Product Information

Sea salt is made through the evaporation of seawater, undergoing minimal processing (if any), which ensures it retains its trace levels of minerals such as magnesium, potassium, calcium and other nutrients. Eating too much salt increases your risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, kidney disease, stroke, osteoporosis and kidney stones. Because whilst its true that all salt is sodium chloride, and all salt comes from the sea, table salt has been processed and stripped of its beneficial minerals leaving ONLY sodium and chloride, and perhaps an anti-caking substance such as silicon dioxide or magnesium carbonate. Rich with vital minerals, our sea salt is a healthy alternative to table salt which is laden with additives and anti-caking agents.

Electrolytes in salt include magnesium, calcium, potassium, and sodium all of which are beneficial for muscle, brain and heart health. Summary: Despite their unpleasant sting, the humble wild nettles are actually tasty and very nutritious: they are high in Iron, Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorous, Zinc, Chromium, B vitamins and trace minerals including Selenium and Manganese !
