Himalayan Salt

Yesterday while our lady group was on the cny visitation to 2 of our buddy sisters, we were all tempted by the ambient of the delicious food, cookies and cake, none could resist to take appropriate potion of each. Our leader, Maggi suggested to rub our buttock with the so called Himalayan salt. And from sources she gathered was that her own daughter who is a bit obsessed in her sophomore year used the Himalayan salt to rub the buttock and reduced her buttock size effectively only about a week after the rubbing done with only 10 minutes daily before taking bath. She later introduced to her grandma who consequently also claimed of such effectiveness of the fine pinkish crystal salt. All the ladies were alerted and sound interested to know how to get a packet to try.

I told them that I have been consuming it early every morning before I took breakfast. I just sip a finger dip of it with a cup of water. And I believed that regular consumption of natural salt provides my body with natural minerals, trace elements and living energy. This will help balance the electrolytes in fluids of my body, support proper nutrient absorption and toxin elimination. This whole sort of health information came to my knowledge from an uncle who is also my neighbor. He is a very health conscious man with hundred of books on health he accumulated through out his life. Despite his ages of more than 70 plus, he still a CEO of a company and does his business well with a lot of travelings.

Talking about electrolytes it can easily been seem that the hospital patients are administered with the appropriated amount after the blood test. Patients on operation are given this when the time they could not eat in order to balance their electrolytes imbalance.

Coincidentally, from my email box this morning I received, this so called Himalayan salt which I wanted to do some research on the great significant of it popped in.( I really spent time on these ) So all my buddies who are readers of my blog, let read together:

And I found out that Common table salt has been refined and reduced to pure sodium chloride, acting as poison in your body. For your body to function properly, you need whole natural salt with all its natural elements intact. Himalayan Crystal Salt offers all 84 elements, exactly identical to the elements in your body, and is vital for:

. Regulating the water content throughout your body

. Balancing excess acidity from your cells, particularly your brain cells

. Balancing your blood sugar levels and helping to reduce your aging rate

. Absorption of food particles through your intestinal tract

calcifications (arthritis & bone spurs from random deposits)

. Stabilizing irregular heartbeats and blood pressure

.Natural antihistamine to clear congestion (particularly useful in asthma and cystic
fibrosis )

To Renew Your Health and Vitality

Himalayan Crystal Salt is of the purest, highest grade salt that has been formed for over 250 million years under enormous pressure, maturing without exposure to pollutants. Over time, its energy was built up, forming a crystalline structure with a high concentration of life force energy. Carefully harvested by hand (without explosives & heavy machinery), the life force within the salt is preserved.

Himalayan Crystal Salt is a Whole Food

Natural salt is food, much like fruits, vegetables, grains, and water. It is a whole food: an essential nutrient, with exceptional abilities and qualities that are fundamental to keeping us alive. It should also be noted that just as refined sugar or flour have negative impact on your health, so does refined salt.

Consuming natural salt will support and enhance good health, because it contains the original counterparts of table salt (sodium chloride) such as potassium, calcium, magnesium and many other minerals & trace elements. Together, these minerals and trace elements keep things in balance: when they are not present, many life processes are impaired.

Be Conscious of Your Salt & Water Quality

To date, scientific interest in the biophysical qualities of salt has been slight, therefore little research has been done. Scientific probing and analyzing of crystal salt, in the forbidding depths of the salt mine, is both extensive and extravagant. Up to now it was neither of any interest to the salt miners nor to the general public. Only after the publishing of research data, gathered from the analytical study of crystal salt that was mined in Berchtesgaden, Germany and in the Himalayan Mountains in Pakistan, did public and scientific interest soar.

Naturally, in order to preserve the inherent vibration pattern in the Himalayan crystal salt, it must be hand mined. This increases not only its value, but also consequently, its price. Expect to pay more for this salt than for other table salts, sea salts or rock salt. Therefore, be mindful of the quality of the product you intend to buy. The crystal salt from the Himalayan Mountains that was used for conducting the medical research revealed in the book "Water and Salt" by Peter Ferreira, continues to be utilized by the medical profession and fulfills all named essentials. Today there are several hundred doctors and therapists utilizing this ancient holistic knowledge. For thousands of years, doctors have successfully treated their patients with nothing more than water and salt. ( So no chemical administered to the patient's body eh! )

There are many health conscious individuals who shop at health and natural food stores. However, many are simply nonchalant in regards to the most important foods, water and salt. One study showed that people who were less health food conscious, but were drinking the highest quality water and consuming the highest quality salt, for the most part had healthier organs than the health conscious people who paid no attention to the quality of water and salt they were consuming.

