To maintain the health of your body, you need to regularly cleanse it, and salt water with lemon and some simple exercises presented in the article will help with this.
The human body is a perfect system, but even here it cannot do without “breakdowns” that can occur due to poor-quality food or water, stress or illness, bad habits, and much more. This causes pain, heaviness, slow metabolism, so it is necessary to regularly cleanse the intestines to prevent poor health or disease. In pharmacies there are many preparations for cleansing the intestines or the whole body, but you can improve your health with the help of folk methods which are safer and cheaper.
This method was invented by Indian yogis, famous for their longevity, good health and unquenchable strength. The essence of cleansing the intestines with salt water is that it is not absorbed in the intestines, but passes through them, taking with it toxins, toxic deposits or long-stale food leftovers. Thus, the entire gastrointestinal tract is cleansed.
Also, thanks to water with salt, you can get rid of edema, although many believe that this seasoning, on the contrary, causes them. This is partly true, but drinking saline rather than eating seasoned food can actually get rid of excess water. Once in the intestines, water with salt causes a physical reaction - osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water from places with a low concentration of substances in it to areas with a large part of the dissolved particles. That is, the body itself tries to dilute the salty liquid, giving off excess moisture.
Indications for cleaning
- Swelling of the limbs or face.
- Heaviness in the lower abdomen.
- Stool disorder (constipation or diarrhea).
- Flatulence or bloating.
- Excess weight.
- Unbalanced or poor quality food.
- Lack of constant sports activities.
Contraindications
At first glance, it seems that cleansing with salt water cannot have contraindications, but they are present, so you need to pay attention to them:
- erosion of the stomach or intestines;
- dehydration of the body;
- infectious diseases;
- chronic diseases of the stomach, liver, pancreas, intestines;
- irritation of the colon and anus;
- acute infectious diseases.
The essence of the procedure
Cleansing is carried out as follows: a solution with salt water and lemon is prepared in advance (the last ingredient is optional, but it greatly enhances the effect). In the morning on an empty stomach, a glass of solution is drunk, after which a series is performed simple exercises. Then again you need to drink water with salt and do exercises and so on until the solution runs out. 
Purification process
After a certain number (most often 5-6) glasses, the urge to defecate appears, during which all excess is removed from the body. After that, you must continue to do exercises and drink a solution with salt and lemon until absolutely clean water begins to come out of the intestines. When this began to happen, the procedure can be completed.
It is not recommended to use toilet paper after bowel movements, because the anus is irritated by salt water, and rough paper several times will aggravate the situation even more. It is better to clean the anus with warm water, and when the procedure is over - lubricate it with baby cream.
Steps after cleaning
Cleansing with salt water will take up to 2 hours (depending on the degree of contamination of the body). It will take 10-15 glasses of salt water for the procedure, but it is worth remembering that you can not drink more than 3.5 liters of solution at a time! After cleansing, it is necessary to restore the water balance and calm the intestines. This is done with salt water, but now after drinking it, induce vomiting.
After that, drink a few glasses of already fresh liquid (you can add a teaspoon of lemon juice), go to the shower, lubricate the anus with baby cream and lie down to rest. After 1.5-2 hours, you can have breakfast, but it’s better to starve that day, and the next day choose a light meal (cereals on the water, boiled or baked meat or fish, vegetables, fruits).
Cleansing the body with water with salt and lemon is not the most pleasant procedure, but the positive effect of it is worth all the effort, because the very next day you will feel light and clean.
Solution preparation
There is nothing difficult here. Buy in the store 5 liters clean water(it is better not to use the one that flows in the tap, because it contains a lot of bacteria and impurities). Pour 3 liters into a large saucepan, bring to a boil and let it simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from heat. Then add three tbsp. l. table or sea salt without a slide, then pour in 300 ml of lemon juice. Move everything carefully, let the solution cool to 38-40 degrees. After that, cleaning can be carried out. 
Cleansing exercises
It was said above that the cleansing of the body takes place not only with water with other ingredients, but is also accompanied by exercises. They are not active and heavy, but slow and calm, because their main goal is to help water pass through the intestines faster, that is, to speed up peristalsis. The following exercises must be performed strictly in order, because they act on different parts of the digestive tract as the water passes. You can rest only after those manipulations for which it is indicated.

