that there were not magic pills to get rid of the health problems ether. I had been reading a lot of health magazines over the years and taking herbs and trying to live a healthier life style to try and help myself cope with the medical problems that were only getting worse. I eventually met a natural practitioner and on the one visit he suggested that I start using Himalayan salt instead of table salt and making sole (brine) to add a few drops to the water I was drinking on a daily basis. I started feeling better after about a week of increasing the sole by one drop per day up to seven drops per day total. After being on the sole for a couple more weeks I noticed my blood sugars were going down significantly each day. I was dropping one to two units of insulin per day and there was concern my blood sugar would go too low which could also cause other problems. This continued until I came off insulin completely. My health still continued to improve each day and I thought maybe I might try coming off of steroids again. I had tried several times in the past but my electrolytes would become imbalanced because my adrenal glands had shut down due to steroid use and I would have to go back to using them again. Well this time I finally succeeded. The salt continued to keep my electrolytes in balance and I am off steroids for the first time in thirty years. Because I no longer use steroids my weight has come down about seventy five pounds as well. I haven't felt this good in thirty years.?To sum this up, I have learned that to be healthy, you have to live healthy. Eating good quality, pollution free foods, ingredients (Himalayan salt being one of them), doing your own cooking, baking, getting enough rest and exercise will get rid a lot of diseases. Thanks.

Hi Rose, Great results on my fibroid tumour. When it was first found my doctor told me it made my uterus feel about 6 weeks pregnant. I was having terrible cramps with every cycle (spent all day on the couch with a heating pad and lots of Motrin). After being on the salt brine (1 tsp daily) for about 4 months my uterus feels normal again (Doc says he can't feel anything) and my cramps etc. have all subsided. Thanks so much for your help.

I purchased a salt lamp and brought it into my living room to help keep the energy of the room clean and appealing. (I am a Natural Health Consultant, and have many clients through my home. Clients often comment on the air quality in my home-we have the salt lamp always plugged in, as well as a mister, and a fountain) Much to my surprise, my cat took an instant liking to the lamp. He is an orange, long haired, polydactyl cat (6 toes on each foot). In the winter time he usually gets quite scruffy looking and his hair becomes quite unhealthy. He proceeded to curl up around the base of the lamp and slept there anytime he could get the chance. His hair has improved greatly and now a few years later, he still sleeps on the back of the couch close to the lamp. It made a huge difference for him. Have a great day.

A very Happy New Year to you! I would like to let you know what benefits I've experienced since using Himalayan crystal salt. I take the sole in water each morning. I worked up to 1 teaspoon as recommended but then felt better to drop back to 1/2 teaspoon. I have some problems with the skin of my scalp that can cause me annoying discomfort. Taking the salt created much improvement within a couple of weeks. On a few occasions, I also apply the sole directly to my scalp and leave it on for a day or overnite. I'm very happy to have gained this benefit. We also use the salt at our table.

Before I used (the) Washnuts, I was very skeptical but when I took my laundry out of my washing machine I was astonished at the results. My whites were brilliant white. I couldn't believe it. I stared (in amazement) at my clothing and thanked God for giving us these trees on earth from which to use their fruits. Feeling the laundry, you can tell there is no residual substance left in it. It is clean, chemical free, white, soft, smells good and there is nothing remaining in the fabric which could cause an allergic reaction on my skin. Thank you Rose for always thinking about your customers and how to improve their lives. Love and Blessings

Dear Rose: I have been using the Sole for more than a year now. It is so easy to take that first glass of water with a teaspoon of Sole and start each day knowing I have taken all of the trace minerals and elements required by every cell in the body. It is an inexpensive way to complement a healthy diet. Since using the Sole I have added the grinder salt and the cosmetics, Day and Night cream, shampoo and the Peloid Mask. I had been wearing a support for my hand since I had a thumb and finger in trauma. They would not bend and were in constant pain. One day after applying my peloid mask I put a poultice on my thumb, wrapped it and put a warm salt pack in the hand. I did this three or four times a day and after a few days could see and feel the difference. I have a much greater range of motion and almost no pain. I will continue the treatment in the hope that I will regain full range of motion. The peloid mask also gives instant relief from insect bites. Thank you so much for these products. Himalayan Salt is useful for both inner and outer support and healing. Sincerely

My older daughter Lesley, asked me last night, out of the blue, if she could call the "Salt Lady" and thank her for "Ellie" the cuddly elephant. She has named her "Ellie" and she told me that she loves her very much and loves to have her on the pillow next to here every night. Lesley says that "she loves the smell of Ellie" and wanted you to know that she feels lucky to have her in bed with her. I told Lesley that we could call Rose and she became very shy and said "can you email her, my message." So there you are, a very sincere thank you from my daughter Lesley.

