Salt.An exploration.

Another subject which has been in the news again this week is none other than Salt and the fact that we are consuming far more of the stuff than we should in our diets. Yes, this is very true for those who consume vast quantities of pre - packaged food or the so called convenient ready meals. These things do contain higher levels of salt than is really necessary (or good for you). However, the reality is that it is not the actual salt that is bad for you but the Sodium Ferrocyanide or the Magnesium Hydroxide Carbonate that is added as an anti - caking agent that is bad for you. So, when buying salt, always check the label to see what it contains. In truth, the only thing that should be in your salt is SALT. To guarantee that you are buying 100% pure salt, with no additives. I recommend buying Maldon Sea Salt or a similar variety, depending on what is available in your region.
