Unlike other popular salts, Mineral Salt contains no bleaching or anti-caking agents. 

WHO IT’S FOR:

All adults – this product is appropriate for all adults, and it is not targeted specifically for one sex or another. It is safe for those who are pregnant and/or breastfeeding.

THE BENEFITS: 

Mineral Salt supplies critical trace elements to the body. It is a rich source of minerals, and it is particularly nourishing for the adrenals. Mineral salt is beneficial for those looking to optimize nervous system function and enzymatic/cellular activity within the body.

Mineral Salt can be used as your everyday salt. Use it daily in place of regular table salt to add robust flavor to foods and drinks for the whole family.

It is also great to add to water and drinks in order to nourish the adrenals. A favorite adrenal cocktail recipe: 

• 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of Mineral Salt