Exercise #3
We stand in the same way, feet shoulder-width apart, and hands in front of us. We turn the body to the right, turning the head along with it. Wherein right hand goes behind the back, and the left reaches the right shoulder. Return to the starting position, turn to the left in the same way as the first time. Perform 5 slow turns.
Exercise #4
Probably everyone remembers the “boat” exercise from school. We combine the palms, and straighten the feet. Only the stomach should lie on the mat. Now start gently rocking like a boat. Perform two times for 30 seconds, resting for a minute between them. 
Exercise #5
The last exercise that will speed up the flow of water through the intestines and relax the muscles. Lie on your stomach, put your palms under your chest, and then lift your upper body, leaning on them. Look over your right shoulder and then over your left. Perform 5 head turns, then look straight ahead, standing in a pose, take 10 breaths and exhalations.
After completing this cycle, we drink another glass of the solution and start all over again.

On the eve of cleansing at night, you need to put a laxative 200-gram (with an infusion of garlic or urine) and a cleansing 2-liter (with a decoction of celandine, tansy or wormwood) enema.
On the 1st day, juice from 3 lemons is prepared. To do this, they are first scalded with boiling water for a minute so that they are fragrant. Then each fruit is cut into 2 halves, with a spoon and the core is removed and filtered through cheesecloth. The resulting lemon juice is mixed with water in a ratio of 1:2. This is food for the whole day. Lemon drink is taken in small portions. In the presence of a juicer, lemon juice is obtained with its help. The remaining fiber and peel should not be thrown away.

These days, it is also necessary to do cleansing 2-liter enemas acidified with apple cider vinegar, lemon or cranberry juice every day - in the morning and in the evening. With lemon cleansing, acidosis does not happen, as the body is alkalized. However, it should be remembered that in the stomach itself, the lemon has an acidic reaction due to citric acid, therefore, those suffering from increased acidity of the stomach and gastritis or stomach ulcers should not be cleansed with lemon.

Expert advice for effective cleansing.
For those who cannot use lemons for liver cleansing for any reason, it is recommended to use the juice of grated cucumbers pickled in a barrel. Nadezhda Semyonovna herself salts cucumbers according to the following recipe, which, perhaps, will seem interesting to many of us. Washed cucumbers, taken from the garden, she withstands for a day in salt water. Then he puts horseradish leaves, dill umbrella, nettle, currant leaf in a clean jar, lays cucumbers and pours everything boiled water from 3 tbsp. spoons of salt. Within 3 days, it gives the opportunity to sour. After that, the juice is poured into a saucepan, boiled and poured into a jar for 20 minutes, then boiling is repeated. Before closing the jar, add garlic.
And also for those who have liver problems or who suffer from colitis (inflammation of the colon), gastritis (inflammation of the lining of the stomach), or peptic ulcer, we offer this recipe: mix 2 yolks from rustic homemade chicken, 2 tbsp. spoons of glycerin, 2 tbsp. spoons of olive oil, 2 tbsp. spoons of bitter rum; in the morning make a cleansing enema, eat the medicinal mixture on an empty stomach and after 30 minutes - a meat dish. After a single dose of the medicine, take a 10-day break, then again prepare the next portion and eat - until recovery.

To cleanse the blood at the cell level, experts suggest the following. Take 50 g of magnesia and dilute it with 50 g of melt water, add 50 ml of clean cold water and lemon juice to it. Drink on an empty stomach and take a bath, which with its heat will help expand the blood, and magnesia, like a magnet, will pull out all the dirt from the cells. Then after an hour you can start eating citrus fruits, repeating their intake every 30 minutes. For the preparation of this cleanser, as we see, melt water is required, which the doctor obtains in the following way. He takes a clean pot or basin with a capacity of 3 liters, pours water into it and lets it settle from chlorine. Then boil for 45 minutes and defend. Drains the top layer and then carefully pours the middle layer into a clean vessel so as not to stir up the dirt at the bottom of the pan. The cooled water puts in the freezer for 5-6 hours. As a result, it again receives three-layer water. The top layer contains deuterium-2 (deuterium is a stable isotope of hydrogen, having an atomic mass of 2; its combination with oxygen gives "heavy water"), and the middle is white. It is just being used. Melt water has a 12-sided structure, and it is a good solvent for medicines.

