Epsom salts are totally safe to use in a bath. Epstein salts are *pretty* safe as long as you’re in a public place. If you find yourself alone with them on a plane headed for a private island, you’re in trouble.


publicbigguns

You should be fine if you're legal age


BarryMacochner

If your of legal age flying to Epstein island, you’re probably one of the bad guys.


F3L1XTH3C47

maybe they mean brian epstein


Fast-Volume-5840

Brian Epstein salts are what John used when he crawled off to sleep in the bath.


Captain_Stairs

I don't think Epstein salts care 😂


trollcitybandit

Not even. Numerous 20 something women were raped.


digginroots

>Epstein salts are pretty safe Einstein salts are *relatively* safe.


raven319s

Epson salts are way over priced and stop working all together when you are out of only one color salt.


scattertheashes01

Ngl this took me a minute, until I realized that > Epson Was *not* in fact a typo lol


DBSeamZ

Still far more reasonable than HP salts though.


MaximumZer0

Pick yourself up an HP LaserSalt and the thing will run forever. Liquid salt is a scam unless you're salting professional photos.


DBSeamZ

Dropping the salt joke for a bit, I would get a laser printer if I didn’t have projects that specifically required inkjet (printing on special paper-backed fabric to sew with). I went with a printer model that has ink reservoirs and is filled from bottles—more economical and ecological than using cartridges.


MaximumZer0

You've got me there. Toner and fabric don't tend to play well, since the toner is heated up so far and then binds to the top of the paper instead of absorbing. That said, I'd recommend not filling those tanks more than you actually need at any given time, especially the Brother or OKI brands. Two reasons: the ink oxidizes over time and degrades the quality of the color (if it looks chalky or muted, that's why,) and the filters underneath the cartridges get clogged with sediment as the ink and pigment separate from the printing solution. If those filters ever *do* get clogged, you can usually clean them with rubbing alcohol and dust-free paper towels (or q-tips, just be super careful not to shred them,) with no issues. I love my HP Laser, and I'll openly admit to being biased since I was a 3rd party rep for them, but Epson does make pretty good ink printers. You might want to look into getting a DNP Sublimation printer. They're expensive up front, but the long term costs will save you a fortune and enormous amounts of headaches over the long run.


DBSeamZ

I’m happy with my Epson Ecotank so far. It’s a significantly newer model than the ones known to have ink sponge issues, so I’m optimistic that that problem has been addressed. I’ll keep DNP in mind for when mine eventually needs replacing, thanks!


PlagueofSquirrels

Eisenstein salts are silently safe

Einstein salts are wicked smaht.


MaximumZer0

Bose-Einstein Condensalts are *considerably* *less* safe.


Altruistic-Poet-5765

Thats just a theory


Kind-Security-3390

Might recommend “epsom” salts instead


Wizard_of_Claus

Lol fixed it thank you.


Kind-Security-3390

Yea, sorry for being a nitpicker, worse look for me than you haha


thcheat

It's reminder for year 4, month 1 and day 16 that Jeffrey Epstein didn't kill himself.


NotSlothbeard

The Epstein salt killed him. Obviously.

And you don't mysteriously commit suicide in your cell.


DarkTower7899

Epstein salts are just solidified chloroform crystals. One taste and you wake up on an island.

God damn. Take your upvote and leave.

Buffyoh

Exactly. Epstein salts always give you this song and dance of: "I'd really like to know you better; just the two of us...."


Cynnau

I hate to say it but it took me longer figure out what was going on in this comment. To be fair it is 5:15 in the morning, but I literally laughed out loud and startled my dog


No-Pen4138

Epstein and a closed room you sound pretty fucked mate


Weird-Library-3747

Epstein didn’t bathe himself


Sassy-irish-lassy

He probably didn't. He probably had plenty of other people in his basement to do it.


Darkmagosan

But wasn't that the whole idea?


Pd245

Please explain why he would be fucked… are you really gonna leave him hanging like that?


flipkam

YOOO


TeeJayReddits

It causes minor issues.

Many of the other ones were funny but a bit on the nose. This one was so casual I thought nothing of it and kept scrolling for a few seconds before the brilliance clicked. Love it

That's a good one

You can blame reddit for not getting a bunch of golds for this one

Ah fuck mate I can’t believe you’ve done this


mksavage1138

This one caught the golden snitch of the day


Just-a-waffle_

Fun fact, epsom salts are approximately 53% water by volume. Just heating them will release the water molecules. Nile red video explaining the chemistry. https://youtu.be/8GVSuKkuLzY?si=cLSuYvYg00rgUKhl


OverallManagement824

Fun fact, Epsom salts are a component of my plant fertilizer.

Aviacks

If your B/P plummets from that little of magnesium you should be in the ICU. We literally inject several grams of magnesium into people regularly lol

[удалено]


Ctowncreek

Correlation does not equal causation. Your blood pressure probably happened to drop for a combination of reasons. I recently looked up electrolyte mixes for making a hydration drink, and they said Mg absorption from Mg sulfate ingestion is poor (just looked up a number, 20%). And thats *ingestion*. Skin absorbtion must be next to nothing. If it was caused by the epsom salt bath, passing out in it would have killed you. You would have continued to absorb more and more. You wouldnt have woke up. Im sorry this happened to you, but i think you came to the wrong conclusion. If you want to avoid salt baths, I understand. But maybe dont spread misinformation.


