Salt: An Eye Reliever
This article provides a way one can make salt useful, that is, salt can be used as an eye reliever.
I am glad to share this useful information with you. Normally, when something hot like pepper gets into our eyes, we would want to wash our eyes with water and it usually takes a longer time to get relieved.
Well, you can now be relieved in less than a minute or better still in a twinkle of an eye by just licking a pinch of cooking or table salt and that does the trick. I’ve tried it several times and it worked. You may not have to wash your eyes with water until they are sore anymore… It’s safe and it works!

This is a very interesting and potentially useful piece of information. I would like to know how and why it works and the origins of this tip!

I wish that I had known this when I accidentally rubbed chili pepper in my eye! Wonder why salt has such a healing effect ~ I know that it can also relieve a sore throat and soothe the pain of a bee sting. I hope that I won’t have to put this remedy to the test, but I’ll be sure to try it if necessary.

Eyes they say is an integral part to our body, i think this piece of information is highly welcome and should be develop most especially in the third world countries where bad water, dust is causing blindness.

We really have to commend the writer of this article. The much I know that salt is used for is seasoning and preservation. I did an experiment to prove what the writer said and it really worked. This is an added knowledge to what I already know.
Thanks for sharing your idea

whao!This is interesting!I have always known salt to be a seasoning for food.However,I was a really curious to know how true it is that salt can be used as an eye reliever. Hence I deliberately dipped my finger in a chilli sauce and touched my eye with it,then i licked a pinch of salt.The result was amazing.It worked!I am still amazed and commend the researcher for this finding.Salt is another visine!

I realized that you can make your own saline solution after years of using spit or plain water. Now the saline costing seven dollars a bottle, when I am broke I make my own saline with sea salt and water. I never store it though. You can afford to make fresh each day.
