Paul, I am a huge fan of your content but I simply can’t get behind using kosher salt or any highly refined “sea salt”. Beware of sea salts that are marketed as such, but are not the real deal. The big difference is in how it is produced. Kosher salt and fake sea salts are industrially processed and stripped of all the trace minerals leaving pure sodium chloride. So it’s no surprise that they don’t have any trace heavy metals either. I’m all about minimizing the heavy metal exposure and finding the cleanest sea salt, but many good sea salts are produced in small scale operations with nothing but raking and evaporation leaving all the important nutritious trace minerals intact. Just do a quick RUclips search about how sea salt is produced and then do one about how industrial table salt is produced. And kosher salt isn’t really much different than table salt and its process processing. Check out the book Salted (especially the first chapter or two ) by Mark Bitterman for more details on the history of salt and the rise of big salt.
@@dean7673 Exactly. It's like worrying about re-minerializing reverse osmosis water. The amount of nutritional nutrients is so small compared to food that it's really ridiculous to worry about it. I would rather have pure sodium chloride than salt with a bunch of heavy metals any day.
Not that i think processed salt is great but it doesnt matter how sea salt is produced our oceans are polluted so any salt from it is also gomna have heavy metals
@@OFFGRIDwithDOUGSTACYno, all these channels pushing particular overpriced brands of salt and electrolyte powders and various other things is what is bs. They're making money lying to you, clearly they don't know anything about what's in these products they are pushing until someone does tests on it. I knew this would happen.
Although I use many different salts, Celtic Sea Salt is best for “medicinal” intake of trace mineral source and that’s why it’s been my go-to for well over 20 years. Seems to be a proportionate ratio of nutrients : metals. Diamond is heavily processed and therefore not legit sea salt. Hence no metals. Basically sodium chloride. To simplify: Using something like Jacobson for your table salt and Celtic for your more potent “medicinal” salt is a good strategy.
That is pretty much how I feel too. I have been been keeping my family stocked with Redmonds salt for a couple of years now and NOW it's not good either. Seems like every item we go out of our way to find and make an attempt to be healthier, eventually gets shot down with everything else. It's dizzying how much conflicting info there is on something as simple as food.
yeah so stop enjoying food altogether, there's this new diet it consists of green tea and sunlight. It's all you need! it cures cancer too. Just make sure you get high grown organic green tea!
Thank you for all of the valuable information you share! I appreciate and support your work and love using the Heart and Soil products so far! I think it’s worth considering what Redmonds says about their salts regarding the “heavy metals” and since Ive been personally tested for heavy metals multiple times while using only Redmonds salt and have not seen this as a factor, it would be worth reviewing the big picture with natually occurring metals vs environmental metal contamination. From their site, “How does this apply to Real Salt? If you look at the Real Salt Elemental Analysis, you’ll see that Real Salt contains trace amounts of 65 minerals, including a few “heavy” metals. All of these elements were put there by Mother Nature (we would never add heavy metals to our products) millions of years before humans began making refined products or polluting the earth. The naturally occurring elements in Real Salt are typically bound to other elements and present in an inert form that’s generally considered safe rather than the humanmade form, which tends to be more harmful to people and the environment.”

SOUNDS LIKE YOU NEED MORE TESTING....I'LL LISTEN WHEN THE TESTING IS DONE.
Jacobsen salt has no trace minerals... it is just pure salt. Out of the three other options you would benefit more from the Baja Gold Sea Salt which still has lead profiles that are well below the 8.8ug intake per day for females of childbearing age. This way you still get a good mineral profile from this salt. Your blood has the same spectral profile as the ocean... ocean water has been used as plasma to keep people alive by Rene Quinton and other doctors of the past.
This is a pain to see and hear about so much stuff messing with our health. We are so done and just hope to stay alive and well as long as possible. Stay alive and well and God bless you all.
I don't see where Diamond Crystal Salt is a sea salt. It doesn't have minerals because it has been processed out. The same with Jacobsen Salt. It started out as mineral salt and the minerals have been processed out naturally, not with chlorox, etc. like mortons. So the least amount of lead, etc. would be the baja gold mineral salt, making it the winner if you want the 91 minerals we need.
