Doing a bit of research I discovered a site recommending eating and breathing more salt...it was ad heavy (for salt products of course). So I find the science to be questionable.

But it did raise a few questions.

1. Does breathing salty steam help relax bronchial passages?
2. Could my ridiculous craving for cashews be related to a need for salt? (salted cashews of course-I am pregnant, so cravings are frequent)

And on related research I once caught a 'infomercial' suggesting what heartburn sufferers needed was not less acid but more.... I haven't found real medical research on it yet. Does anyone know of any? (I only have it when pregnant)

And...can lemon water really help with chest congestion? (how? drinking and breathing are two different paths?) the reason I ask is cause I read it for a different issue (bloating) and tried it (I like lemon water) and find I cough less when I drink it.
