The Skinny on Table Salt

If you or your family suffers from food allergies, it's important to know that HimalaSalt does not contain anti-caking or flow agents, is not heat treated, which destroys essential trace elements, and importantly, is non-iodized. Iodized table salt contains dextrose, which is derived from corn, one of the most common allergens. It is highly recommended to obtain this important element from naturally rich sources, including kelp and sea vegetables. Table salt, as well as many of today's popular sea salts contains anti-caking and flow agents derived from alumino-silicate of sodium or yellow prussiate of soda. These act as desiccants, to which various bleaches have been added, making this salt little more than an industrial waste byproduct. HimalaSalt offers the healthiest alternative, and is unrefined, all natural, with no additives of any kind.
