SEA SALT
A natural form of salt that contains less sodium than table salt...
Sea salt contains essential electrolytes.
Sea salt is exactly what its name implies, the salt obtained by the evaporation of seawater. Historically, this was the main source of salt for regions that did not have mineral salt (halite) available to be mined. For more information on halite, please click here. In more recent times, sea salt is often hailed as the superior form of salt for food preparation. It is used in cooking, and is particularly prized for its clean taste and coarse texture.
Health Effects
The health consequences of ingesting sea salt are the same as those associated with table salt. For more information on these effects, please see our salt article. The benefits for thyroid health may be less than that of table salt, as sea salt is not enriched with iodine in the same way. Interestingly, sea salt does contain iodine, in its natural and more bioavailable form, but the dose may not be sufficient. For more information on the benefits of iodine, please click here. Interestingly, it is this lack of processing and additives that make sea salt prized around the world as a natural salt.
Mineral Content
Because it is largely unprocessed, sea salt contains a natural mineral balance that differs from table salt. Table salt is over 97% sodium chloride, thus it contains at least 48% sodium. Sea salt is 55% chloride, and only 30% sodium. This is nearly 20% lower than table salt by weight. The space left by the lower amount of sodium is instead filled by other minerals such as: magnesium, calcium, potassium, and bromide. Many of these are other essential electrolytes in the human body.
Electrolytes
Electrolytes are minerals that play a role in the water balance in the human body. Sea salt can contain a number of different electrolytes. The main electrolytes of biological importance in the human body are: sodium, chloride, magnesium, potassium, calcium, phosphate, and carbonate. For more information on electrolytes, please click here.
Cosmetics
Sea salt is often used in cosmetics due to its natural mineral content. It can also be used as a skin scrub due to its naturally rough granular texture.
How can I get more sea salt?
Sea salt can be found alone or in combination products for food seasoning. In general these products should be used in the same way as any other salt products. Be sure to limit your sodium intake to less than 2,300mg a day to avoid negative cardiovascular effects.
