🌿 Potential Benefits (Traditional Uses)
For those over 50, wellness often becomes about balance—choosing what’s natural, time-tested, and kind to the body. While neither Himalayan pink salt nor Celtic sea salt are medical treatments, they’ve both been traditionally appreciated for these gentle benefits:
- Electrolyte Support: Both salts contain trace minerals like magnesium, potassium, and calcium, which help the body stay hydrated and balanced—especially after sleep or mild exertion.
- Digestive Comfort: In many cultures, a warm glass of salt water in the morning is believed to help stimulate digestion and ease occasional sluggishness.
- Skin & Relaxation Rituals: Salt baths made with unrefined salts can soothe sore muscles and provide a grounding, calming experience—especially helpful for stress relief or before bedtime.
- Flavor Without Heaviness: Many people find that unrefined salts have a fuller, more complex flavor, helping them season food more consciously and enjoy the natural taste of their meals.
