Many people are confused about salt and on the right, so your doctor and health professionals say that you reduce salt intake to reduce the risk of developing hypertension, heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure. On the other side of the fence, many gourmet chefs and holistic experts argue that salt is good for you and necessary for life.
The American Medical Association (AMA) and the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) claim that Americans consume increasing amounts of sodium, up to 6000 milligrams per day, instead of the recommended daily allowance of 500 to 2000 milligrams per day, These high amounts, in the form unfriendly to the human body and without any additional beneficial benefits, lead to serious health problems. Sodium, which AMA and CSPI have in mind, is sodium, found in table salt.
There are several differences between table salt and salt salt.
Table Salt is a poison that has nothing to do with natural salt salts. Table salt is cleaned in the same way as white sugar, white flour and white rice. Table Salt is chemically purified, purified and discharged at a temperature of more than 1200 degrees Fahrenheit. Excessive heat changes the natural chemical structure of salt, which creates a potential hazard to the many health problems in your body. What remains after treatment is 97.5% sodium chloride and 2.5% chemical substances, such as moisture absorption, toxic iodine and fluoride. In addition, your table salt often contains dangerous preservatives that should not be indicated on the packaging. Calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate and aluminum hydroxide are often added to increase the ability of table salt to action. Aluminum is a light alloy that is deposited in your brain - a potential cause of Alzheimer's disease.
Sodium chloride is an unnatural chemical form of salt, which your body recognizes as something completely alien. This form of salt is found in almost every canned / processed food you eat, and we Americans consume a lot of processed food. In fact, 90% of the money Americans spend on food is for processed foods. Therefore, when you add more salt to your already salty foods, your body gets more salt than it can get rid of. Like food, table salt is completely useless and can potentially act as a destructive poison. In order for your body to assimilate the crystals of table salt crystals, it must sacrifice a generous amount of energy.
Sodium chloride from table salt disrupts the fluid balance and constantly overloads your elimination systems, which can impair your health. When your body tries to isolate an overdose of salt, you usually expose it to water molecules that must surround sodium chloride in order to break them down into sodium and chloride ions to help your body neutralize them. To do this, water is taken from your cells, and you must donate perfectly structured water already stored in your cells to neutralize unnatural sodium chloride. These results are in dehydrated cells that can kill them prematurely.
For every gram of sodium chloride that your body cannot dispose of, your body uses twice as much water to neutralize salt. Eating normal salt causes excess fluid in the tissue of your body, which can contribute to:
o Unhealthy cellulite
o Rheumatism, arthritis and gout
Kidney and Gallbladder Stones
When you consider that the average person consumes 4,000 to 6,000 mg of sodium chloride daily, and heavy users can take up to 10,000 mg per day, it is clear that this is a serious and common problem.
Salt Policy (possibly sidebar)
So why didn't the FDA ban chemical treatment of table salt or set limits on salt for processed foods?
1978 year. In 1978, CSPI called on the FDA to impose restrictions on salt.
1982 In 1982, the FDA promised to act if the food industry did not lower sodium levels on its own. Since then, according to the CSPI, sodium consumption has increased, not decreased, and the agency has done nothing.
2003 In 2003, the Joint National Committee for the Prevention, Detection, Evaluation and Treatment of High Blood Pressure, or JNC 7, caused a 50 percent reduction in sodium intake — a goal that CSPI called on the FDA to fire.
2005 - In 2005, after 25 years of false launches and dragging by the Food and Drug Administration, the CSPI sued the FDA to regulate the salt, but the court ruled that the CSPI would have to file another application to the agency. New CSPI legal registration with the FDA requires the agency to consider salt as a food additive for regulatory purposes, as opposed to the ingredient that the agency designates as “Generally recognized as safe”, or GRAS. The agency has more authority to regulate food additives, including the authority to set upper limits or require special labeling for this supplement. CSPI asked the agency to set upper limits for salt in various categories of processed foods and reduce the daily cost or DV for individuals from 2400 mg to 1500 mg of sodium per day. In a statement, the CSPI notes that several government agencies have called on Americans to reduce their salt intake and even the FDA itself.
2005 confirmed its conclusion that sodium has an adverse effect on cardiovascular disease.
The current CSPI petition to the FDA was also sent to Secretary of Health and Human Services Mike Leavitt, with accompanying support from organizations including the American Nursing Association, the American Public Health Association, the American College of Preventive Medicine and the International Society for Hypertension in Blacks. Prominent physicians and signatories include Dr. Carlos Camargo from Harvard Medical School, Dr. Steve Havas from the University of Maryland School of Medicine, Dr. Jeremiah Stamler from the Feinberg University School of Medicine, Dr. Myron H. Weinberger from Indiana University Medical School and Dr. Jackson T. Wright of Cleveland University Hospital.
