The Misconception about Salt
We have all been taught to avoid or reduce the amount of table salt we consume, and for good reason. In today's modern world, table salt usually refers to sodium chloride, a highly refined and heavily processed substance. Medical literature provides evidence that the over consumption of sodium chloride (table salt) could be harmful. In its natural form salt is not sparkly white or free flowing. Salt that is unrefined has a pinkish or grayish tint because the minerals have not been removed. As it turns out, refined salt is produced primarily for the chemical industry, as sodium chloride is a necessary ingredient for the processing of many chemicals. Only 4 % of the refined salt produced is diverted to the food industry. It is made for the chemical industry, not people!
What’s wrong with table salt?
"Table salt is highly refined sodium chloride. The majority of the other 70-74 elements that occur in natural sea salt or rock salt have been eliminated. This leads to a one-sided overload of sodium chloride that in turn leads to all the well-documented undesirable effects of diets that are high in refined salt. Table salt can cause the body to retain water which can cause swelling, edema, and cellulite. "1 ounce of ingested salt holds 3 quarts of water or 6 pounds of excess bodily water and fluids ....."* This is the swelling and bloating associated with refined table salt. This makes the body work more on eliminating rather than living and maintaining! Crystal salt is a nutrient source so it can be taken into the cell and used.
Once refined, table salt is energetically dead and the body needs to use its own life force to somehow assimilate this substance. It is also inferior for building stable bones (one third of the sodium in the human body is stored in the bones). Refined salt is extremely yang or rigidifying and structuring according to Traditional Chinese Medicine. This correlates to the findings of western medicine that show that excessive table salt can lead to hardened deposits in the body, stiffening joints and blood vessels. Sugar and alcohol are extremely yin or energetically softening. If we regularly consume table salt, cravings for sugar and/or alcohol can be amplified.
The Biggest Misunderstanding In the History of Dietary Nutritional Science Is all about Salt
Homer called salt a “divine substance”. Plato described it as “especially dear to the gods”. The Celtic word for salt is “holy” or “sacred”. From the beginning of recorded history, salt was exalted and synonymous with virtue. Jesus refers to his own as, “The salt of the earth, light of the world”. Salt was so precious that spilling it was considered a bad omen. This may make you wonder how this vital sacred food has become so undesirable and generally considered bad for you. Depending on where the salt came from and how it was produced, it would vary in color, taste and cleanliness. It started with the industrial revolution, when certain industrialists learned how to chemically clean (*see below) and purge salt at very high temperatures, thus removing the important minerals that were considered impurities, yielding a pure white sodium chloride. People loved it, it was sparkly clean and white and with the addition of a few other chemicals to prevent caking, it would pour easily. This "pure" sodium chloride no longer has the mineralizing and balancing effects of natural salt and medical literature abounds with evidence of the harmful effects that result from over consumption of this refined salt. The foundation of life lost it's mineral balance and does not support life as it is naturally intended. Help us reinstate.
The Double Whammy! Get refined sodium chloride (table salt) out of your life / Embrace the ionic mineralization of up to 72 minerals in the crystal power matrix of crystal salt.
This picture shows an electron microscopic magnification of table salt. Only sodium chloride is present. The uniform cubic shapes indicate very low electrical energy in contrast to the variety of shapes found in crystal salt. This type of salt dehydrates the cells and is recognized by the body as a burden that needs to be eliminated. This picture shows an electron microscopic magnification of regular sea salt from a health food store. Although advertised as natural, the “sea salt” is as refined and low in electrical energy as table salt, causing the same array of problems in the body. This picture shows an electron microscopic magnification of dry crystal salt. The large chunks are naturally occurring sodium chloride crystals and the smaller particles consist of other elements in a crystalline structure. Salt with this structure hydrates the cells and charges the bodily fluids with spare electrons, providing antioxidant protection and life energy.
Mineral Mountain Salt contains natural essential minerals derived from an ancient sea bed deposit. Having been subjected to heat and pressure under the Himalayan Mountains for 250 million years, its structure has formed into a perfect crystal, the way coal becomes a diamond. Unlike processed table salt, which only has two elements, sodium and chloride, Mineral Mountain Salt contains a balanced blueprint of up to 72 minerals and trace minerals which has formed the basis of all life.
