Salt: Table salt is unhealthy. The minerals are taken out of it it processing. A percentage of the population will have a blood pressure increase by using salt. A lab test can determine if you are in that sub-group. Please see doctor and ask about using sea salt, which contains the minerals that table salt removes. Peace and good health.
