The story of Celtic Sea Salt® beganthousands of years ago, when the Celts discovered a way to harvest saltfrom the ocean using the sun, the wind, and shallow clay ponds.Pristine ocean channels spiral water into the concentrating ponds. Thelive flowing mixture is carefully stirred by the salt farmer, anddazzling crystals form and are gathered by hand. The ionizing action ofthe clay, combined with the artisan’s skillful method, passed downthrough generations, enlivens the unique, bioavailable array of traceelements that exist in a perfectly balanced matrix.

Heart:Over time, studies investigating the link between sodium and high blood pressure have produced mixed results. Numerous scientific studies now indicate that a balance of minerals is necessary and more beneficial than eliminating sodium. Nationally known experts such as Dr. Andrew Weil are recognizing that when minerals are fractionated and processed, they undergo a mutation that can result in many health problems. Others, like Esteban Genoa, MD, believe that eating a diet with a natural balance of sodium, magnesium and potassium may actually help to lower blood pressure and promote good health. “I’ve enjoyed using Celtic Sea Salt® for several years now. It enhances the flavor of whole foods and provides me and my family with a superior source of trace minerals.” -Dr. Christiane Northrup, author Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom
Health:Your body uses high mineral salts to create electrolytes. Electrolytes, the sparks of life, carry electrical currents throughout the body- sending messages and instructions to cells in all bodily systems. Electrolytes are also necessary for enzyme production. Enzymes are responsible for breaking down food, absorbing nutrients, muscle function, hormone production and more. Electrolytes and enzymes are also linked to healthy immune function, proper regulation of bodily fluids, and adrenal health.

Kosher:Celtic Sea Salt® is under kosher supervision. We have permission to display a Hedsher symbol on the salt labels. This permission is obtained through inspection by a Rabbi, who makes unannounced visits. The Rabbi inspects the facility, with emphasis on the salt room procedures, purchasing documents and cleaning products used. The guidelines for packaging the salt are posted inside and just outside the salt room. Our salt is considered Parve (pronounced par-v), meaning it is neither a meat or a dairy food, but a neutral one. Our salt is also acceptable for use during Passover, a designation not found on many mainstream products.
