What a disbelieving skeptic *you* are. Get with the program. I bet you didn't even read down to the middle of the page wherein this bit was written: The late French scientist Dr. Alexis Carrel kept a chicken heart alive for over 27 years by having the pulsating heart IN A SOLUTION OF SEA SALT, i.e. isotonic seawater. Dr. Carrel voluntarily ended the experiment after a third of a century, having proven that living cells can have physical immortality. Isn't that good enough proof for you of the wonderful health benefits of seasalt? As for me, I've re-written my will to have *my* heart put into a beaker of seawater upon my death (if not sooner). While we are at it, a big THANKS to Russell for pointing out this wonderful page.
