Pink Sea Salt

by | Feb 28, 2023 | Uncategorized

Pink Sea Salt is a coarse, unrefined type of salt that is mined from the Punjab region of Pakistan. This salt has a unique pink color that comes from trace minerals within it. It is often used as a substitute for table salt and can be part of halotherapy treatments, including sauna spas, salt lamps and body scrubs.

The Differences Between Himalayan and Table Salt

Both types of salt are made up of 98 percent sodium chloride, but they differ in terms of how they are processed. Table salt is heavily refined and often contains additives and anti-caking agents. On the other hand, Himalayan salt is unrefined and often contains 84 trace minerals that are missing from our modern diets.

Despite the differences in the way they are processed, both salts contain sodium and it’s important to monitor your sodium intake to avoid high blood pressure. Additionally, consuming too much sodium can raise the risk of kidney disease and other serious health conditions.

How to Use Himalayan Pink Salt in Your Kitchen

Himalayan salt is a finer granule than table salt, making it ideal for seasoning and cooking. It also works well for sprinkling over salads or on vegetables.

Some people use Himalayan salt to bathe in, as it helps soothe and moisturize the skin. This is because the minerals in Himalayan salt help balance the body’s pH levels and can improve digestion and respiratory health.

Himalayan salt is an alternative to table salt, which can be packed with toxic ingredients. The main difference is that pink Himalayan salt is naturally unrefined and can contain up to 84 trace minerals, which are missing from many people’s diets.
