Why
should I care about what kind of salt I buy? If
you ever heard
someone say, "well, let's see if you're worth your salt!", you were
listening to an ancient saying that came from a time when people were actually
paid in salt. Salt was used as money. Why?
Because historically, salt was extremely important to everyone's diet. it was
an accepted fact. Salt contains a combination of essential trace minerals not
found anywhere else. It balances many body functions with precision. Did
you know this little known 'salt' fact?
The word salary goes back to the Latin word that originally denoted a 'allowance
given to a Roman soldier for buying salt' or a 'salt allowance'. This
was 'Salarium,' a derivative of sal, 'salt.' Salt being in former times a valued
commodity over which wars were fought, rather that taken for granted as it is
today. It soon broadened out to mean 'fixed periodic payment for work done,' and
passed in this sense via Anglo-Norman salarie into English. Source:

Today,
for the most part, we use processed salt. Those precious minerals and trace
elements are now stripped out in a processing plant. Salt
processors and advertisers have convinced us that we should be more concerned
with the white bleached look of the product and lower costs rather than in its
actual nutritional content. Why
choose Celtic Sea Salt®? - It's
a whole food, presented as it is in nature
- It
contains a variety of balanced nutrients
- It's
harvested by hand using a centuries' old Celtic tradition of evaporation
to leave its minerals in tact but supported by modern quality control standards
- It
tastes better than conventional table salt and doesn't leave your body
craving essential minerals
- NO
more searching for salty snacks loaded with table salt that don't fulfill
your body's needs
- You
can use more without any health worries or without losing flavor
- You
will get essential nutrients that support your body better
- Gourmet
chefs use this salt for its fine quality and incomparable taste
- In
1991, The French Ministry of Forests and Agriculture gave its most honorable
"Superior Quality Food" mention to Celtic Sea Salt®
Back
to top Why
does the harvesting method makes a difference? Gathered
and harvested near the coast of Northwestern France where the ocean water is rich
in a variety of minerals makes Celtic Sea Salt® superior to other salts.
The
salt is channeled into clay ponds where the sun and wind evaporate the water
leaving a rich mineral brine. A salt farmer uses wooden tools to speed its
drying and helps the salt crystals form before packaging takes place. By
contrast the everyday table salt we usually see and use is washed and boiled.
It is then mixed with iodine, bleaching agents, and anti-caking agents
to create a purely white, free-flowing product. Even many sea salts you see in
health food stores have been boiled and washed, which ends up removing minerals
and trace elements. Why
else is Celtic Sea Salt® different? Each
and every year, this salt is: - Analyzed
by an independent research laboratory to assure its valuable nutrtional content.
- Shown
to be safe to eat.
- Proven
to have a lower in sodium and chloride level than traditional table salts,
so it's healthier.
- Demonstrated
to contain a mineral and trace element content is much higher than table salt
to provide you body with essential nutrients.

February 1996 Dr. West says:
"Today,
health claims are getting wilder and wilder. None of these claims changes the
most fundamental truth about good health--namely, that lifestyle changes with
the right kinds of nutritional supplements, attention to your environment, exercise,
examination of your body’s structure (i.e. spine, neck, pelvis), pure water, the
right kind of salt (we use only Celtic Sea Salt®), and a positive mental attitude
are the things that make up good health." From
Health Alert by Dr. Bruce West | How
does the nutrient value of your table salt compare with Celtic Sea Salt®? The
nutrient amounts given below are from one pound of Light Grey Celtic Sea Salt®.
With ordinary processed table salt, you need to watch your salt intake. But
you could probably use 1-3 teaspoons of Celtic Sea Salt® a day. By
doing so, you will consume minuscule amounts of some of the minerals and trace
elements given. The
amounts are shown in percentages. The percentage amount of each mineral and trace
element remains true no matter what quantity of Celtic Sea Salt® is used. Back

Celtic Sea Salt®against your regular table salt. You will never use that crystalline
white "other" salt any more! I have been using this tasty salt for over
