Sounds like it's got to have some undesirables in there, though whether they're at problematic concentrations is anyone's guess at this point. Do you have any reason to preferring it to other salts, like Celtic sea salt? Is it cheaper or more available or something? - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2003 Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 - Well, some of the elements contained in the salt, like lead, uranium and plutonium, are definitely undesirable and, AFAIK, play no positive role in human nutrition and health whatsoever. Then again, maybe they're present in such minute quantities that they don't matter. The problem is that they don't provide a lab analysis of the salt. Celtic, in contrast, has been analyzed, and the analysis is publicly available. >no preference no. a friend of mine just sent me the URL tosmorning and asked >me what i thought about it. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 One thing I noticed right away is that plutonium and I believe also neptunium are man made elements. They don't exist in nature. What are they doing in salt deposits that are hundreds of millions of years old? :| Oh, and they are highly radioactive too.