2006 In June 2006, the American Medical Association (AMA), our doctors, added their voice to the war against salt. They are now calling on the FDA to abolish “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS) salts and develop regulatory measures to limit sodium in processed and restaurant products.
“To be honest, the FDA is more interested in the racetrack of a new drug therapy for high blood pressure on the market than improves the diet of Americans, so they do not need drugs,” said CSPI executive director Michael F. Jacobson. “Improving food supply by gradually reducing the sodium content in processed foods would have caused many Americans to rush to expensive medical care.

Whole Salts
Whole salt is salt, which is natural because it is found in nature and is not purified or chemically processed by humans.
Sea salt
Many people believe that sea salt is a healthy alternative to table salt, but this is no longer the case. Oceans are used as repositories for harmful toxic poisons such as mercury, PCBs and dioxin. Reports of oil spills polluting the sea are becoming more frequent. When about 89% of all sea salt producers now process their own salt, today's sea salt is simply not as healthy as it used to be. If you looked into a microscope in sea salt, you will see that it has irregular and isolated crystal structures that are disconnected from the surrounding natural elements. Thus, although many vital minerals can contain, they cannot be absorbed by your body unless the body uses tremendous energy to revitalize them. The net profit of your body is small compared to the large loss of energy.
Salt or Rock Salt
Ground salt or rock salt is also a poor source of salt. While natural rock salt approaches integrity and is more valuable than industrial table salt than a biophysical as well as a biochemical perspective, it does not matter much. The elements contained in rock salt do not have sufficient compression to be included in the crystalline web, but are only attached to the surface and in the gaps of the crystal structure. This is a reasonable pressure that brings the elements into a colloidal state - where your cells can easily absorb them. The valuable elements found in rock salt are useless because your body cannot absorb and assimilate them.
Himalayan Crystal Salt
This salt is more than 250 million years old and is the purest, highest grade of natural salt available on Earth, and is absolutely not polluted by any toxins or pollutants. This salt is mined by hand and washed by hand and is known as “white gold” because it contains eons of stored sunlight. Together with pure spring water, the Himalayan crystal salt offers all the natural elements that are absolutely identical to the elements of your body - the very elements that were originally found in the “primeval sea”. Since the ideal crystal structure of a crystalline salt is balanced, it is not isolated from its inherent mineral elements, but is associated with them in a harmonic state. This means that the energy content in the form of minerals can be easily metabolized by your body. When you use this salt, it has a vital energy effect. Your body receives optimal net profit with zero energy loss. It is very difficult for your body to absorb too much crystalline salt, as there are powerful and effective feedback loops that regulate this process. Natural crystalline salt always has a balancing effect and does not contribute to high blood pressure, like typical table salt. You can find this salt on the shelves of your local health food store for about $ 7.00.
Containing all 84 elements found in your body, the benefits of the natural Himalayan crystalline salt include:
1. Adjust the water content through your body.
2. Balancing excess acidity from your cells, especially your brain cells.
3. Balancing blood sugar and reducing aging.
4. Assistance in the generation of hydroelectric energy in the cells of your body.
5. The absorption of food particles through the intestinal tract.
6. Help in cleaning mucus and mucus from the lungs - especially useful for asthma and cystic fibrosis.
7. Acts as a strong natural antihistamine and helps clear the accumulation in your sinuses.
8. Prevention of muscle cramps.
9. Strengthening your bone structure - Osteoporosis can occur when your body needs more salt and removes it from your bones.
10. Sleep regulation is a natural hypnosis.
11. Maintaining libido.
12. Prevention of varicose veins and vascular veins in the legs and thighs.
13. Stabilizing irregular heartbeats — in combination with water, it is really important for regulating your blood pressure.
Himalayan crystalline salt can also be used for therapy. When you take a “pickle bath”, healthy Himalayan salt minerals penetrate your skin in the form of ions. This stimulation will cause the natural growth of cells in your layers of living cells and benefit all.
Taking a pickle bath with Himalayan salt is especially recommended for those who:
o Various skin diseases.
o Rheumatism and joint diseases.
o Mode of postoperative care.
o Gynecological diseases.
o Recurrent infections
o Severe insect bites, blisters or wounds.
o skin irritation from poisonous oak, ivy, or sumak.
