Benefits

Scientific research has demonstrated the positive effects of Himalayan Crystal Salt on a myriad of body functions.

• Re-mineralizes the body with 84 minerals and trace elements essential to health.
• Ionic/colloidal form assists in cellular absorption of minerals (angstrom size)
• Replenishes electrolytes and helps to balance the body’s pH.
• Significant positive changes in respiratory, circulatory, organ connective tissue and nervous system functions.

Salt has many other functions than just regulating the water content of the body. Here are some of the more vital functions of salt in the body:

    1. Salt is most effective in stabilizing irregular heartbeats and, contrary to the misconception that it causes high blood pressure, it is actually essential for the regulation of blood pressure - in conjunction with water. Naturally the proportions are critical. 

    2. Salt is vital to the extraction of excess acidity from the cells in the body, particularly the brain cells. 

    3. Salt is vital for balancing the sugar levels in the blood- a needed element in diabetics. 

    4. Salt is vital for the generation of hydroelectric energy in cells in the body. It is used for local power generation at the sites of energy need by the cells. 

    5. Salt is vital to the nerve cells' communication and information processing all the time that the brain cells work, from the moment of conception to death. 

    6. Salt is vital for absorption of food particles through the intestinal tract. 

    7. Salt is vital for the clearance of the lungs of mucus plugs and sticky phlegm, particularly in asthma and cystic fibrosis. 

    8. Salt is vital for clearing up catarrh and congestion of the sinuses. 

    9. Salt is a strong natural antihistamine. 

   10. Salt is essential for the prevention of muscle cramps. 

   11. Salt is vital to prevent excess saliva production to the point that it flows out of the mouth during sleep. Needing to constantly mop up excess saliva indicates salt shortage. 

    12. Salt is absolutely vital to making the structure of bones firm. Osteoporosis, in a major way, is a result of salt and water shortage in the body. Twenty-seven percent of the body's salt is in the bones. Osteoporosis results when the body needs more salt and takes it from the body. Bones are twenty-two percent water. Is it not obvious what happens to the bones when we're deficient in salt or water or both?!  

    13. Salt is vital for sleep regulation. It is a natural hypnotic. 

    14. Salt is a vitally needed element in the treatment of diabetics. 

    15. Salt on the tongue will stop persistent dry coughs. 

    16. Salt is vital for the prevention of gout and gouty arthritis. 

    17. Salt is vital for maintaining sexuality and libido. 

    18. Salt is vital for preventing varicose veins and spider veins on the legs and thighs. 

    19. Salt is vital for reducing a double chin. When the body is short of salt, it means the body really is short of water. The salivary glands sense the salt shortage and are obliged to produce more saliva to lubricate the act of chewing and swallowing and also to supply the stomach with water that it needs for breaking down foods. Circulation to the salivary glands increases and the blood vessels become "leaky" in order to supply the glands with water to manufacture saliva. The "leakiness" spills beyond the area of the glands themselves, causing increased bulk under the skin of the chin, the cheeks and into the neck. 

    20. Sea salt contains about 80 mineral elements that the body needs. Some of these elements are needed in trace amounts. Unrefined sea salt is a better choice of salt than other types of salt on the market. Ordinary table salt that is bought in the super markets has been stripped of its companion elements and contains additive elements (totaling approximately 2-2.5% by volume or weight) such as dextrose (Dextrose, a sugar used to stabilize, provides iodide stability by preventing oxidation of the potassium iodide to free iodine.); calcium silicate (anti-caking) to keep it powdery and porous; and potassium iodide.
