Looking for a good "Sea Salt" to use, Any Freeper Suggestions? ~Vanity

Posted on 10/17/2013 10:26:24 AM PDT by GraceG

I am looking to replace the salt shaker in my house with a "Salt Grinder" type salt shaker and would like any freeper suggestions on what brands or types of sea salt may be the best as well as any warnings on what I may want to avoid.

Here is are some of the per-requisites that i would like with my salt grinder.

1. The Sea salt Must contain Iodine 2. The Sea salt Must contain Selenium 3. The Sea Salt MUST be free of any heavy metals or toxic metals.

I have heard good things about Himalayan sea salt and other "pink sea salt"

Just wondering if any fellow freepers have any suggestions or have done the research.

It is cheaper to buy by the pound.

When we got the new salt blocks for the cows on on the farm my brother used to chip off a chunk from the block and dared me to lick it and I always did, then the dare went to eating a small portion of it, which I did!

Growing up on a farm makes one do strange things..

Sel Gris De Guerande - by Le Tresor - 5 lb. Bag (Fine)

Unrefined. Has all of the trace minerals concentrated from the ocean. Most salt labeled "sea salt" has been refined and contains nothing but NaCl. If it's white, it's no good.

I was going to recommend Redmond from Utah, as well...

All the trace minerals without the man-made toxins...Comes from ancient dried up sea beds before that bad stuff was present in sea water...

And...Fron the good ol’ USA...

I had a teacher in grade school who would drink water with a drop of iodine in it.

I bought some iodine to try that and I did it for about 2 days, but I discovered I am not iodine deficient but adrenal impaired and now taking a low dose of cortisol.
