HIMALAYAN SALT

Did you know that Himalayan Salt, in contrast to standard kitchen salt, is a 100% pure natural salt that can offer many health benefits? This unprocessed or unrefined natural salt contains at least 84 minerals and trace elements that are essential for the proper functioning of our body including calcium, potassium, magnesium, sulfur, zinc and iron.

The only salt that the body can really digest, absorb and use is unrefined sea salt or rock salt. Our body consists for the most part of water and salt. In addition to water and oxygen, salt is indispensable and essential for the body: the interplay of water, salt and minerals forms the basis of our health. Himalayan Salt is an unrefined salt and completely pure in nature, it has retained all its original elements and what is just as important: Himalayan Salt is fully absorbable!

Common kitchen salt often only contains sodium chloride and added iodine. It tastes salty, but adds very little to our health. Moreover; sodium raises our blood pressure. Table salt is processed very heavily, so that the minerals are lost.

Commercial table salt consists on average of 97% to 99.9% pure sodium chloride and is completely stripped of most minerals, with the exception of sodium and chloride. It is then bleached, cleaned with chemicals and heated at extremely high temperatures. The iodine added to table salt is almost always synthetic, which is difficult for our bodies to absorb. It is treated with anti-caking agents that prevent the salt from dissolving in water and clogging in the salt container. These same agents then prevent the salt from absorbing in our own body, leading to a build-up and deposition in the organs. This can cause serious health problems. Too much processed salt can also be the origin of, among other things, high blood pressure and cardiovascular diseases.

Himalayan Salt has traditionally been regarded as particularly precious and medicinal in the area of ​​origin. According to tradition, it comes from the primeval water at the time of the creation of heaven and earth. Deep in the interior of the Himalayas, this primeval water was transformed into a salt crystal in which this creative power is stored. This salt myth appears to correspond wonderfully with the scientific facts. Life originated in the water, the so-called primal soup. The primordial soup or primordial sea contained the nutrients of life, the elements that also make up our bodies. The Himalayan salt comes from the dried up parts of the primeval sea and contains the vital elements in their original composition and proportion.