Glad you’re testing Baja gold since I bought a $50 bag because of Gary brecka. I first did Redmond’s and then I switched to Celtic and then Baja. Guess we have to switch again
So crazy! A year or so I switched from Diamond Crystal Kosher to Redmond Real Salt presuming that mining ancient sea beds would be better. Clearly we need lots more testing of our food! Will be interesting to see how Redmond and these other companies respond. Honestly the amount of other minerals that come from salt are not that significant compared to other food sources so I'd rather not be having heavy metals from this one controllable source in order to get small amounts of trace minerals.
I was using the blue celtic bag per Barb O’neille’s suggestion and then got redmonds delivered yesterday after I saw his post but before this video dropped. Now I have to wait to buy Jacobsens 🥴
What is your opinion on glasses or contacts? Do you believe you can naturally heal vision by diet or lifestyle? What about the fact that contacts are made from plastic?
I honestly feel that microplastics are the bigger issue with most salts being directly store in plastic and the fact we are exposed to it much more than lead
@@allenbrost9564 maybe learn to read? I never said lead is not an issue. I am and do worry about both, I simply worry about microplastics more. This seems very logical as I am exposed to lead exponentially less than plastic. In the moment I am in contact with several items made of plastic and rarely touch lead. If I am exposed to 1000 times more plastic but lead is 100 times more toxic I should still be more worried about microplastics. Obviously we don’t know those numbers exactly but plastic is likely the bigger issue in the current world
@@burritodog3634Using used clothing made from synthetics is like reusing a plastic water bottle that contains PFA; it continues to shed microplastics. If a person is primarily worried about the coating that is sprayed on clothing, giving it more significant stain, hydrophobia, and perhaps wrinkle, insect repellent or fire retardant can usually be removed by running the clothing through the wash a handful of times. Of course, if the coating was the motivation for acquiring the clothing in the first place, that defeats the purpose.

Paul how about the nutrients in the less contaminated salts? I understand the net benefit being outweighed by the contaminants but as you're getting into diamond and Jacobson- are you finding a diverse / rich range of minerals in those salts? They aren't just sodium chloride right? Gary brecka convinced me to go hard on the Celtic salt and I love it and find it effective for sinus issues and oral health- going to have to really reduce my use of it now.
Thanks for doing the research on this stuff FOR US, Paul. I know you don’t do this purely to stress us out. You just want to help and we all need to decide what to do with the information so graciously given. Thanks again buddy! ✊🏾
Why were you surprised and shocked that salt contains these heavy metals - naturally? Many Foods Contain heavy metals like Aluminum, Arsenic, cadmium, lead, etc. Everyone would exceed .5 micrograms per day if they followed this. And actually, the Prop 65 .5 micrograms per day is for reproductivity. The Prop 65 safe harbor level is actually 15 micrograms per day per serving and none of these salts exceed the Prop 65 level for the average consumer. Baked goods: Steamed breads, buns, cakes, muffins, pancakes, waffles, and coconut tarts Cereal products: Cereals and cereal-based foods like bread, rice, cakes, biscuits, and pastries Dairy products: Cheese MEAT: Yes, meat can contain aluminum, cadmium, Arsenic, and lead but the amount is very small, just as in salt. Vegetables: Some vegetables like mushrooms, spinach, radish, and lettuce Herbs and spices: Tea leaves, cocoa, and some herbs and spices Frozen pizzas: Contain up to 14 mg of aluminum from sodium aluminum phosphate Ready-to-eat restaurant pizzas: Contain 0.03-0.09 mg of aluminum Other foods: seafood People are also exposed to these heavy metals through AIR and DRINKING water.
I was surprised at the amount of heavy metals in salts because it exceeds the safe levels for lead intake. Heavy metals can occur naturally in the foods we eat but this report is showing levels that are far beyond safe… The Environmental Working Group has spoke extensively about the dangers of heavy metals in drinking water too. I strongly believe we should be extremely careful about heavy metals in food.
@@Paulsaladinomdyes but your prop 65 levels are wrong. It is .5 micrograms for reproductive (I.e pregnant and infants), and 15 micrograms daily per serving for everyone else. And prop 65 levels are 1,000 times less the “normal” recommended rates.
