Benefits of Himalayan Salt | Not all salt is created equal

Let's talk about salt, the good, the bad and why all salt is not created equal. There are many different kinds of salts to choose from. Iodized salt, un-iodized salt, sea salt, Himalayan salt...
 Many people don't even realize that certain salts, like table salt, can be very harmful to our bodies. Most importantly table salt is not pure and contains chemicals like iodine, absorbents and even sugar, which our bodies don't need.
The typical table salt has no nutritional value and is lacking in minerals. The human body has a difficult time disposing of all this salt naturally and in a healthy way and in return to much consumption of  table salt can turn into a whole mess of unnecessary health issues.
You can read more about the step-by-step process of what table salt can do here.
 
Let's talk about a salt that is actually good for you when ingested properly and in the correct amounts.
Himalayan Salt also known as (pink Himalayan salt) is the Cadillac of salts not only because of the many health benefits but also the fact that it is found naturally and has been untouched by toxins and pollutants. Himalayan salt contains the same 84 natural minerals and elements found in the human body and is much easier for the human body to absorb and digest. It is another one of those little gifts that we have been blessed with and if used properly, can aid in a healthy diet. I love finding little jewels like this.  
 
There are so many benefits to using Himalayan salt over the ordinary table salt
some of them may be:
 
  • Controlling the water levels within the body, regulating them for proper functioning
  • Promoting stable pH balance in the cells, including the brain.
  • Encouraging excellent blood sugar health
  • Aiding in reducing the common signs of aging
  • Promoting cellular hydroelectric energy creation
  • Promoting the increased absorption capacities of food elements within the intestinal tract
  • Aiding vascular health
  • Supporting healthy respiratory function
  • Lowering incidence of sinus problems, and promoting over-all sinus health
  • Reducing cramps
  • Increasing bone strength
  • Naturally promoting healthy sleep patterns
  • Creating a healthy libido
  • Circulator support
  • Promotes kidney and gall bladder health when compared to common chemically-treated salt

  • For more information on Himalayan salt, you can check out the link that I shared previously here as well as this site.
    These sites do a great job at explaining the science behind this amazing natural salt.
    My goal is to share this in hopes of making others aware of the dangers of table salt, as well as offer education on safe salt-alternatives.
    Next time you are at your local grocery store, try and find some Himalayan salt to incorporate into your next meal. If you can't find any at your grocery store, you can find it at any health foods store or at the educational link that I previously shared.
    Thanks for stopping by!
     
    Blessings to all
