Problem is, if you are having trouble retaining salt and fluids, you are probably having trouble retaining other minerals as well. I would think about the addition of other minerals in addition to the salt. How about Bamboo Salt. I usually get excellent quality from Jang Jiang herbs at 425-467-0667 talk to Grace. However, at the moment it is on backorder as it is made by Daoists in South Korea. If any one knows of any other source please let me know. Also possibly Irish or Dead Sea salt although I don't know as much about this internally. Bobbi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 How about real salt - not processed salt? I use celtic sea salt but have heard that himalayan salt is really good. The body does need some salt. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 Processed salt....but...it has nothing in it but salt and residue from the processing. Mercury in the amount found in celtic sea salt is not hazardous. In a message dated 5/19/2008 9:37:30 P.M.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 I like the flavor or the pink salt, but having been dx'd as bi-polar, the lithium content in celtic sea salt is what I need....after six months of celtic sea salt I lost the diagnosis.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 David, Some of the pink salts do indeed come from Pakistan however there are some that actually come from the Himalayan Mts. as well.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 There is no discrepancy between being from Pakistan and being from the Himalayas. K2 is in Pakistan, as are a good number of the other higher mountains in the Himalayan range. If you have trouble associating something healthy with the urban media images that you've been viewing from Pakistan, just remember that Gilgit and Hunza are also in Pakistan - near the mountains.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 I've read the assay on "real salt" ..... it really can't compare to Celtic Sea Salt: http://www.mnwelldir.org/docs/nutrition/salt.htm http://www.healthfree.com/celtic_sea_salt.html (shows more of an assay) http://www.curezone.com/foods/salt/Celtic_Sea_Salt_Analysis.asp this one is even better....but sadly, they don't mention the amount of natural lithium salts. I contacted the people who import this to the US (The Grain and Salt Society) and they could not tell me why it was no longer included in the analysis. However, the difference between you and some raving maniac behind bars can be just a few cents of lithium. It is not an optional nutrient....it's essential to good mental health.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Hi, I have a question about salt cravings. Ever since I was a little girl, I always had voracious salt cravings. I used to spill salt in my hand and lick it directly from the hand. I used to chew on bits and pieces of play-doh. I can stay away from sweets for extended periods of time. I do miss them initially, but can quickly adopt to the absense of them. However, if anyone tries to take salt away from me, I feel like I can justifiably shoot them. And there is sodium in everything! I am switching to the Himalayian Pink salt which is MUCH healthier...complete minerals remain intact. Anyone have any ideas on how I can correct this? Many thanks, Melissa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
