I. Edible Salt
Edible Salt also known as Sodium Chloride. Salt is produced
from salt mines or by the evaporation of seawater or mineral-rich spring water
in shallow pools. It is most widely use in cooking and at the table, salt is
present in many processed foods. Too much sodium in the diet raises blood
pressure and increases the risk of heart attacks and strokes. The World Health
Organization recommends that adults should consume less than 2,000 mg of sodium
(5 grams of salt) per day. However due to modern dietary and fast food, we
consume more than we suppose. High salt intake is associated with a
significantly greater risk of stroke and total cardiovascular disease in
susceptible people.
II. Sea Salt
Sea salt is salt produced from the evaporation of seawater.
It is used in cooking and cosmetics. It is also called bay salt or solar salt. Like
mineral salt, production of sea salt has been dated to prehistoric times. Some
cooks believe it tastes better than salt from mines. However, there is little
or no health benefit to using sea salt over other forms of sodium chloride
salts.
According to The Mayo Clinic and Australian Professor Bruce
Neal, the health consequences of ingesting sea salt or regular table salt are
the same, as the content of sea salt is still mainly sodium chloride. However,
a study found the amount of trace elements, such as titanium, silver, cobalt,
and lead in synthetic sea salt are much higher than those in sea water. The magnitude
of the difference can be as large as 104.
III. Hai-O Bamboo Salt
Hai-O bamboo salt uses 100% organic sun-dried salt as its
raw material. This natural salt is made of energy seawater generated by the
vast underground ore cluster at Yeonpyeong Island and Hyeongjun Peninsular,
West Coast of Korea. The natural salt is poured into a 3-year old bamboo tube
and sealed by unpolluted yellow clay. Sealed bamboo tube will be incinerated in
kiln with pine firewood to melt and harden the natural salt into a column.
Harmful materials such as heavy metals or impurities will be neutralized and
removed after the burning process. However, the salt is enriched by essence of
pine woods (such as turpentine and pine oil) and bamboo (200 types of essential
trace elements) with inorganic metal ions such as magnesium, calcium,
potassium, copper, iron and zinc which are essential for human body.
- Removes toxins (such as heavy metals, chemical substances, germs, metabolic wastes, acid toxicity, free radicals).
- Enhances intestinal peristalsis and eliminates sedimentary waste.
- Provides minerals and trace elements.
- Regulates biological mechanisms and body systems.
- Regulates acid-base balance and restores body alkalinity.
- Improves restorative capacity.
