Salt Your Way to Health, 2nd Edition Paperback – January 1, 2006

Extremely informative! Makes it's case against refined salt and for unrefined. I've switched to unrefined and haven't looked back.

This is an excellent book that breaks through the unscientific narratives. Highly suggest it.

Everyone should read this book and his other books ...

I am a qualified Nutritionist and Naturopath and I appreciate reading books that are rich in meaningful information, scientifically credible, and at the same time being easy-to-read so I can recommend them to patients where applicable. This book certainly qualifies on all those counts. I think the other reviewers have covered this book nicely. I read this book after reading "Salt" by Mark Kurlansky which is about the history of salt over the centuries. The 'bottom line' is that many people are not getting enough salt causing dehydration, and this insufficiency of water in the human body has all sort of consequences such as thicker blood (ie blood with high viscosity)and reduced metabolic function caused by low body fluid levels. This can have all sorts of consequences such as fatigue, increased colds and flu's, and hundreds of other ailments. The old line that salt is high in sodium and sodium increases blood pressure is a very simplistic explanation and one wonders how the population was ever duped into believing it.There are three forms of salt. Firstly, there is pure 100% sea salt which is 85% sodium chloride and 15% other minerals, and this is the salt that you can consume with confidence. Secondly, there is white sea salt which is only the sodium chloride part with a tiny bit of trace minerals remaining and the rest of the minerals have been removed and this byproduct rich in minerals is sold separately under the name of Magnesium Oil, Nigari, or the original 'Old English' word Bitterns. The 3rd form of salt is the cheap one we buy in supermarkets that is 100% Sodium Chloride with some added additives to make it free-flowing plus some iodine.To understand the health benefits of salt, you should also understand what Magnesium Oil is, because its the valubale part of ocean salt that gets removed. I have written a short paper that may interest readers that can be found in my Health Folder https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B4XGKNybHkRkb1lZT2N3VTgyXzQ&usp=sharing

I tell all my friends about this book as it has changed my life for the better.Taking sea salt every day (1 teaspoon diluted in a cup of water) has cured my adrenal fatigue in less than 6 weeks, which is the optimum time. If you are interested, it can take 6 weeks to a year to recover from adrenal insufficiency. Mine was really bad before I took sea salt, and I used to shake in the mornings. I had a blood cortisol test and it was off the scale in terms of being so low.I had adrenal insufficiency about 15 years ago and it took me three long months to recover then, it was awful. So when I got it again, I knew I had to act swiftly.The other thing taking sea salt has done is mineralise my bones. I take Celtic Salt Mineral blend every day and my tensile strength has increased no end. I also take transdermal magnesium and Vitamin D3 (high doses), Vitamin K2 (Green Pastures X-Factor) and Sea Kelp by Solgar (best one I've found).I saw a friend recently whom I hadn't seen for about 2 years. She was so surprised at the improvement in my health, she said "whatever you're taking, please list it out because I want to take them too".I told her the books I'd read to put my health back on track: This one, plus The Calcium Lie, Calcification, Miraculous Results of High Doses of Vitamin D3, Transdermal Magnesium oil, Could it be B12 and various other anti-cancer websites etc.She asked me how I could manage to read so many in such a short space of time, I said I put that down to addressing Choline deficiency and combatting Glycation generally, she looked dazed - lol!Oh, and the other thing that Sea Salt cured was my increasing Acid Reflux. That is a thing of the past now, what a relief that is for my whole family.Basically once I noticed improvements in my health, I decided to tackle all aspects of metabolism. I am scared of getting metabolic syndrome so I've decided to put my health in order, before I become a medical emergency.The last highly beneficial thing I did for my health was to conduct a Gallbladder/Liver flush, as I'm really interested in tackling cholesterol now. Since doing the flush I've managed to halve my dose of progesterone cream dose, as my symptoms and mood have improved. I think the amazing liver flush procedure has improved my complexion and energy levels no end, wish I'd done it years ago. The book on it by Moritz is available on Kindle.The other thing I've tried now is Apple Cider Vinegar. I was doing really well with that but had to temporarily stop because it melted my temporary filling on this (horrible) tooth that is having so much work on it this Autumn. Can't wait till that's all finished so I can go back to lovely Apple Cider Vinegar, mixed with honey and added to a glass of cold water - such a refreshing way to start the day!I feel like the inside of my body is like a huge house I have to clean out and tidy up, to get ready for the next 30 years, if you know what I mean!Believe in health, it is wonderful !

This book explains how dangerous regular table salt is because all the good stuff has been refined away. Due to the information in this little book I now use unrefined salt on everything that I cook or eat out at restaurants. It is very educational and scientific. This is a great book for people who want to make a small step toward good health.

I received this book early this morning. I have begun reading it and halfway through. Extremely satisfied and will recommend it to my family and friends. Thank you

Well researched and documented. Gave me a new perspective on the role of salt in my health.
