"Salt ... Is Just Salt!" DMGThe Plantation MD insists anyone who even CONSIDERS a difference in quality between ordinary chemically processed table salt and natural salt is a complete moron.
But the Plantation MD begs a question: if corporate Medical Doctors are so smart ... why are their patients so sick?

Come on bra' the news from "FOX" this morning informed its viewers about salt intake and the dangers of sodium.It seems to reason that taking a closer look at the "salts" we use would be an intelligent course of action to reduce heart problems, strokes, blood pressure..etc... but then again this would hurt a lot of "big pockets"...
Some of us have been so tricked...bamboozled...hoodwinked... when we thought we were being educated...myself included!

Argue? No MOTI, it takes two people to argue. I can't count any of your offerings as holding up your end of the conversation. I'm waiting for you to stop eating carbohydrates. And plug your ass into the wall.CNu, It's not Moorish science, it's MoRONIC pseudoscience. The attempts to draw me into a conversation is an attempt to legitimize their "point of view".
Anyone with a 6th grade understanding of chemistry and biology knows this video is beyond a shadow of a doubt the workings of a total moron.
Ces, MOT, and Wax are either playing an elaborate prank, or they really are just that stupid. No more need be said.

Yawn.Doc in unbelievable.
"Salt, has been vilified and denigrated, despite the fact that it is essential to life by your boys in the white coat.
Check this: Salt licks are essential for cattle to maintain health and they die without it. Cattle will walk for miles to get to a salt lick. When they replaced the salt licks with Table salt(sodium chloride) all the cows died within 2 weeks from hypertension.WAKE UP!!!!!!
it is not common table salt that the body needs in order to sustain life. It is sodium. Sodium just happens to be an element in common table salt which is known as sodium chloride and that is where the confusion exists. Therefore, salt is not a necessary compound in order for the body to survive, but rather sodium is the necessary life sustaining element. Ironically, sodium is found in all plants so you are getting plenty of sodium everyday without even realizing it every time you eat a food that comes from a plant.
Studies by the Department of Medicine at the Medical College of Wisconsin have shown that blood pressure is not increased by a high sodium intake unless it is accompanied by chloride. Common table salt being sodium chloride, therefore, actually destroys life rather than sustains it as we are led to believe.
If you are addicted to certain foods because they appear to taste so good, well they may be loaded with common table salt.
Food appears to taste better with salt, but it is only an illusion. It is the salt you like and not the food. Have you ever noticed how much more of a certain type of food you will eat when it contains just the right amount of salt? You are convinced that it tastes delicious, but it is only the inclusion of just the right amount of salt that tricks the brain into believing that the food tastes better.
Again make sure you use natural sea (or rock) salt, not table salt, which is merely sodium chloride (NaCl). It is table salt that is responsible for raising blood pressure and causing heart problems. Sea salt (Celtic) is the best form and contains many minerals, like magnesium, calcium, potassium, sodium, chloride, sulfate, phosphate and many other trace minerals.
Sea salt does not raise blood pressure and is very health promoting.
The importance of all trace minerals and electrolytes on our health cannot be stressed enough.
Trace minerals and electrolytes are the spark of life, and without them we simply wouldn't function.
The terms electrolytes, ions, minerals may be used as other terms for salt.

hahahahahahahahahahah
mmmmm...............................
Powerade Zero? ion 4 :) 3 bucks for aspartame, color dye, potassium ,calcium, magnesium, and sodium in acidic water. Genius.
NO Calories Energy Goup!?!?!?!?!? hahahahahahahahahahaha

Electrolytes are ionized salts (minerals) found in body fluids and the blood stream. In solution, or dissolved and transformed in water, they can conduct an electric current.
The whole body is a bioelectric organism and the nervous system and brain also operate on electrical energy. Electrolytes are both the "switch" and the energy source.
All cellular structures become alive through electrolytic activity. Life begins with electrolytes. Trace minerals carry the life force in our bodies more than any other substance.
Salt adds minerals (ions) to our foods and enhances its flavor. Without salt, our body cannot make adequate amounts of HCl (stomach acid).
With low levels of HCl, our digestion is impaired and we cannot absorb minerals.
Minerals are needed for activating enzymes, and other important metabolic functions. Therefore, one can see the idiocy of taking antacids (or avoiding salt) which block mineral absorption.Doc prescribes those :).
Low levels of HCl can be translated into disease quite easily, for without minerals one cannot be healthy.
Salt is also needed to maintain osmotic balance (water), to control pH levels and to help activate enzymes.
Salt serves as a natural buffer for acidity and through osmotic mechanisms, salt helps to control the amount of water within the cells (intracellular fluid) and around the cells (extracellular fluid).
Electrolytes are essential to the production of enzymes, the function of cells, and in maintaining a normal pH balance in the body and digestive system.
Electrolytes also maintain normal fluid balance including osmosis (the cell's internal and external fluid pressure), and blood pressure.
The oceans give us a natural sea salt with the most exquisite taste and a physiologically-vital mineral mix.
Today, every common table salt is artificial and sadly pales beside the real sea salt. Out of the richest spectrum of 92 essential minerals found in the ocean, the industrial refined variety retains only two!
Debased white table salt deserves all of its bad name and all the misdeeds as charged.
For the last time , do not confuse common refined table salt (sodium chloride) with natural unrefined (and health-promoting) sea salt.
Salt is the single element required for the proper breakdown of plants into usable and assimilable human food.
Wax,
Go read a basic book on human physiology before you call my name again.
dmg he just quoted about 7 basic books and studies on human physiology. You keep calling hotwax stupid but you never say what he is wrong about. You are a doctor. Tell me. I want to know! Can the type of salt we eat help or hinder our health?!
Perhaps he should actually READ THEM, rather than quoting titles he hasn't laid eyes on.
The short answer Anon, is NO. Sodium, is sodium is sodium. Sea salt, table salt. The difference is the "impurities" found in things like Pink Himalayan salt (look up the composition).
Cat's like Wax and our host want you to BUY some overpriced bullshit because of some magical mysterious properties only they seem to know about...because you know us physician types are only interested in making money, and "need" our patients (excuse me customers..) to remain sick.
Main point, limit your excess salt intake no matter what kind you use, eat reasonably, and don't hang out on the couch. Fairly simple, unsexy, inexpensive advice. No magic bullets.
And yes, Wax is still an idiot...as he distorts facts.
