Beware of "Sea
Salt" Products Labels
On the labels of many packaged foods, in supermarkets as well as health
food stores the name "sea salt" appears often. Naturally, we
feel safe and reassured, thinking that when it comes to the salt part of
the ingredients, all is fine...
But all
is not fine. You have been duped!

From the
manufacturer's label:
Dry, refined salt (sodium chloride)
suitable for human consumption.
Produced in Australia by solar
evaporation, harvested and refined in
accordance with good manufacturing
practice, under a HACCP Quality System
that complies with the Australian Food
Standards Code J2, 1993. |
This supermarket or health food store "sea salt" has been
totally refined. At its origin, it may have come from the sea, but:
-
It has
been harvested mechanically from dirt or concrete basins with
bulldozers and piped through metal conduits;
-
Put
through many degrading artificial processes;
-
Heated
under extreme heat levels in order to crack its molecular structure;
-
Robbed
of all of its essential minerals that are essential to our
physiology. These elements are extracted and sold separately to
industry.
Precious and highly prized by the salt refiners, they bring much
more profits than selling the salt itself.
-
Further
adulterated by chemical additives to make it free- flowing,
bleached, and iodized.
To call the leftover of such treatment "sea salt" is simply misleading. To make it worse, harmful
chemicals have been added to the
processed, altered unnatural substance called "table salt"
now,
to mask and cover up all of the impurities it has. These added
chemicals include free flowing agents, inorganic iodine, plus dextrose
and bleaching agents. Commonly, the
standard salt additives are:
Potassium-Iodide (added to the salt
to avoid Iodine deficiency disease of thyroid gland), Sugar
(added to
stabilize Iodine and as anti-caking chemical), Aluminium silicate,
a poison incriminated
in Alzheimer's disease.
This particular manufacturer, has not been singled out - just one of the
many, peddling their salt to unsuspecting customers, as a pure sea salt.
Buyer beware!
