Salts in Raw Food Diets

Alright, let's take some time and talk about salt in your raw live food diet. Now, we've all are probably very familiar with table salt. Table salt is in a form which is not a healthy substance to use on your food. It creates a lot of physical problems that are well publicized. In this raw live food diet, the alternative is, some people like what they call Celtic Salt. This salt has a lot of trace minerals and the sodium content is a lot less. My preference is the Himalayan Mineral Salts. By volume, only twenty four percent of this is actually the sodium. The rest is made up of eighty four minerals that your body is essentially made up of, so when you're putting this on your food, it's DNA ready. Your body recognizes it, it knows what it is. With table salt, your body doesn't know what that is, so it stores it, it puts it here and there. It's actually, table salt is, your body foresees it as poison and surrounds it with all kinds of moisture and stuff that actually bloats people. So this would be the preferred salt that we would want to use in our live raw food diet and we call it mineral salts, not salt.
