 Adding salt to your food is generally frowned upon--that dreaded sodium is no good for your body--but that doesn't mean you should throw out your salt shakers. According to Mark's Daily Apple, here are some interesting ways to use salt: - In your shoes: Putting a pinch of salt in your shoes will help reduce odor. Who knew?
- On your hands: Mix some salt with white or malt vinegar and rub it in your hands to get rid of the smell of chopping garlic or onions.
- On your apples: Submerging apple slices in a solution of cold salt water will keep them from going brown without compromising taste.
- On bites: A paste of salt and water will help relieve itch and pain associated with bee strings and mosquito bites.
- In your coffee: A small pinch of salt will take away any bitter taste in your java.
