The Pristine Salt

The Pristine Salt

Sea salt is a vital detoxifying and balancing agent. It hasn’t changed for eons, which means no contamination----that can’t be said for other types of salt. Sea salt contains all the minerals your body needs: calcium, copper, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, and iron. They’re all there, along with many, many others. Your body needs a daily supply and a full complement of these minerals.

Iodine also occurs naturally in sea salt, and we know that when people don’t get iodine, their thyroid malfunctions. So it’s critical that we take these minerals together in the form of sea salt so our bodies can regulate properly.

In a 1997 article in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Dr. David McCurran stated that with adequate daily intake of sea salt, which contains all vital elemental minerals (mainly magnesium for proper heart regulation), we have salt that will not raise blood pressure; but in fact, may actually lower it.

Sea salt helps the body detoxify on a cellular level. Every organ in the body requires salt to run properly because it relates to electrical potential. Vital life-giving communication is sent from the brain to the body through the nervous system. The heart and skeletal muscles require magnesium, which gives you an idea how important this element is. The sea salt aids in the normal functioning of the cellular pump known as the sodium/potassium pump, which again is indirectly responsible for bringing nourishment into the cell and expelling waste out of the cell. As that residue is filtered through the kidneys and excreted in the urine, energy levels naturally rise.

Alarmingly, table salt is poisonous to the nervous system. Ninety four percent of the world’s sodium is used commercially for shellacs and abrasive cleaning agents. Table salt is created by heating up ocean salt to extract sodium chloride for its commercial use as an abrasive; whatever is left over is what you find on the typical dinner table. When you take in sodium chloride by itself, it’s a toxic poison to the body. That’s why salt causes blood pressure to rise. You put a toxin in your body, and arteries immediately constrict. Your heart has to work harder, which causes blood pressure to go up.

The bottom line is that table salt will destroy your energy levels while sea salt will improve it. If you take a quarter teaspoon for every quart of water within an hour or two of rising, and on an empty stomach, it will rehydrate and detoxify you.
