Fw: Seasalt

[Guest guest]

Reminder of why seasalt is so good for us

Natural sea salt [reconstituted seawater] allows liquids to freely

cross

body membranes, the kidney's glomerulus's and blood vessels walls.

Whenever

the sodium chloride concentration rises in the blood, the water in the

neighboring tissues is attracted to that salt-rich blood, and the

cells then

re-absorb the enriched intra-cellular fluid. If they are functioning

properly, the kidneys remove the saline fluids easily. Refined salt

does not

allow this free-crossing of liquids and minerals, and causes

accumulated

fluids to stagnate in joint, producing edema and chronic kidney

problems.

Vital Functions of Salt in the Body

1. Salt is most effective in stabilizing irregular heartbeats and,

Contrary to the misconception that it causes high blood pressure, it

is actually essential for the regulation of blood pressure - in

conjunction with water. Naturally the proportions are critical.

2. Salt is vital to the extraction of excess acidity from the cells

in the

body, particularly the brain cells.

3. Salt is vital for balancing the sugar levels in the blood; a needed

element in diabetics.

4. Salt is vital for the generation of hydroelectric energy in cells

in the

body. It is used for local power generation at the sites of energy

need by

the cells.

5. Salt is vital to the nerve cells' communication and information

processing all the time that the brain cells work, from the moment of

conception to death.

6. Salt is vital for absorption of food particles through the

intestinal

tract.

7. Salt is vital for the clearance of the lungs of mucus plugs and

sticky

phlegm, particularly in asthma and cystic fibrosis.

8. Salt is vital for clearing up catarrh and congestion of the

sinuses.

9. Salt is a strong natural antihistamine.

10. Salt is essential for the prevention of muscle cramps.

11. Salt is vital to prevent excess saliva production to the point

that it

flows out of the mouth during sleep. Needing to constantly mop up

excess

saliva indicates salt shortage.

12. Salt is absolutely vital to making the structure of bones firm.

Osteoporosis, in a major way, is a result of salt and water shortage

in the

body.

13. Salt is vital for sleep regulation. It is a natural hypnotic.

14. Salt is a vitally needed element in the treatment of diabetics.

15. Salt on the tongue will stop persistent dry coughs.

16. Salt is vital for the prevention of gout and gouty arthritis.

17. Salt is vital for maintaining sexuality and libido.

18. Salt is vital for preventing varicose veins and spider veins on

the legs

and thighs.

19. Salt is vital to the communication and information processing

nerve cells the entire time that the brain cells work - from the

moment of conception to death.

20. Salt is vital for reducing a double chin. When the body is short

of

salt, it means the body really is short of water. The salivary glands

sense

the salt shortage and are obliged to produce more saliva to lubricate

the

act of chewing and swallowing and also to supply the stomach with

water that

it needs for breaking down foods. Circulation to the salivary glands

increases and the blood vessels become " leaky " in order to supply the

glands

with water to manufacture saliva. The " leakiness " spills beyond the

area of

the glands themselves, causing increased bulk under the skin of the

chin,

the cheeks and into the neck.

21. Sea salt contains about 80 mineral elements that the body needs.

Some of these elements are needed in trace amounts. Unrefined sea

salt is a

better choice of salt than other types of salt on the market.

Ordinary table

salt that is bought in the super markets has been stripped of its

companion

elements and contains additive elements such as aluminum silicate to

keep it

powdery and porous.

Aluminum is a very toxic element in our nervous system. It is

implicated as

one of the primary causes of Alzheimer's disease.

22. Twenty-seven percent of the body's salt is in the bones.

Osteoporosis results when the body needs more salt and takes it from

the

body. Bones are twenty-two percent water. Is it not obvious what

happens to the bones when we're deficient in salt water or both.
