Bath Salts - Are they all the same?

[Guest guest]

Good Day Everyone,

 

I thought that was a good question because I have

been researching it and have just confused myself

further. A very easy thing to accomplish for me.

 

Dead Sea Salts - Full of minerals

Coarse Sea Salts are what I am looking for, so

what should I be looking for? Do all the

different sea salts that are being sold have the

same mineral content? Or is what I am seeing on

most sites like the one below marketing hype?

 

 

 

According to one site: The difference between

Kawar Dead Sea Salt and salts from other seas.

 

The Dead Sea, which lies 1300 feet below sea

level in the Jordan Valley, is the lowest natural

place on Earth. During the 3 million years from

its origin, the salt proportion in the water has

risen as a result of the fast water evaporation

in a dry climate. While salt content of other

seas reaches about 3%, the Dead Sea salt

concentration is almost 32%. An even more

astounding fact is the composition of the salt

itself. While common sea salt contains about 97%

sodium chloride (NaCl), ), the Dead Sea salt

contains only 12 - 18% of this mineral. The rest

is composed of Potassium, Magnesium, Bromide and

other minerals important for the improvement of

cell metabolism and the regeneration of the

organism.

 

 

TIA,

 

Cheryl

Hi Cheryl,

 

Different varieties of salt can indeed have different mineral

contents. Refined salts have most of their trace minerals removed and

are mainly just sodium chloride, but unrefined salts tend to have a

wide variety of trace minerals, and depending on their sources some

more so than others.

 

Dead sea salts are known for having a high mineral content, but there

are other salts that also have high mineral contents.

 

Here is a cool page about halite - the source of common salt

I hope that helps.
