Himalayan Salt of The Earth

It is a fact of life that both humans and animals and even some plants need salt in their daily diets in order to survive.

It is often stated that alongside air, earth, water and fire, salt should be labelled as one of the necessary basic elements to life.
If you read the history on salt, you will find that nations and peoples have clashed in wars about salt.

Roman soldiers were paid an allowance to buy salt, the origin of our salary.

The crystalline structure of Himalayan salt was formed as a result of a sedimentation process over millions of years, giving it unique biophysical and biochemical characteristics. Table salt is typically 99 percent sodium chloride, which you really should not be putting in your body.
