I thought salt was bad for you?
Most people don’t realize that salt is essential for life – you cannot live without it. However, most people simply don’t understand that there are enormous differences between the standard refined table and cooking salt, and natural health-promoting salt.*
Why is Himalayan Crystal Salt better than white table salt?
Believe it or not, table salt is actually 97.5% sodium chloride and 2.5% chemicals, such as moisture absorbents and iodine. These salts are dried at over 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit, and the excessive heat alters the natural chemical structure of the salt. pHresh salt™ is far superior to traditional iodized salt. It’s made from Himalayan Crystal Salt that is millions of years old and pure, untouched by many of the toxins and pollutants that pervade other forms of Sea Salt. It is known in the Himalayas as “white gold”.*
