You will note in the Mr Cabbage Head Diet that salt is not allowed. This refers to normal table salt which is just a chemical, sodium chloride. Eating this unnatural salt can contribute to fluid imbalance, cellulite, rheumatism, arthritis, gout, Kidney and gall bladder stones. Processed food often contains salt as well; this is another reason to avoid processed food.

What is Himalayan Crystal Salt?

Himalayan Crystal Salt comes from a time when the planet Earth was a pristine ecosystem. Millions of years ago, a primordial sea was evaporated by the sun, leaving absolutely pristine crystalline salt. Millions of years of pressure forced this salt into a crystalline form. This crystal salt is buried deep in the Himalayas. Himalayan Crystal Salt is 250 million years old and is probably the only source of all trace elements necessary for optimum human health.

In ancient times, Himalayan Crystal Salt was also called “king salt” because it was reserved for Royalty. The common citizens only got rock salt.

“Salt is born of the purest of parents: the sun and the sea.” Pythagoras (580 BC - 500 BC)

So, instead of suppressing symptoms with drugs, why not give the body what it needs - all 84 elements needed for human health. Of course, we need more than these elements for sustenance.
