Refined table salt has 84 minerals and trace elements that is removed during the refining process and sold to us when we develop chronic illness as we grow older. The result is an excess of industrial sodium chloride devoid of the nutrients that our immune system needs to repair our bodies. Without the proper nutrients our immune system is a mechanic without tools and spare parts, or a army without weapons to fight off invaders and old age.

Animals seek out salt in nature because they know they need the nutients to keep healthy.
