The Importance of Salt during Fasting: Focus on Himalayan Salt
When fasting, side effects are quickly felt: this is normal, because even if you have reduced your diet for a period of time, your body still uses your mineral resources to function.
The decrease in these minerals can usually cause headaches and a feeling of dizziness and floating.
The remedy: bring salt to your body!
The salt intake recommended by nutritionists in France is 5g to a maximum of 8g per day (man or woman).
Salt is essential to life, it provides all the trace elements necessary for the proper functioning of your body. Farewell to the negative effects of fasting!
Why avoid refined salt?
Refined table salt has nothing to do with natural salt, it is bleached, its chemical structure is modified during its drying (too high temperature), it is mainly composed of sodium chloride but the remaining 2 to 3% are metals and chemicals that are added to absorb moisture: iodine, copper, arsenic, and even mercury.
This chemical salt causes harmful effects on the liver, the bladder, tension, joints, cardiovascular health… The quantities of this salt hidden in industrial products are mostly too high, so it is good to limit your consumption of prepared and processed foods from the food industry.
Why choose Himalayan salt?
I recommend that you use Himalayan salt.
It has been around for hundreds of millions of years, so you might as well know that it is the oldest salt in the world, far from the refined table salt you consume every day.
Himalayan salt is the purest salt in existence, it is unprocessed and protected from pollution because the deposits are still very deep today in the Himalayan mountain ranges. This natural salt is therefore of exceptional quality and will be easily assimilated by your body.
It is a rock salt so it is not iodized. It is pink because it is oxidized by the iron it contains.
It contains all the good trace elements necessary for your body such as iron, potassium, magnesium, calcium, chloride, copper, phosphorus, silicon, manganese, zinc… More than 80 trace elements found in our body are counted in Himalayan salt!
The benefits of Himalayan salt are mainly detoxifying, rebalancing and regenerating:
- It allows a good circulation of water in your body;
- brings you a healthy pH because it will reduce acid reflux;
- reinforces the bones thanks to its calcium in particular;
- considerably reduces muscle cramps;
- can also reduce all types of inflammation;
- Balances blood pressure if taken with water.
It can also help you fall asleep easily and helps you sleep well.
Himalayan salt will therefore be your ally in facilitating your fasting period!