History of the lemon.
Lemon - native rainforest Southeast Asia, where it has been cultivated for at least 2500 years. IN Ancient China and India knew well medicinal properties li-mun-ga - that's what the lemon was called there. In the East, lemon was used as an antidote for snake bites, as well as to prevent outbreaks of cholera and plague. Ibn Sina recommended it for sea fever, and also used juice treatment to relieve toxicosis in pregnant women. He also compiled a recipe for a medicine based on lemon juice that heals gonorrhea, which, having only slightly changed, has come down to our time.
Amirdovlat Amasiatsi writes about lemon as a universal remedy: “The best type of lemon is very yellow and large. And the one that is sweet stops the secretion of yellow bile and helps with anemia. Sour lemon removes freckles. If its juice is injected into the eyes, it will give them a shine. Its peel promotes beard growth, and its juice stops vomiting. He strengthens the stomach and aids in the digestion of food removes small and large worms. Lemon syrup helps with fevers».
However, people suffering from high acidity of gastric juice, gastritis of various forms, peptic ulcer of the duodenum and stomach need to be careful when using lemons and preparations prepared on their basis. In such patients, lemon can further increase acidity, cause heartburn, severe pain and cramps, and even vomiting. They can drink tea with lemon only after meals and not consume more than 1-2 slices per day.
Lemons are strong antimicrobial and antiseptic action. Lemons inhibit about 20 types of microbes and various viruses, in particular influenza viruses. For colds and infections of the upper respiratory tract and throat, it is good to use lemon along with diaphoretic teas from linden, raspberry, wild rosemary. Lemon juice is an excellent remedy for sore throats, it is also very useful for atherosclerosis, kidney stones, urinary and gallbladder, gout, rheumatism, fungal skin diseases, metabolic disorders, stomatitis. Lemons are used as an external medicine for fungal diseases of the skin; they also have such a wonderful property - they help to remove toxins through the skin, that is, they unload the kidneys.
At the beginning of the 20th century, in 1910, L. Gdansky's book "Treatment with Lemon Juice" was published in Pskov. In the same year and under the same title, a book by K. Drexler was published in St. Petersburg. Both of these authors were well aware of useful properties lemon juice. They also understood what is the main prerequisite for the occurrence of diseases and how, accordingly, juices can help here.
L. Gdansky wrote the following about the basis of diseases in his book.
“The causes of diseases are certainly varied; but, if you look at them more closely, it turns out that in general the foundations of these diseases lie mainly in the abnormalities of the existing life regime. If we discard all kinds of infectious diseases, sometimes independent of people, then all the rest certainly follow from human errors in relation to their body. We can safely say that a person is to blame for his illnesses and pays with suffering for a careless attitude towards himself.
... Usually we introduce into our body food products much more than is necessary to support our existence and in general to replenish the substances consumed by the body. This circumstance puts the body in unfavorable conditions, since it is not able to process excess food and gradually accumulates it in a somewhat processed form in various areas. human body. In no case can such reserves be considered a useful phenomenon: they can be compared with ballast, which impedes and slows down the cycle of physiological functions of the body, which in turn leads to diseases. Substances that are not sufficiently processed, the body is not able to remove, and they, accumulating over a number of years, decompose and disrupt the correct metabolism, causing ailments and premature fading of the body.
Lemon cleansing
All chronic diseases owe their origin to uric acid, gradually poisoning the body. We introduce this acid into the body together with the food we use daily and, no matter how small its quantities, but over the years they form significant accumulations. Accumulating in certain points of the body, uric acid causes various abnormal phenomena in the form of tumors, curvature of the joints, etc. In rheumatic and gouty people, these accumulations are noticeable under the skin even at a glance, and at present, medicine has come to the conclusion that gout and chronic rheumatism are diseases caused by the presence of accumulations of uric acid in the body.
