WELCOME to Himalayan Crystal Salt.ca

Let’s face it, we’ve been mind conditioned to believe salt is the enemy. Our thoughts immediately turn to high blood pressure when the subject is brought up. The truth is that it’s not the salt that contributes to poor health, but sodium chloride, a highly processed version of something vital to our health.

Our bodies need salt. Remember those days where you just crave salty snacks and you reach for the chips and the peanuts? That means your body’s natural intelligence is telling you what it needs. We require only about 200mg of salt on a daily basis. If we receive less than that, we get salt cravings. Research shows that on average we consume as much as 11-19g of the regular table salt. Obviously the lack of salt is in the quality we consume.

Himalayan crystal salt is mined about 500 meters deep inside the Himalayas and comes from dried up primal sea of 25-million years ago. It’s very pure. Our body mainly consists of water and salt, so it makes sense to choose a high quality salt, which nurtures the body with important minerals and trace elements. Natural crystal salt has the same composition as the salt in our body and there are several ways to consume it.

MEET OUR TOP-SELLER: Salt Brine Therapy for pH Balance - Use a glass jar with a lid and put a few crystal salt rocks in the jar. Fill it with pure spring water and wait 24 hours. You keep adding crystal salt until they stay at the bottom. The water is now fully saturated with salt and is ready to be used. Studies show that when crystal salt is dissolved in water, it has a higher energetic measurement than either one of them alone.

It’s best to take one teaspoon of the solution in a glass of water every morning on an empty stomach. Regularity is more important then quantity, due to the vibration of the salt. It holds this frequency pattern in the body for 24 hours and supplies your body with sufficient minerals and trace elements. For children, a few drops is sufficient.

Salt Brine Therapy helps harmonize the acid-alkaline levels of your body. The body has an acid-alkaline ratio called the pH which is a balance between positively charges ions, which are acid-forming and negatively charged ions, which are alkaline-forming. If you have a pH imbalance and lean towards more acidic, it forces the body to borrow minerals from vital organs and bones to neutralize the acid. This can cause severe damage to your body. You might not be aware of it until years later when it surfaces in the form of disease like osteoporosis, arthritis, gout, obesity, diabetes, lowered immune system, hormone disruptions, chronic fatigue, slow digestion, yeast overgrowth and more. Our diet should consist of 20% acid-forming foods like meat, dairy, flour, eggs, coffee and 80% alkaline-forming foods like fresh vegetables. Brine will also assist in balancing blood pressure, however this should not be used as a remedy for high blood pressure.

OUR RUNNER UP: Crystal Salt Bath Therapy - Crystal salt can also be used as a bath therapy. It is most beneficial when used during moon changes. At New Moon, your body has the best capacity of detoxifying and at Full Moon it has the best mineral absorption. Studies show that one crystal salt bath is as detoxifying as a three day fast.

Put about 1 kg of crystal salt in your tub. Don’t add any fragrances or other oils. Add a layer of water just enough to cover the salt. Let it sit for about 30 - 60 minutes until it’s dissolved, then add the rest of your bath water.

It is important to make your tub water approximately at body temperature, so your body doesn’t have to waste energy regulating body temperature during bathing. Soak in the tub for 15 to 20 minutes. The bath water stays close to your body temperature, due to the energy of the salt. My personal experience is that afterwards your skin feels like a warm “after sun” glow. It’s quite hard on the circulatory system, so if you think it will be too strenuous for you, you can try a foot bath.

Crystal salt variety is better than sodium chloride and sea salt. Sea salt is an improvement compared to sodium chloride, however there are still many toxins in sea salt that we are better off without. Sea salt also contains less minerals and trace elements than pure crystal salt. Sprinkle some crystal salt on your food and feel good about it. If you have high blood pressure or your kidneys are not functioning properly, you may want to be careful and consult your doctor first.

Himalayan Crystal Salt Lamps are also beneficial to our health. They are a natural ionizer that’s a must for every household. Damaging positive ions are produced by television sets, computer monitors, radio, electric heat sources, vacuum cleaners, etc. Salt Lamps produce ions that carry negative charges (like electrical inonic air purifiers), creating a pleasant atmosphere similar to that found in mountains, by rivers and the sea. Negative ions are considered the vitamins of the air and besides that they add a calming effect to any environment. The Himalayan salt in our products is pure Himalayan crystal salt. Each of our salt crystal lamps is an air ionizer that could be called "air purifiers" - the elements within the crystal salt are ionized as they enter the air, allowing them to penetrate the body’s cells in a superb form of respiratory therapy that standard home air purifiers simply can't provide. Our lamps are FULLY CSA approved.

Himalayan crystal salt is definitely an affordable solution to many health challenges. Along with a balanced diet, plenty of water, regular exercise and a meditation program, crystal salt can help you live longer, healthier and happier.
