Original Himalayan Salt Crystal - Fine Granulated 2.2lb (1kg) Culinary Salt for Cooking, Food Preparation and Health with 84 Trace Minerals

I am using this product now. I will discuss both the himalayan salt inhaler and the himalayan salt itself and how I use both. I am asthmatic and have been so since I was 3. I find the salt inhaler helpful but I still use my regular inhaler which is minimal. What I am finding out is that when I drink the himalayan salt twice a day that is helping cut down my asthma. I drink one teaspoon in the morning and the evening. It doesn't taste to bad but I get it down fast. I also use warm water. That approach is making some differences. I use the himalayan salt inhaler along with my other inhaler. The salt inhaler makes my lungs feel good. Asthma is a lower tract problem visiting the lungs or at least if you read about asthma ascarsis it has a full cycle from the lower tract into the lungs. Not a fun problem. My dad and grandfather had asthma and who knows how far back the problem exists. It isn't genetic but a bacterium that is very hard to kill. The drinking of the himalayan salt helps to alkalize the body but it also does some unique tricks of its own for what it is. It is an wonderful mineral supplement of many minerals in addition to the salt. Salt kills anything and is a killer of germs. The process has to be used daily as once asthma and lung problems exist, the fight is on to keep the lid on it. It isn't an easy street problem that can be quickly resolved. I use the himalayan salt drink now to kill what causes asthma and I will continue to use it to keep the problem at bay. It has cut down my allergies tremendously so I'm a big fan of it. The inhaler I really like. It makes my lungs feel good. I can breathe a lot deeper with it I've noticed. I've had mine over about two months now and progress is with both techniques I am talking about. Please note I am not talking about table salt or sea salt of any kind; I am talking about the himalayan salt. It is the only one that has this incredible balancing and healing property to it. I am seeing some wonderful results by drinking it. And believe me asthma has been so miserable for me that drinking it is nothing. If that solves the problem and gives me my life back and my energy, I can handle it.Update on the above:I use the "sole" that you make with the himalayan rocks. I have gone to using just one teaspoon of sole in a glass of water in the morning on empty stomach. It is far more effective than doing this teaspoon a day with regular himalayan salt which is what I started out with originally but modified the procedure as time went on and as I learned more about the uses of himalayan salt. I'd not suggest to anyone using a teaspoon of regular salt in a drink of water; it is too much salt for anyone with asthma. It is incredible stuff, but creating sole is with the himalayan rocks and water. You add the rocks to a glass container of water that has a lid and let it sit. You keep adding rocks every 24 hours until the rocks stop dissolving and then the sole water is ready but just do one teaspoon in a glass of water and preferably on empty stomach waiting for one hour to get the best impacts and then you are done for the day until the next time. The sole is highly concentrated at that point. When the water gets down add more water and more rocks and let it sit for the 24 hours before taking anything out. If the rocks dissolve add more rocks. A box of the rocks will last a very long time.Hope that helps clarify the process. Use the himalayan rocks to create sole water and do not drink the himalayan salt by itself--too much salt for anyone in that fashion. The salt inhaler is impressive. Tiberius

My adult daughter ( who has long been out on her own, raising her own family) recently stayed with me for a week. Several times, she asked what made my food taste so good and because of "Mom pride" I attributed it to her just eating Mom's cooking again. But then I remembered that I never was a very good cook and my kids all turned out to be far better cooks than I. After much discussion about "taste" we narrowed it down to the Himalayan salt that I use. We went immediately to the computer and I ordered a box of the Himalayan salt to be sent to her house. Now, she's back at her home and she told me how much better her food tastes since she's been using the salt.I've been using the salt for quite a few years and I've never noticed a salty after taste in my mouth, especially in the morning. But when ever I have to eat in a restaurant (or someone else's cooking) I do notice a salty taste in my mouth in the morning. I'm not saying this salt changes my life drastically but it does add enhancement to the taste of food.

There is a lot of misinformation that is very misleading about Original Himalayan Crystal Salt and imposters. First, there was a group called Parents of Fluoride Poisoned Children, who wrote an article and had their facts mixed up. They bunched all "Himalayan Salt" together, even though there is only ONE original and the others are all knock-offs.By inference, they suggest that Original Himalayan Crystal Salt has 192 mg of fluoride (however they don't say 192 mg in *what* quantity). Actually, it has < 0.1g/kg and it is calcium fluoride -- NOT the highly toxic sodium fluoride that is sometimes added to salt and that is used as rat poison.As long as it's coming from American BlueGreen, LLC, the salt is authentic. What is called "Himalayan Salt" are often knock-offs of "ORIGINAL Himalayan Crystal Salt," riding on its popularity and research.At least several of these imposters appear to be quite high in fluoride and possibly other undesirable elements, which as mentioned, was written about by the group of concerned parents. However, Original Himalayan Crystal Salt has < 0.1 g/kg of calcium fluoride. Calcium is a BUFFER for fluoride. Calcium is actually used as the ANTIDOTE for fluoride poisoning.Calcium fluoride is considered relatively harmless to humans due to extremely low solubility. On the other hand, Sodium fluoride from the fertilizer and aluminum industry wastes is highly toxic. It is used as minerals in the impostors.The Original HCS was rigorous studied and was proven to have health benefits.Dr. Batmanghelidj, author of "Your Body's Many Cries For Water" and "You're Not Sick, You're Thirsty" recommended sea salt and water (also known as sole -- pronounced: so-lay). His foundation recommends Original Himalayan Crystal Salt.Also, check out Dr. David Brownstein's site, he talks about how this type of salt helps exhausted adrenals, thyroid problems, high blood pressure, fatigue and on the list goes. I use this salt in water every day, especially after exercising.This salt sold on Amazon is the real deal, and not an impostor.

I read the book 'Water and Salt' several years ago which is why I began buying this wonderful salt. If you've ever researched salt, you'd find that typical white table salt in it's 'cleansed' state is a lifeless chemical. As a result, the body sees it as a poison and must work very hard to try to eliminate it. This is why many people are ending up with high blood pressure as most of the American diet is full of processed foods full of the (white salt) poison. Himalayan Crystal Salt is very healthy and safe to cook with and helps to balance the body as it is loaded with many trace minerals. It is also more healthy than sea salt. Think about it....our oceans are getting more and more polluted. It is a bit expensive, but your health is worth it. Check it out. Then you'll get rid of all your table salt and replace it with this too!