The only thing that really shits me is that in Australia, I’m paying heaps for Redmonds salt because it’s fuggin expensive here. I’m talking $55 for 2 bags of the stuff. I guess I’ll go back to using supermarket pink salt for $5 kg
Switched to Redmond's from Diamond because Diamond has anti caking agents and thought that was making it less pure salt. Even when you think you are being clean you can't avoid the dirty in the food supply
A few months ago I did a heavy metal challenge test and found that I had high lead and less high mercury. My main salt for years was Redmonds and some Celtic. I recents switched to Diamond and Jacobsen.
Regarding the Celtic Salt -- 💯% disagree. I was not absorbing any pink salt or regular Badia Sea Salt. I switched over to the Celtic Salt and within 1 day noticed a big improvement in electrolyte absorption. My cells are very happy with this salt now. They are not all wonky like they were with the pink or sea salt. EVERY BODY is different and so there we have to listen to our body and how it reacts. ONE SINGLE study does not make the world go round Paul. For me personally, not supporting that study at all.
There are ways to rid yourself of the heavy metals. The cleaner the salt the less trace minerals. It’s about knowing what salt to use for what purpose and when and how much to use.
I switched to Redmonds years ago because Paul Saladino promoted Redmonds as a healthy alternative. Now he is here telling me that I will get cancer, be dumb and die if I consume Redmonds. He reminds me of a 1980's used car salesman trying to sell me the family Truckster Wagon.
Everybody is on a learning curve here. I'm just grateful he takes the time to do the research I can't do. It's okay to be fluid with changing information thats what this age is all about instead of blaming/shaming.
Ive been using Celtic Sea Salt for the last year and when you posted this study it blew my mine how much natural lead was in it. I ended up picking Colima Sea Salt virtually no heavy metals but still get all those trace minerals.
I worked on lead mines with no real issue. When I stopped mining my lead levels increased dramatically. Couldn't work it out & consulted with occ hygiene specialists. Definitely reckon it is the salt as doing quite a big amount over the last 5 yrs of carnivore
I just read something about Celtic having, like 84 trace minerals including some good magnesiums. It also said Himalayan Sea Salt had about 80 and the rest next to none. Can you please do an update and include a discussion on the trace minerals? None of these others are mentioned specifically in that trace mineral discussion
One thing to note, the fine ground salts must have more exposure to heavy metals in the process of grinding it small. Just a potential probable cause. I’d like to see the results of Celtic Grey salt in comparison to the fine ground
@@unsu-ss-chem Yes they are. Redmans salt for example is from the earth and has no additives or pollution since it hadnt been touched at all when it was discovered. The makeup of the minerals is completely natural and the heavy metals are not harmful when in their natural organic form in this way. The danger comes from heavy metals that have been added due to pollution or contamination.
Just a thought: if you test table salt (e.g., from Morton), you probably will find zero trace of all the heavy metals as well. So is it possible that Diamond crystal is not real sea salt?
My train of thought as well. Most, if not all, salts are all highly processed and maybe those that are more processed, like Mortons and Diamond are stripped of contaminates but are load with other chemiclas, like bleach. I tend to agree with you that those aren't real sea salt. All salts go through processing. I'm from Hawaii and we are banned from selling sea salt made in the traditional way because the FDA says it's not "sterile." I make my own sea salt straight from the cleaniest parts of the Pacific. Real sea salt made in any traditional way does not look like the sea salt sold in shops. Real sea salt is not uniform in shape, like all the ones in stores.
I use Volcanic Pink Salt from Quantum Nutrition Labs, it is pricy so I use it just as a finishing salt on my meat and eggs. I put a small pinch in my RO water as well. I will order some Jacobsen Salt also, thanks for the info Paul.
Celtic salt is the one , which has the most minerals, followed by Himalayan salt ( that you even don't talk about it ! ). Celtic is not processed, nor bleached , nor refined . This is more the people, who eat table salt, who will becone sick with various symptoms on longterm ...

Paul did you run these tests your self or did you just copy it from LEAD SAFE MAMA article "How much Lead is in salt? Which salt is safest to use for cooking? Is Himalayan salt safe?"
The 3rd. party certifier, Mamavation, mentioned in the article that the toxicity from some salts does not necessarily mean it came from the salt itself. The toxicity may have come from the mining of the salt... or during other processes such as the packaging itself.
