What’s wrong with table salt?
"Table salt
is highly refined sodium chloride. The majority of the other
70-74 elements that occur in natural sea salt or rock salt
have been eliminated. This leads to a one-sided overload of
sodium chloride that in turn leads to all the
well-documented undesirable effects of diets that are high
in refined salt.
Table salt can cause the body to retain water which can
cause swelling, edema, and cellulite. "1 ounce of ingested
salt holds 3 quarts of water or 6 pounds of excess bodily
water and fluids ....."* Table salt also comes with
additives such as aluminum hydroxide, sodium ferro cyanide,
calcium phosphate, stearic acid and others. Some of these
can be toxic. When ingested the body recognizes table salt
as a poison and accumulates water in and around the cells to
protect them from this invading substance.
This is the
swelling and bloating associated with refined table salt.
This makes the body work more on eliminating rather than
living and maintaining! Crystal salt is a
nutrient source so it can be taken into the cell
and used.
Once refined,
table salt is energetically dead and the body needs to use its
own life force to somehow assimilate this substance.
Energetically, dead sodium is abundant around cancer cells. It
is also inferior for building stable bones (one third of the
sodium in the human body is stored in the bones). Refined salt
is extremely yang or rigidifying and structuring according to
Traditional Chinese Medicine. This correlates to the findings
of western medicine that show that excessive table salt leads
to hardened deposits in the body, stiffening joints and blood
vessels. Sugar and alcohol are extremely yin or energetically
softening. If we regularly consume table salt, cravings for
sugar and/or alcohol are amplified. I have personally
witnessed how replacing table salt with crystal salt
has helped many people overcome sugar cravings and binge
eating of sweets." -------Christian Opitz
The
Biggest Misunderstanding In the History of Dietary Nutritional
Science Is all about Salt. How did this happen?
Homer called
salt a “divine substance”. Plato described it as “especially
dear to the gods”. The Celtic word for salt is “holy” or
“sacred”. From the beginning of recorded history, salt was
exalted and synonymous with virtue. Jesus refers to his own
as, “The salt of the earth, light of the world”. Salt was so
precious that spilling it was considered a bad omen. This may
make you wonder how this vital sacred food has become so
undesirable and generally considered bad for you. Depending on
where the salt came from and how it was produced, it would
vary in color, taste and cleanliness. It started with the
industrial revolution, when certain industrialists learned how
to chemically clean (*see below) and purge salt at very high
temperatures, thus removing the important minerals that were
considered impurities, yielding a pure white sodium chloride.
People loved it, it was sparkly clean and white and with the
addition of a few other chemicals (aluminum hydroxide) to
prevent caking, it would pour easily. This "pure" sodium
chloride no longer has the mineralizing and balancing effects
of natural salt and medical literature abounds with evidence
of the harmful effects that result from over consumption of
this refined salt. The foundation of life became what many now
consider to be the foundation of disease and death. Help us
remove this scourge from our lives.

This picture shows an electron microscopic
magnification of table salt.
Only sodium chloride is present. The
uniform cubic shapes indicate very low
electrical energy in contrast to the
variety of shapes found in crystal salt.
This type
of salt dehydrates the cells and is
recognized by the body as a toxic burden
that needs to be eliminated.

This picture shows an electron microscopic
magnification of regular sea salt
from a health food store. Although advertised
as natural, the “sea salt”
is as refined and low in electrical energy
as table salt,
causing the
same array of problems in the body.

This picture shows an electron microscopic
magnification of dry crystal salt.
The large chunks are naturally occurring
sodium chloride crystals and the smaller
particles consist of other elements in
a crystalline structure. Salt with this
structure hydrates the cells and charges
the bodily fluids with spare electrons,
providing antioxidant protection and life
energy.
