A friend mentioned yesterday getting some Himalayan Salt. Intrigued,
I looked it up

You want waffle -

http://www.mercola.com/forms/salt.htm

"With the use of rigorous advertising, the salt industry is successful in
convincing you there are actually health advantages to adding potentially
toxic iodine and fluoride to salt. In addition, your table salt very often
contains potentially dangerous preservatives. Calcium carbonate,
magnesium carbonate"

but

"The renowned Frezenius Institute in Europe analyzed the Himalayan Crystal
Salt and proved that it has an amazing array of important trace minerals and
elements including potassium, calcium and magnesium that help promote a
healthy balance by maintaining fluids and replenishing your supply of
electrolytes whenever you sweat heavily. (This salt does not supply iodide,
a necessary nutrient.)"

Haha, classic hypocrisy. If those fat-cat capitalists put it in, it's
poison. We have it in ours, but we love you (yeah, right) so it's OK.
Oh gimme a break, please

BTW, anyone recall "rigorous [salt] advertising" ?

"Your table salt is actually 97.5% sodium chloride... Dried at over
1,200 degrees Fahrenheit, the excessive heat alters the natural
chemical structure of the salt"

So....it's not NaCl anymore ? I think it probably is. Just doesn't have
any dried yak piddle or Sherpa spit in it

"When you use pure Himalayan Crystal Salt, you receive 250,000,000
years of accumulated energy"

Wow. Don't let the North Koreans find that out or they'll be mining
it for warheads

Fools and their money ........
