Salt

Sodium is one of the essential electrolytes in the body. All four cationic electrolytes (sodium, potasiium, magnesium, and calcium) are available in unrefined salt, as are other vital minerals needed for optimal bodily function. Too much or too little salt in the diet can lead to muscle cramps, dizziness, or even an electrolyte disturbance, which can cause dangerous, even fatal, neurological problems. Sea salt is often sold for use as a condiment. Because it contains trace amounts of other minerals which are removed in the refining process, it may have health advantages over normal table salt. Certain sea salts are also used in the production of bath salts and cosmetic products.
Spare salt consumption has been linked to:
-Asthma
-Heartburn
-Reduces bone density
-Stomach Cancer
-Hypertension
-Death(Ingestion of large amounts of salt in a short time (about 1 g per kg of body weight) can be incurable.)
