What Does Epsom Salt Do To Bacterial And Fungal Infection?

Epsom Salt has several potential health benefits, including its use in treating bacterial or fungal infections as it can draw out infection from wounds or skin.

Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) is widely known for its ability to ease sore muscles, reduce stress, and improve sleep. In addition to its use as a natural remedy for humans, Epsom salt has also been shown to have antimicrobial properties and can be effective against certain types of bacteria.

How does Epsom salts draw out infection?

Epsom salt has been shown to have antimicrobial properties and can be effective against certain types of bacteria. It works by disrupting the cell membrane of bacteria, causing them to lyse or burst open. This process releases the contents of the bacteria into the surrounding environment, preventing further growth and replication. Epsom salt is particularly effective against gram-negative bacteria, which have an outer membrane that is susceptible to disruption.

Studies have shown that Epsom salt can be effective against a variety of bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. These bacteria can cause a range of infections, including skin infections, urinary tract infections, and respiratory infections. In addition to its antimicrobial properties, Epsom salt also has anti-inflammatory and exfoliating effects on the skin.

How you can use it?

Soaking your wound, feet, hands or any other infected body part in a bath containing Epsom salts can help dry out fungal infections by killing fungal spores.
