Celtic Sea Salt
Salt is essential for the survival of all living creatures, including human. It is needed to regulate the water content in our body. We often hear bad press about salt, and indeed table salt which is refined, is extremely unhealthy and toxic. What our body really needs is natural pure salt. Taking the wrong type of salt is detrimental to our health.
In fact, without the right kind of salt, our body will encounter many kinds of problems. Is it any wonder then, by taking table salt, our body is actually deprived of the real salt and minerals. Here's only a small shocking list of what can happen when our body lacks proper salt:
There are many types of salt
but I want to talk here about three types of the more popular salt.
Minerals and Trace Elements Found in Celtic Sea Salt
Among the live minerals and trace elements found in Celtic sea salt are iodine, iron, calcium, magnesium, manganese, potassium and zinc. The 84 trace minerals provide the necessary nutrients and protect the body from the harshness of sodium chloride that we consume from commercial salt.
The appropriate magnesium content ensures that unused sodium is quickly and completely eliminated from the body through the kidneys to prevent harm.
The Healing Virtues of Celtic Sea Salt
Celtic sea salt has tremendous healing virtues that have the exact opposite effects of refined salt. It helps to balance out and nourish our body with minerals that our body lacks. It is particularly helpful in helping with mucus elimination. Here are some conditions that Celtic sea salt is also good for:
Sinus and bronchial congestion: I have seen many times how Celtic sea salt when taken before sleep has helped the sufferer sleep through the night as it breaks up the irritating mucus, providing much relief.
Regulate blood pressure: We are right to say that salt causes high blood pressure but it is the toxic table salt that is the culprit. Celtic sea salt has been shown to actually normalize blood pressure. It literally goes around your body and 'scrounges' for the harmful sodium deposits and completely eliminates it from your body. If you have high blood pressure, pure salt will bring it down. But if you have low blood pressure, pure salt will bring it up. Only nature has been designed with the ability to do this.
Deeper and more restful sleep: When Celtic sea salt is taken with warm water before bedtime, it promotes a deeper and longer sleep that is both restful and refreshing. Nor does it cause you to wake up and wanting to urinate.
Water retention: We often hear that salt causes water retention. Again, this is only because the wrong salt was taken¾table/commercial salt. Celtic sea salt does the opposite by helping our body properly balance out the electrolyte minerals and releasing the retained water.
Kidney stones: Celtic sea salt has also been reported to actually dissolve kidney stones.
Building the immune system and aids healing: Celtic sea salt provides the rich minerals directly to our cells to enhance resistance to infections and bacterial diseases. It also helps our body heal quicker when there has been a surgery, sickness, burns, mental disorders, etc.
Prevent over-acidity in body: The rich minerals effectively eliminates unwanted sodium from the body, extracting excess acidity in the body, especially in the brain. The electrolytes are vital to the nerves for communication and information processing of the brain cells.
Helps control saliva: If you salivate (or drool) in your sleep, it could mean that your body is deprived of the right kind of salt, and that you are not drinking enough water. This condition may also lead to double chin as your saliva glands work doubly hard to lubricate your insides. Drink more water with Celtic sea salt to stop this condition.
Diabetics: Helps balance out sugar in blood in diabetics.
Muscle cramps: Providing essential minerals to the muscles and preventing muscle cramps.
Strong alkalinizer: Helps keep our body at the right pH. This is important as an over-acidic body creates many health problems and an endless list of degenerative diseases.
The most convincing fact
that salt is critical to life
Now that you know that table salt is harmful, remove it from your kitchen shelf and replace it with Celtic sea salt. Use Celtic salt for all flavoring just as you would in place of table salt.
Generally, you would need only 2/3 of the amount you normally use. For example, if the recipe calls for 1 tsp of salt, then just use 2/3 tsp and it would give your cooking sufficient taste and flavor. When cooking, add this pure salt at the end when you've turned down the heat, to prevent losing the nutrients in the heat.
For therapeutic use, increase on your water intake. Preferably at least 2 liter of water a day. But to be more accurate, check how much water you should drink a day. For every 8 oz of water, stir in ½ teaspoon of Celtic sea salt and drink. No, drinking Celtic salt water does not make you thirsty, only dead table salt makes you thirsty. Celtic salt is live food, and is nourishing to your body.
It is important that you increase on your water intake when taking Celtic salt as your body is very quickly eliminating toxins and water is needed to flush out the toxins through your kidneys. If your body is very toxic, rashes may appear. When this happen, just continue to take the salt with plenty water and the rashes should clear up pretty soon.
For maintenance of your health, just stir in ¼ teaspoon of Celtic sea salt for every 8 oz of your drinking water.
As in all good things, take Celtic sea salt in moderation.