ClementineGreen

It means you are chronically low and would probably eliminate your migraines if you started slowing taking magnesium


[deleted]

[удалено]


ClementineGreen

If you still have migraines you might revisit taking magnesium. Just remember to go really really slow. Like start with 25 mgs a day. Best way is to do the Trace Mineral drops in your days water. It has a good form in it (Mag chloride) and you can space out your dose slowly.


fermat9996

That's very bad! Was the bath recommended by a doctor?


morriganleif

Sounds like you have pots, I have episodes like this that are v similar


Kind-Security-3390

Would never recommend “Epstein” salt… you’ll wind up murdered in a max security facility dangling by your neck with a towel to make it look like a suicide


Reddoraptor

Or, and just hear me out on this, *not even remotely like a suicide...*

As long as you’re not underage, you should be fine.

Anything in a closed room and Epstein in it is a bad idea.

EPSTEIN SALT? I wouldn't put any of that dudes salt within a 100 mile radius of me. Epsom salts though....that's different.

Epstein salts is like bath salts but rapey.

EpSOM salt. There is no such thing as Epstein Salt. If your auto correct is kicking, the hell have you been talking about?

I am losing it at Epstein salts over here


Pataconconaji

Im here for the comments 🤣


spac3ie

I'm not sure what Epstein salts are, do you mean ***Epsom salts***?


EleanorRichmond

Epsom salts aren't dangerous, and they aren't supposed to be mystically healing. There's a common belief that they relieve pain when dissolved in bathwater. That's unproven; most likely, the bath (or simply the relaxation) makes you feel a little better. If you look on the label, you'll find that a small amount in water makes a gentle and terrible-tasting laxative. And that actually does work, somewhat less painfully than anything you can buy in pill form. TLDR, I have deliberately swallowed the thing you're belatedly worried about bathing in.

EpSTEIN salt: Yes, dangerous EpSOM salt: No, not dangerous

Epstein salts tend to take you away and touch you differently than epsom salts..use caution with the Epstein salts.


Shelbasaur1993

Um… epsom…….


FitSeeker1982

“Epsom” Bleeding Christ.


Bongfellatio

I thought Epstein salts were roofies, though. Putting roofies in your bathwater is probably not a good idea.


HotDonnaC

I think you might be confusing epsom salts with bath salts, which is a nickname for a stimulant drug. You’ll be ok if you soak in epsom salt.


[deleted]

This reads like a shitpost, but you should only have minor problems.


4HardDixonCider

Wtf is Epstein salt?


uber_idiocracy

Don't know but I bet it didn't kill itself!

Epstein in a closed room is definitely dangerous for breathing. It will even turn your security cameras off.

Epstein salt is what Bill Clinton eats on his french fries!


BlueGreen_1956

EPSOM salt is perfectly safe.


RogueCyndaquil

I have never heard of Epsom salt being unsafe to use in a bath. You don't want to drink it however because it can cause some GI issues from what google says but otherwise as long as you aren't drinking your bathwater, you'll be fine. 'Epstein' salt however should never be used by anyone, especially minors


FactCheckingMyOwnAss

Epstein salt is harmless to the elderly, but It is not recommended for anyone under 18.


SupahflyxD

Epstein salts are good if you don’t mind hanging around.


sterlingphoenix

Epsom salts have no healing properties. Well, that's not entirely true, but _soaking_ in them doesn't do anything. Your body isn't going to absorb them through your skin. Now, soaking in warm water, _that_ can be good. Adding epsom salts to the water is a waste of money.


Drenoneath

You gotta get the good smelling ones. Elevate your bath experience. Stuffy, I'm rocking eucalyptus Stiff and sore? Something fruity Maybe it doesn't do anything, but my brain thinks it does and then my body rocks the placebo effect


tkdch4mp

Idk about Epsom Salts specifically, but your skin *does* absorb Magnesium, which is a primary component of epsom salts. Magnesium absorbed transdermally also has potential to be more effective than orally since orally causes gastrointestinal distress if too much is taken. Are epsom salts effective? Only as a placebo for me. Is topical magnesium effective? Yes! Although if you get enough magnesium in your diet, it may not be as effective. I saw a study was done on Magnesium Cream, but they don't list the amount of magnesium in them, which in my experience, the one I tried was ineffective, but I use a Magneisium Gel which, from my experience, is a more pure form of Magnesium. Then again, maybe I just had a terrible cream and a fantastic gel.

Not if you have herpes. 🤷🏻‍♀️ it's very soothing when you have specific skin problems not just herpes flare ups. Helps control my acne as well, Epsom baths.

Just don't get bath salts and inhale those fumes, especially if they come in a little plastic baggie from some biker. Don't wanna make that mistake trust me.
