Add a little salt

Salt, in its natural, unrefined form, is essential to your health and vitality. There are two types of salt: Table salt and unrefined sea salt. There is a major difference between the two and if you’ve been putting salt into one category, you may be consuming the wrong kind. Most people don’t realize that there are two forms of salt, which is basically why salt has earned such a bad rap.

Unrefined sea salt is collected through evaporating ocean water without additional processing. Sea salt is rich in trace minerals and is an essential part of a healthy diet. Table salt, on the other hand, is often mined from underground salt deposits. It is highly processed which eliminates the salt’s natural trace minerals and nutrients. Table salt is what you find in processed and packaged foods and is of no benefit to your health. Table salt is processed through intense heat, which eliminates its natural healing elements. The added chemicals and additives leave you with a invaluable substance that is added to food only for taste.

Your diet can reflect more wholeness by eating foods in their whole and unrefined form. Adding good quality salt to your diet, means cutting out the table salt by eating less processed foods. Himalayan pink salt is one of the purest of salts and matches the elements in our body. The only salt you’ll find at Urban Remedy is the good stuff. Many of our meals and snacks use the highest quality Himalayan pink salt not only to enhance flavor, but also to deeply nourish you. Here are some ways that salt supports the health of your body:

• Transports nutrients in and out of your cells.
• Promotes a healthy pH balance in your cells.
• Regulates the body’s water content
• Controls blood pressure
• Boosts healthy brain function and creative capacity by increasing the glial cell in your brain.
• Stabilizes blood sugar.
• Supports a healthy libido.
• Creates the fabric of our blood plasma, lymph and cell fluid.

Consider the salt content in your diet and evaluate the quality of the salt you consume. Eating well doesn’t mean eliminating the flavors you love, it means choosing flavors wisely and knowing the difference between real vs. fake foods.
