Salt is a mineral that your body needs. Salt is stored in your bones. When you don't have enough salt, the body takes it from the bones and when it is depleted even from your bones, you can drop dead in just one day. The problem is people take refined salts and restaurants use refined salts. Most people do not know what type of salt is good. I add half a teaspoon of salt with my breakfast daily and do not have pressure problems. The good salts to use are Maldon Sea Salt, Celtic Sea Salt, Redmond's Kosher Real Sea Salt, Icelandic Flake Salt, Fleur de Sel Salt and Unprocessed Rock Salt. This is the reason why God made the sea salty. Just taste your blood and it is salty. Even my pet parakeet on my shoulder will drink my sweat because it knows how important it is. In the old days, people barter trade using salt. Caffeine is a huge salt waster and coffee drinkers must add salt to their meals daily to stay healthy. It is Big Pharma that wants people to suffer from hyponatremia. Please remember that SODIUM IS AN ELECTROLYTE!
