Girls have been using salt and water solution to prevent pregnancy since forever. They use this solution in the absence of every other remedy.

This MYTH is quite popular among ladies but it is unfounded. Sperm can survive in salted water you know.

You are just increasing your risk of developing high blood pressure, heart diseases and kidney failure or damage.
◇ drinking SALT and WATER does not prevent or cure HIV…. if that was true would we have HIV infected people? Would anyone be afraid of HIV???.
