MYTH: Salt is bad for you.

THE TRUTH: Table salt is horrible…. highly heated and processed it has no nutritional value and the chemical components can raise blood pressure, cause fluid retention and generally lead to poor health. But don’t let this confuse you.. A good, pure solar dried salt is capable of providing a pure gastrointestinal cleanse and can even serve as a natural, gentle laxative.  That’s right. The best part is – as it gets to work cleaning up your organs, it spreads vital trace minerals  through your body. And you desperately need those crucial minerals to survive and thrive… 

The minerally rich soil that past generations were lucky enough to take for granted has sadly become a thing of the past. Bad farming practices, heavy chemicals and pesticides have stripped our soil of those essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium that should be in abundance in our fruits and veggies. 

Also absent are vital micronutrients called Trace minerals,  only needed in small amounts but nature’s catalysts crucial in activating the enzymes necessary for all metabolic processes of life: Zinc, manganese, chromium, cobalt, selenium, iron, iodine and copper are crucial to improve brain and nerve function, promote cellular energy metabolism, support bones and muscles, cardiovascular health  and maintain a healthy electrolyte balance.

Case study:

One of my clients brought her one year old to see me and showed me his back. It was covered with large sores, which were itchy and causing pain and discomfort to the poor little chap. After conducting a health history of the toddler and his mother, I found that he was deficient in the trace minerals found in solar dried sea salt, green leafy veggies, grass fed butter, sea vegetables such as chlorella and kelp, wild caught fish, avocados and veggie or bone broths.  He needed something gentle to help detox the liver, and then flood the body with those vital trace minerals. So I suggested some dietary changes, but most importantly turmeric and a good salt. The sores cleared up in a few days!

A regular question I hear is “why would such a young child be suffering with this?”

Babies absorb their nutrients through the placenta in the womb of course. So they benefit from all the good nutrients we eat, but unfortunately they can also pick up some of the toxins that may have built up over a long time, from the mother or/and father. Those toxins can include chemicals from the water, air, and those in our food from pesticides etc. Alcohol and the use of prescription drugs such as antibiotics all contribute to toxic build up of course.

Here’s one I like. The salt is moist due to the natural brine.
