When reading a recipe or product labels, choose unrefined sea salt whenever possible. Regular store salt is made chemically rather than mined. Sea salt is the only natural salt available today. Regular salt only has the sodium.
Salt is mentioned many times in the Bible as a seasoning and staple ingredient.
Our bodies need salt. But the excessive amounts of salt being added to food products today is damaging to our bodies. This was perfect, because our bodies are designed to eliminate excess potassium and hold onto sodium. But modern processing and preserving techniques have produced the reverse ratio, so most diets are usually quite low in potassium and extremely high in sodium, predisposing people to top killer diseases, such as high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, stroke, and cancer. People from different ancestral heritages require different amounts of these minerals.