You didn’t talk about the micronutrients/minerals in the salts. That’s the only reason I switched to Baja Gold was for the mineral content. You need to talk about that. So many people on RUclips push the Baja Gold and Celtic because of the trace minerals that help the body. Please talk about this!!!! By the way the amount of metals in Baja Gold vary a lot per batch and in the yearly tests.
Response from Redmonds Salt Salt per day to reach this level. While it’s true that trace amounts of some unwanted naturally occurring elements are found in many foods, including Real Salt, we believe in the benefits of consuming natural, unrefined products over highly processed alternatives. These natural products have valuable minerals and are less likely to contain junk additives. For us, the trade-off between some unwanted trace elements and the simple, clean, and real purity of a natural product is worth it, but we respect everyone's individual choices in their pursuit of health. Your health journey is personal, and we’re here to support you with information to help you make the best decision for you! Was this article helpful?

So crazy! A year or so I switched from Diamond Crystal Kosher to Redmond Real Salt presuming that mining ancient sea beds would be better. Clearly we need lots more testing of our food! Will be interesting to see how Redmond and these other companies respond.
Honestly the amount of other minerals that come from salt are not that significant compared to other food sources so I'd rather not be having heavy metals from this one controllable source in order to get small amounts of trace minerals.
Redmond has a video in their site already. Go watch. Been there for a long time.
I was using the blue celtic bag per Barb O’neille’s suggestion and then got redmonds delivered yesterday after I saw his post but before this video dropped. Now I have to wait to buy Jacobsens 🥴
What is your opinion on glasses or contacts? Do you believe you can naturally heal vision by diet or lifestyle? What about the fact that contacts are made from plastic?
I honestly feel that microplastics are the bigger issue with most salts being directly store in plastic and the fact we are exposed to it much more than lead
Really?? Plenty of data on how bad lead is for humans. I think you should worry about both.
@@allenbrost9564 maybe learn to read? I never said lead is not an issue. I am and do worry about both, I simply worry about microplastics more. This seems very logical as I am exposed to lead exponentially less than plastic. In the moment I am in contact with several items made of plastic and rarely touch lead. If I am exposed to 1000 times more plastic but lead is 100 times more toxic I should still be more worried about microplastics. Obviously we don’t know those numbers exactly but plastic is likely the bigger issue in the current world
@bigfootgoesboom I would respond, but since I can't read, not really sure what u said. Probably nothing important anyway. Cheers.
Would be awesome to see Paul do a vid on clothing. primarily on avoiding pfas among other things
Anyone concerned about this should read labels to understand what the fabrics are made of.
Especially the color grey which always has polyester in it. Eeeww.
Avoid all clothing but keep covered up so you can avoid the sun but make sure you get some sun.
buy thrift store clothing that has it all washed out
@@burritodog3634Using used clothing made from synthetics is like reusing a plastic water bottle that contains PFA; it continues to shed microplastics.
If a person is primarily worried about the coating that is sprayed on clothing, giving it more significant stain, hydrophobia, and perhaps wrinkle, insect repellent or fire retardant can usually be removed by running the clothing through the wash a handful of times.
Of course, if the coating was the motivation for acquiring the clothing in the first place, that defeats the purpose.
I cry when I prepare my own food and that’s how I use salt in my food
Everything is toxic. I feel the system is rigged. I hope Robert Kennedy can fixes these problems or attempt with Trump24

he just promoted mcdonalds the other day & you're spouting this "healthy" nonsense...grow up already, it doesn't matter who is president. they're all puppets. imagine rooting for the other side of the same coin.
Trump only cares about profit. Good luck with that.
If you watch the whole video of the diamond salt is clean
I use Redmond salt exclusively
0:36 Taurine protects against the harmful effects of heavy-metals. Supplement 2-10 grams per day.
What do you use for the taurine?
@@tct84I buy the bulk bags (1kg). I don't recommend specific brands.

doesnt this mean just eating meat then with regular pink salt should be fine then?
@@robotmechanicalwhizkid2521 Cooked meat is low in taurine (this is what *_"Pottenger's cats"_* actually showed), and all experimental mammals show improved health with supplemental taurine, regardless of diet.
Im still using Celtic sea salt
So between microplastics and heavy metals… which salt am I supposed to buy!?