Understand that you can become physically and mentally independent when you choose to drink energized water and you choose to eat pure crystal salt, instead of table salt. However, this is not about just regaining your total health. What I found out also discussing here is about balancing and managing your energy, which can be maintained by the information bound in the water and the salt. These two elements hold everything to satisfy your body and your mind.

Natural Salt in Your Body

Healthy human body fluid (70% by weight) contains a balance of minerals and trace elements, including salt. Pure crystal salt helps balance your bodily fluids - essential for health. Natural sea salt contains a balance of minerals and trace elements, nearly equivalent to the body's cellular fluid. But today, the sea can be loaded with toxins, and therefore is becoming not as good a source for supplementation.

Himalayan Crystal Salt contains a natural balance of minerals and trace elements, present in colloidal form: small enough to absorb through the cellular membrane, making it ideal for efficient and successful absorption. It is almost impossible to absorb too much. High blood pressure does not result, and low blood pressure is raised.

Most people are salt deficient, despite being overloaded with sodium chloride. The unbalanced refined salt intake leads to water retention and bloating, as the body attempts to balance the minerals it is unable to excrete. In this process, water is taken from your cells as the body sacrifices its structured cell water in order to neutralize sodium chloride. The dehydrated body cells die, while the fluid between the cells remains too rich in minerals.

The result of consuming common refined table salt is the formation of acidic edema, or excess fluid in the body tissue. That's why doctors tell us to avoid salt. The body uses 23 times the weight of salt in water to neutralize the salt. ( calling my buddy sister Rossie, this might help to affirm you now )

The Healing Effects of Himalayan Salt

Fortunately, we are witnessing a trend to return back to natural, holistic methods for living and caring for our body, including a shift back to utilizing natural salts in this process. People everywhere are reconsidering the healing effects of natural crystal salt. We can find it in skin care lotions, for use as bath salts and is even used in inhalation or cleansing treatments for illnesses of the respiratory system and for a variety of other indications.

Natural Salt's History

Throughout human history, natural salt has been treated like treasure. It was called white gold, and was the subject of political maneuvers and wars. Roman soldiers were actually paid with salt, which is reflected in the word salary. Salt was more important for survival than gold. Throughout Europe, the salt transportation routes became the basis of all commerce.

It was only one hundred years ago (with the advent of industrialization) that we initiated our disconnection from nature and her ways.

For thousands of years salt has been known as a panacea. Alchemists called it "the fifth element" - besides water, earth, air and fire - because its qualities were comparable only to aether, the actual fifth element. Why are we so drawn to the ocean? Because our subconscious mind instinctively wants to return to the specific vibrational state of the ocean from which we once emerged. This is where we can return to recharge our batteries and regenerate.

Crystal salt from the Himalayas is considered the king's salt. It is also known as the "white gold" or "salt of life". This is not surprising, since the word salt comes from sun (sol).

Biblical references

In the Old Testament, Mosaic law called for salt to be added to all burnt animal sacrifices (Lev. 2:13).

The Book of Ezra (550 BC to 450 BC) associated accepting salt from a person with being in that person's service. In Ezra 4:14, the servants of Artaxerxes I of Persia explain their loyalty to the King. When translated, it is either stated literally as "because we have eaten the salt of the palace" or more figuratively as "because we have maintenance from the king."

In the New Testament, Matthew 5:13 Jesus said, "You are the salt of the earth." He added that if the salt loses its flavor, it is good for nothing but to be trampled. Jesus said this in order to show his disciples how valuable they were and this saying is commonly used today to describe someone who is of particular value to society[original research?]. In addition, the preservative quality of salt is in view here to show how the disciples were called to preserve the society and the world around them from moral decay. On another occasion according to the Gospels, Jesus commanded his followers to "have salt within them".

Conveniently, we are able to get this Himalayan salt from supermarkets or from Health stores which is also within our purchasing budget.
