<p>As a youngster I recall many events where either a dog or a cat<br />
was licking me with great satisfaction.  I found myself enthralled by<br />
these experiences where I seemed to shapeshift into a living salt dispensor<br />
for these animals&#8217; licking delight and nourishment.  It was as though<br />
each of these animals spoke, &#8220;Oh thank you dear human<br />
friend for the gift of your salty leg!&#8221;</p>
<p><font size="5" face="Gill Sans"><br />
All beings of nature simply require nutrients<br />
vibrant with nature&#8217;s wisdom that are pure<br />
and unaltered to thrive.<br />
</font></p>
<p><br/><br />
Salts naturally occurring in the ocean and on land are unrefined and contain<br />
an immense array of essential trace minerals as well as the natural,<br />
pure form of sodium chloride.  </p>
<p>Table salt is highly refined, chemically cleansed, and obtrusive to the<br />
human body ecology. Refined salt is designed in a lab with the intention of<br />
altering it&#8217;s physical appearance which results in salt that is not pure<br />
sodium chloride and no longer co-creates harmoniously with the body.<br />
What occurs here in essence is a struggle within the system<br />
and degeneration often results.</p>
<p>Sodium chloride or salt is an integral element here on our<br />
planet referred to by many to be one of the essences of all life.<br />
It is one of the five sacred geometrical forms that occur when<br />
energy materializes into crystals.  These five forms are<br />
the Octahedron, Tetrahedron, Cube, Dodecohedron<br />
and Polyhedron.  A crystal of salt is a cube.  </p>
<p>Why is this significant?  Well, crystals emit energetic information<br />
that are essential to life here on planet earth and throughout<br />
our infinite universe.  A crystal cube symbolizes the solid,<br />
stable and grounding elements of earth which are<br />
necessary for life to feel balanced.</p>
<p>The natural elements found in land salts and sea salts are identical<br />
to the elements that our bodies are created from.  Our bodies are<br />
an ocean of a fluidly flowing solution of salt and water.  <br />
In a vital body ecology the blood is 0.9% &#8211; 1% salt.</p>
<p>Maintaining the salt to water ratio is essential for the body&#8217;s<br />
extra-cellular fluids, assisting in sending nutrients into the cells,<br />
regulating blood pressure and blood fluid volume all while keeping<br />
the pressure balanced in the lining of the blood vessels.</p>
<p><font size="5" face="Times Roman"><br />
Salt is essential for&#8230;&#8230;<br />
</font></p>
<p>	•	Cell hydration</p>
<p>	•	Modulating electrolyte levels inside and outside our cells</p>
<p>	•	Healthy Intestines</p>
<p>	•	Healthy Kidneys</p>
<p>	•	Healthy Adrenal Glands<br />
<br/></p>
<p>Salt, specifically sea salt, is imperitive for bowel health&#8230;.<br />
For optimal hydration levels of the intestines<br />
a balance of fluid and salt is required.  </p>
<p>Too little salt, or hyponatremia, is one of the most common stimuli<br />
for electrolyte disharmony and constipation.  Sodium can be depleted by<br />
sweating or urinating excessively, experiencing emotional release through<br />
crying and even by drinking too much water. </p>
<p>For children, blending a natural salt with honey,<br />
agave or yacon syrup in the purest water available is a phenomenal<br />
strategy for maintaining healthy hydration levels.  The<br />
taste should be equal in saltiness and sweetness.  </p>
<p>In my personal journey of vibrant health I have embraced many<br />
spiritual, raw food, live food, vegan and vegetarian communities.<br />
Here I have had the direct opportunity to immerse myself in food,<br />
culture, and the eating habits of those on an ascended, awakened path.<br />
I have witnessed in even these settings an imbalance where the<br />
sugar intake is too high and salt intake too low.  So weeks,<br />
months or years of a person thriving their health in a<br />
committed nutritional path can unexpectedly shift<br />
to experiencing cravings for foods such as pizza<br />
or corn chips and wonder where in the world<br />
this is coming from.  &#8220;What happened to<br />
my committed nutritional path?&#8221;<br />
they may ask&#8230;  </p>
<p>I passionately believe salt is the remedy here.<br />
Our body temples need an equilibrium of salty, bitter and sweet properties<br />
to be vibrantly healthy.    </p>
<p>My research into this realm of salt reveals that sea salt,<br />
specifically Celtic Grey Sea Salt contains the highest trace mineral content.  <br />
Himalayan Crystal Salt is high in mineral content as well, though<br />
not as high as the Celtic Sea Salt.  They are both tremendous<br />
nutritive additions to your optimal health strategy and I<br />
encourage you to explore them both for yourself.</p>
<p><font size="5" face="Gill Sans"><br />
&#8220;Sea water is the most ancient natural solution<br />
on earth and, in my opinion, it is the<br />
most ideal physiologically.&#8221;<br />