Good morning Rose, Got our order yesterday, thanks...! We have a situation. A regular client has a history..... had an adverse drug reaction with medication prescribed after surgery...causing her heart to malfunction...eg, race at times. This weekend her condition worsened and she went to Emergency where finally, the Dr. figures she is sodium depleted, because she drinks a lot of water. Of course, she's already on the brine, only a few drops, and she and her son are seeking our advice, because she's been prescribed sodium tablets. I told the son to have her increase her brine to begin with, at 1/4 tsp. twice daily, then increase a little at a time, til she reaches 1/2 tsp. 2xdaily. But max out at 1 tsp daily.

After just 3 weeks of taking the sole, my energy has increased, my stomach no longer hurts, my bowels move regularly, I have a flat stomach again, I have lost 5 pounds without changing my diet, and my skin is glowing from the peloid mask. I'm sharing my products with my clients until my next order arrives so they can start improving their health now. Thank you.

Hi Rose... Well, the "Sole'...did the trick for our client, bringing her sodium level back to normal in a couple of days.....although she is still having heart problems which the Drs. can't diagnose :-((. But the Salt did the trick for the sodium deficiency...without any other sodium treatment!

I just wanted to mention that my salt bath, taken at new moon, has had some good effect...cleansing effects (extra bowel movements) for both my partner and I. I have lost another kg from my weight, and still feel good.

Hi Rose, I just wanted to write and let you know that I have been using the crystal salt sole now for almost 2 months. I had patches of psoriasis in my hands, arms, and legs. Since I have been drinking one teaspoon of the sole in spring water every morning, my psoriasis is completely gone. This is amazing to me, because in Calgary's dry climate, the psoriasis usually got a lot worse in the winter months. My skin is still somewhat dry and itchy, but no more patches of dry, scaly skin!

J.B., Vancouver
Thanks, I find that my circulation was poor prior to drinking the sole, especially in my feet and hands, now my circulation is perfect.

Just have to tell you about my experience with your product. I have had a sick little daughter with a rash and not getting alot of sleep myself. After only 3 days of using the sole myself, (and not even at full strength) I should be really tired as I am also working full time. To make it worse, I forgot the past few days to take my regular vitamins and expected to be dragging myself around. I am absolutely amazed! I feel energetic and very clear minded and well rested for not having a good nights sleep in awhile! My sick daughter has had a really bad rash all over her body from some allergy, unknown?? The first night I put her in the bath and tried to sooth the itch, it calmed her down. But it came back the next day just as bad and was told to put the sole on the rash. Well, I applied the sole to my daughter's body, she just thought it was water as she experienced no stinging when I applied it. Within half an hour the rash was entirely gone and hasn't returned. As a Mom, I will keep these Himalayan Salt products on hand always and as a busy person that runs her own business, I will continue to use this product as I am amazed that something so simple can make such a difference to me and my family! I would recommend that everyone should be using this product, I have my first aid kit & energy booster in a bottle! Himalayan Salt who would have thought ............ I would like to thank you and your product for this!

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I have been taking your Himalayan Crystal Salt product for a couple of weeks now. I have Arthritis in knees, ankles, lower back and hands. I know half of my problem is ability to absorb the minerals & vitamins I need. I cannot believe how good I feel already. I have energy, clarity in thinking and remembering, and best of all I have less pain than normal. I do take 1 tsp aday in am on empty stomach. I don't want to sound like a commercial, but I am totally sold on this product. I have tried just about everything out there, with minimal to nil results. I would like anymore info I can get on all of your products including price lists please. I have just got my Mom & daughter some crystals so they can start also. I am so very pleased. If I feel this good in such a short time, I can't wait to see how I will be in a year from now. Thank- you again.
