Method of removing impurities and addition of iodine requires highly processing and refining. During this process most of the minerals are stripped out, anti-caking/anti-clumping agents and other chemicals are added to the salt which is toxic for liver and kidneys. 

Increase in salt consumption can cause a rise in blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, kidney disorders, diabetes, acid formation and other major health issues. Also can lead to water retention which is the sole reason from weight loss frustrations and body puffiness.

So are you wondering if not table salt then which salt can be healthy?

Let’s discuss about some natural salts which are safe and has amazing health benefits:

Sea salt/rock salt is better than table salt, unrefined and contains vital nutrients.

Rock salt is not very expensive. It improves appetite, aids in digestion and soothes heartburn. Helps stabilize blood pressure by maintaining a balance of high and low blood pressures. Rock salt can be used to stimulate your body's metabolism and greatly improves body's immune system etc.

Other best option is Pink Himalayan salt which is considered to be the most pure form of whole salt on earth. It contains 84 trace minerals with many health benefits. Detoxifies body, improves sleep, Balances body pH, and relaxes muscles & mind, Soothes away soreness, in contrast to regular salt lowers blood pressure, Improves blood circulation and healthy arteries and many more there on the list.

I am personally no more using table salt and have switched to Himalayan salt. I am sure by now you too must have decided to quit table salt and move to other healthier options.
