Salt supports detoxification of harmful chemicals. Low-salt diets impair this process and worsen toxicity from bromine, a common modern toxin.

The endocrine system functions like a symphony—when one gland is imbalanced, others suffer. Adrenal and thyroid glands are especially interdependent. Poor adrenal function impairs thyroid hormone, and thyroid issues strain adrenals. Salt intake (particularly refined vs. unrefined) plays a central role in this balance.

Most people assume “salt is salt.” In reality, refined table salt and unrefined natural salt differ dramatically in composition, processing, and effects on the body. Choosing the right salt supports hydration, electrolyte function, pH balance, and overall wellness while the wrong choice can contribute to deficiencies and chronic issues.