When this became undeniable, the question of how to remove uric acid from the body, with the release of which the pain sensations should disappear by themselves, naturally came to the fore on the stage.
Further, this author writes: “The best remedy in this case should be considered a treatment with lemon juice, which does not require the patient to change location or even diet. If it is desired to speed up the treatment, it is still useful to adhere to certain dietary rules, which will only contribute to the success of the treatment.
L. Gdansky describes and explains the healing properties of lemon juice as follows: “Treatment with lemon juice, and especially when associated with diet, gives excellent results. After a few days, increased activity of the kidneys is observed, the urine becomes dark in color and gives a brick-colored precipitate, consisting of uric acid salts. At the beginning of treatment, the amount of precipitation is usually large, but decreases towards the end. This is indisputable evidence that the body, under the influence of lemon juice, intensively releases uric acid. In the end, the urine takes on an amber color, precipitation is not noticed and the urine remains transparent even after a long standing, which proves the complete absence of uric acid in the body.
Thus, we see that lemon can be considered a universal remedy that affects not just any specific ailment, but - what is important! - on the state of the body as a whole.
Lemon, its juice and zest, lemon seeds and lemon tree bark can be used to prepare various medicinal potions at home. They have different effects: anti-inflammatory, carminative, lowering blood pressure, antitoxic, curing anemia, expelling worms.
They used lemon not only for medicinal, but also for preventive purposes. In 1795, sailors in the English navy were required to take a little lemon juice daily to prevent scurvy. During a round-the-world voyage under the command of Admiral Krusenstern (1803-1806), none of the crew members of the Neva and Nadezhda ships fell ill with scurvy, since in daily diet sailors were included lemons.
High-society beauties used the healing properties of lemon with the help of its juice to get rid of freckles, whiten their skin.
Despite the fact that the fruits of the lemon tree are very sour in taste - they contain 5-8% citric acid - their regular intake neutralizes excess acid in the body. It is one of the most alkaline foods.
Light yellow essential oil is obtained from lemon fruits, which contains valuable substances, in particular phytoncides, which determine not only its pleasant smell, but also healing properties. Essential oil also found in the branches and leaves of lemon, and the glycoside citronine was found in the bark. The pulp of lemon fruits is rich in mineral salts, citric, as well as malic and other organic acids. The composition of the lemon also includes sugars (2-3%), vitamins C, A, D, group B, carotene. It contains pectins, flavonoids. Vitamin P was found in the peel of the fruit, and fatty oil and the bitter substance limonin were found in the seeds.
“The aroma of a lemon amuses the mind, peel and grains -? good for the heart, the pulp is an excellent food, and the juice quenches thirst,” says an ancient Georgian legend. What to add here? Now we know how to cleanse the body of toxins with lemons.
There is a cleansing of the body and recipes for specific diseases,
It remains to tell how to choose the best lemon, after all, this is especially important if you are going to use lemon for medicinal purposes.
The best fruits are oily, good-skinned and heavy for their size. Such a lemon is very juicy, with a minimum number of seeds. You should choose fruits of a rich yellow color, but not hard to the touch. Shriveled, thick-skinned fruits with rough skin or soft and flabby to the touch may be very overripe, withered, damaged or with rotten flesh. As a rule, lemons do not fall off on their own in the first year of life. If they are not cut yellow before winter, they begin to turn green again. In summer, their skin becomes very thick. In autumn, it turns yellow again, as if ripening a second time. But two-year-old fruits, despite their size, have fewer vitamins and other biologically active substances. Therefore, it is better to refuse large thick-skinned fruits - they may be old. It should also be taken into account that lemons, as a rule, are picked while still green; they cannot even be compared with ripe ones in terms of medicinal properties.
It is believed that it is best to store lemons in water, then they will always be juicy.
Do not buy lemons that have mold on them, because mold can only appear on lemons with mechanical damage. A spoiled fruit can also be recognized by the place near the stalk - if the fruit is spoiled, then it becomes discolored. And then the medicinal properties of lemon are completely lost.
