Sea Salt vs. Table Salt

Sea Salt vs. Table Salt
which one is healthier for us?




We always hear about table salt is to stay away from salt because it is fattening and always leaves you bloated. What about sea salt is that any healthier for us to consume? While if you cannot live without salt I suggest that you switch to sea salt. Sea salt is more organic and has many minerals that keep our electrolytes in balance. Keep away from table salt suggests the website of Health benefit of Water because table salt contains "aluminum silicate." Aluminum silicate is toxic to our nervous systems according to a study done at UCLA it is a leading cause of Alzheimer's disease. Trying buying some unrefined sea salt which is more organic and healthier and companies have not stripped it of the natural minerals. I suggest you switch over to sea salt to reap the health benefits of a longer life.
