We are the salty humans

The cure for anything is salt water: sweat, tears and the sea. We are the salty folk. We cry salt, swear salt and the cells in our bodies are drenched in salty liquid. Without salt we would not be able to live. Salt is an essential nutrient that our body depends on to live. We’ve all heard we need to cut down on salt, but in reality most of us need more salt to better our health.

We naturally want to consume 3000-4000mg of sodium a day to remain in an optimal state in which we put the least amount of stress on the body. Sodium is needed to maintain the optimal amount of blood in our bodies; it's even needed for the heart to pump blood throughout our bodies. Salt is essential for digestion, cell to cell communication, bone formation and strength, and prevention of dehydration.

Our body relies on electrolytes which are made up of sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium. Electrolytes help carry electrical impulses that control many of our bodies functions. Without sodium intake, our blood volume goes down, which can affect our organs. Our brain and body automatically determine how much sodium we require, through our hypothalamus, which drives us to crave salt or feel thirsty.

  • 2500mg Sodium

    Celtic salt is naturally harvested and unrefined,
    meaning it retains a spectrum of minerals beyond just sodium and chloride. These trace minerals include magnesium, calcium, potassium, sulfate, and others, which are all vital for proper hydration. These minerals support various physiological processes that contribute to better fluid balance, muscle function, and cell hydration.

  • 250mg Potassium

    Works alongside sodium to regulate fluid balance and prevent excessive water loss. A proper balance of potassium and sodium is essential for keeping cells hydrated, especially in maintaining proper blood pressure and fluid
    volume.

  • 250mg Magnesium

    Helps regulate water retention in cells and supports muscle and nerve function. Magnesium deficiency can lead to dehydration, muscle cramps, and
    fatigue, so consuming Celtic salt can help replenish magnesium stores.
