Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Actually very little! Here is some info from a website study done Fisher and L'Abbe (1980) tested non-iodized sea salt and iodized table salt and sea salt.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 >>What about non-idiozed table salt? Is it not as good as sea salt?<< Non iodized table salt does not have the minerals in sea salt, some of which MUST be important to me as I used the mom-iodized for years and it was not the same. I still swelled like crazy. I think magnesium content is a huge part of it. Here is another website about the mineral content of sea salt. BTW what I buy is unrefined " gray " salt. http://www.eco-natural.com/greysalt/saltquiz.html *Artistic Grooming * Hurricane, WV Fat cat? Diabetes?
