Is natural Himalayan crystal salt the same as white table salt?
There is a big difference between the “regular” refined table salt most people are accustomed to and natural, health-promoting salt. This difference can have a major impact on your health. Regular table salt is actually 97.5% pure salt (sodium chloride) and 2.5% chemical additives such as iodine, fluoride, calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, aluminum hydroxide, saccharine and others. Dried at over 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit, the excessive heat alters the natural chemical structure of the salt. What remains after raw salt is “chemically cleaned” is pure sodium chloride, devoid of any life-sustaining minerals. One can say that this salt is bio-energetically “dead”, because it does not project a specific energetic field around it (see pictures below). To keep this salt from sticking together and making lumps, chemicals are added. Then, to mask the bitter taste of these anti-caking agents, more chemicals are added. Dr. Haendel and other researchers suggest that our body recognizes white
