Interesting article ..... Minerals are such a necessary component but this article seems to maintain the narrow-mindedness of the allopathic kingdom: paying attention to NaCl without considering the othe 58 +/- salts necessary for human body metabolism. Out of the documented use of over 60 minerals that the human needs for its everyday metabolism and existence, MDs pay attention to 5: sodium, chloride, magnesium, potassium and calcium. They seem to think the the body 'picks' all the others up from somewhere and 'since only trace amounts are needed, they don't need to be tracked or accorded'. Consequently, pharmacology and western medicine deals only with the Big 5. Focusing only on NaCl will get us stuck every time. The one advantage of sea salt is its composition containing other of the trace minerals. Unfortunately, many of those are in inorganic form, either not absorbing or complicating the existence of the organic ones....but ultimately causing sea salt to be a troublesome, ineffective and erratic source, taking us back to square one. Dr. Wallach, in his Rare EArths Forbidden Cures outlines this conundrum ..... coming to the conclusion that, for this vital nutrient group, we are dependent on supplemental sources. As we watch our Fibromyalgia patients proceed through their treatment course, , using that group consistently visually and statistically seems to make a HUGE difference in their treatment course, in the resolution of their underlying inflammatory state and in porgressing them back to 'normal' life. The ones who take on that portion of the treatment plan progress FAR faster and more thoroughly than those who play at using it. 'Salt' (NaCl) is such a tiny portion of the picture. It is shameful, here in the 2000 and teens, that western medicine still considers it as a 'primary' component.
