But I finally started taking a trace mineral supplement, in addition to the unrefined sea salt, and found it made a noticeable difference, so I definitely appreciate the importance of trace minerals. It is a totally refined product in which all of the trace minerals from the sea have been removed. This kind of refined salt has only been available for several hundred years and confusing it with real salt has produced one of the nutritional emergencies of the modern age. The natural way this collects, though, has a layer of dirty brown salt at the bottom and pretty white salt at the top. Would that we humans got as good food as we give our animals.
Mineral salt is mined from thousands of feet below the surface in areas of old evaporated seas.
It is light tan in color with little darker flecks. It has ALL of the trace minerals that exist in the sea in the exact proportion our bodies use every day. Thanks for the explanation. Thanks for the explanation. Thanks for the explanation.
