She has lamps in every room of the house made from this, table salt, and Himalayan cooking salt too. Today i noticed she also bought the inhaler type of salt she puts in the water for humidifier in the house. She had been using Himalayan pink salt since 2005. She has been diagnosed with Hypertension lately, 200/ 110 and the lowest was 160/100. I told her to cut down on her salt intake and she did and lately she had lowered her blood pressure to 130/90. I warned her of her excessive belief in the Himalayan salt for to me all salts are Sodium Chloride. This is the reason I got to read this blog on the negative side of the Himalayan salt. I believe that people will go on any length to make money from anything we find in Nature and the well financed company will do all sorts of advertisements and so called research to sell the products. HOW DO WE KNOW THAT THE SAME PRODUCT THAT WE RECEIVE BY MAIL from them TODAY IS THE SAME RESEARCHED PRODUCT THAT THEY TESTED WHEN THEY FIRST INTRODUCED it to the market.

I appreciate it. <br />I had forgotten to mention in my previous statement that when chemicals are are measured in % or ppm they do it by weight and not the % of the actual chemical. This in chemistry is called percent by mass. (there are other measurement types which do not include %) A simple example is having a 100g sample of something that contained 16% oxygen and 84% hydrogen because oxygen's approximate weight is 16g for one mole-6.022...*10^23 molecules- of oxygen you only have 1 mole of oxygen however. because hydrogen's approximate weight is 1g per mole there are 84 moles of hydrogen. <br />I am just adding to the conversation.lover of science and faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01258853194171033720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9593302.post-33216250048364633422011-07-31T11:37:58.607-07:002011-07-31T11:37:58.607-07:00Salt News is a commercial publication from a compa...Salt News is a commercial publication from a company that sells salt including Himalayan pink salt. I do not see that they offered more than one analysis.<br />You also did not refer to the fact that regardless of amount (i.e., PPM) fluoride is cumulative to that it stays in the body, regardless of form. <br />The other consideration is the sodium content. It is factually substantially higher in this salt than compared with Celtic salt. Sodium and fluoride do cause damage to the body even though we may need some. In the case of fluoride the need is infinitesimal.<br />I'm not arguing, just providing food for thought.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02073710851277872074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9593302.post-55506772863277733832011-07-31T11:23:55.651-07:002011-07-31T11:23:55.651-07:00I am Heath.

It is true that there is a difference between chemicals when bonded. however, many people forget to look at the most important factor, concentration. Let me give a common example. Floride toothpaste (which was mentioned earlier) when someone rinses the toothpaste out of their mouth, they have leftover residue of floride still in their mouth. the body can "flush out" these chemicals in small enough concentration that it won't harm the body. Going to the spectral analysis that is a proven scientific test. http://www.saltnews.com/chemical-analysis-natural-himalayan-pink-salt/ the toxic chemicals are in PPM or parts per million. a concentration so low that the body absorbs only what it needs from it and disposes of everything else. It does contain numerous (I didn't want to count) chemicals that our bodies need. Now, can we get along and not attack each other?lover of science and faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01258853194171033720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9593302.post-10350465171104207582011-07-26T04:44:30.312-07:002011-07-26T04:44:30.312-07:00Good to know you had improvement.

I've been doing this for about a year. I went for my annual health check-up yesterday and my GP informed me that my kidneys are now functioning at 97% whereas last year they were only functioning at 66%. <br /><br />There is a comment above that states how a kidney specialist is afraid of Himalayan salt because 'it works' and he would be out of a job if everyone started taking it. I had wondered how my kidney function could have improved because it has always been my understanding that organs deteriorate with age and now I know differently. The proof is in the pudding! ;o) <br /><br />As a matter of interest, I purchased my salt from a 'suspect' UK supplier so I can only comment that I feel this salt is as good as the rest.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9593302.post-39704822601781435132011-06-23T22:08:00.405-07:002011-06-23T22:08:00.405-07:00Interesting post.

Himalayan salt IS sea salt, but it comes from the sea as it existed 250 million years ago. ANY sea salt sold today is either processed into oblivion or polluted with countless substances...this goes for Dead Sea, Celtic, and any other salt on the market. Himalayan salt is pure, with an inherent natural molecular matrix which the human body can process with ease.<br /><br />The argument of flouride is sheer ignorance, as the absorption of flouride is dependent on the the substance it is bonded to. Sodium flouride, calcium flouride, potassium flouride, etc are all different animals, so to speak. The few references provided are garbage and misinformation, seriously.<br /><br />Himalayan salt is REAL natural salt, it is natural. It benefits the body rather than burdening it. Nothing can disprove this, it is a natural fact. No other salt compares in benefit and purity.
