CELTIC SALT (SEL GRIS) 100G

Celtic Sea Salt Benefits

Celtic sea salt (also called French gray sea salt) is a natural, minimally processed sea salt harvested from coastal salt ponds. It contains sodium chloride along with small amounts of naturally occurring minerals such as magnesium, potassium, calcium, and trace elements.

Potential Benefits

• Supports hydration by providing sodium, an essential electrolyte that helps regulate fluid balance.
• Contains trace minerals such as magnesium, calcium, and potassium, although only in small amounts.
• Less processed than regular table salt and free from many anti-caking agents.
• Enhances flavor naturally, which may help some people use less salt overall.
• Can help replace electrolytes lost through heavy sweating or prolonged exercise when used appropriately.
• Retains natural moisture, giving it a distinctive texture and taste that many people prefer.

Important Facts

• Despite its trace minerals, Celtic sea salt is not significantly healthier than regular salt. The mineral amounts are too small to make a major nutritional difference.
• It contains about the same amount of sodium as other salts, so excessive intake can still contribute to:
  • High blood pressure
  • Heart disease
  • Stroke
  • Kidney problems
• Most Celtic sea salt is not iodized. If you use it exclusively, ensure you get iodine from foods such as seafood, dairy, eggs, or iodized salt.