😅
U sure cargill didn’t fund this study?
maldon sea salt
@@pablomedina9895 why?
You did not mention Pink Himalayan Salt ? ? ?
I know that's what I'm most curious about
@@kakusei3672garbage that’s why
That's what I use. Not knowing anything about this issue, my guess is that it is related to metals in the ocean water.
@Amna.Talpur that s what I use. 😊
I also want to know ..
Paul how about the nutrients in the less contaminated salts? I understand the net benefit being outweighed by the contaminants but as you're getting into diamond and Jacobson- are you finding a diverse / rich range of minerals in those salts? They aren't just sodium chloride right? Gary brecka convinced me to go hard on the Celtic salt and I love it and find it effective for sinus issues and oral health- going to have to really reduce my use of it now.
Thanks for doing the research on this stuff FOR US, Paul. I know you don’t do this purely to stress us out. You just want to help and we all need to decide what to do with the information so graciously given. Thanks again buddy! ✊🏾
Why were you surprised and shocked that salt contains these heavy metals - naturally? Many Foods Contain heavy metals like Aluminum, Arsenic, cadmium, lead, etc. Everyone would exceed .5 micrograms per day if they followed this. And actually, the Prop 65 .5 micrograms per day is for reproductivity. The Prop 65 safe harbor level is actually 15 micrograms per day per serving and none of these salts exceed the Prop 65 level for the average consumer.
Baked goods: Steamed breads, buns, cakes, muffins, pancakes, waffles, and coconut tarts
Cereal products: Cereals and cereal-based foods like bread, rice, cakes, biscuits, and pastries
Dairy products: Cheese
MEAT: Yes, meat can contain aluminum, cadmium, Arsenic, and lead but the amount is very small, just as in salt.
Vegetables: Some vegetables like mushrooms, spinach, radish, and lettuce
Herbs and spices: Tea leaves, cocoa, and some herbs and spices
Frozen pizzas: Contain up to 14 mg of aluminum from sodium aluminum phosphate
Ready-to-eat restaurant pizzas: Contain 0.03-0.09 mg of aluminum
Other foods: seafood
People are also exposed to these heavy metals through AIR and DRINKING water.
I was surprised at the amount of heavy metals in salts because it exceeds the safe levels for lead intake. Heavy metals can occur naturally in the foods we eat but this report is showing levels that are far beyond safe…
The Environmental Working Group has spoke extensively about the dangers of heavy metals in drinking water too.
I strongly believe we should be extremely careful about heavy metals in food.
@@Paulsaladinomdyes but your prop 65 levels are wrong. It is .5 micrograms for reproductive (I.e pregnant and infants), and 15 micrograms daily per serving for everyone else. And prop 65 levels are 1,000 times less the “normal” recommended rates.
No wonder i can’t remember anything and i thought it was just old age. 🤦♀️
The only thing that really shits me is that in Australia, I’m paying heaps for Redmonds salt because it’s fuggin expensive here. I’m talking $55 for 2 bags of the stuff. I guess I’ll go back to using supermarket pink salt for $5 kg
Switched to Redmond's from Diamond because Diamond has anti caking agents and thought that was making it less pure salt. Even when you think you are being clean you can't avoid the dirty in the food supply
Hope to see a study soon on microplastics
A few months ago I did a heavy metal challenge test and found that I had high lead and less high mercury. My main salt for years was Redmonds and some Celtic. I recents switched to Diamond and Jacobsen.
Wonderful, another thing ive got to get out of my diet. Literally just bought Redmond refill few days back. When will thus end??!!!
How is the healthy mineral content in Jacobsen and Diamond? Have they washed them away?
That's what I was thinking
Yes they don't have any good minerals like the others do.
Very true. I use baja gold specifically for the trace minerals
@@djrichardcrest2001 are you concerned about the lead?
You can’t filter out minerals and the bad heavy metals.
Regarding the Celtic Salt -- 💯% disagree. I was not absorbing any pink salt or regular Badia Sea Salt. I switched over to the Celtic Salt and within 1 day noticed a big improvement in electrolyte absorption. My cells are very happy with this salt now. They are not all wonky like they were with the pink or sea salt.
EVERY BODY is different and so there we have to listen to our body and how it reacts.
ONE SINGLE study does not make the world go round Paul. For me personally, not supporting that study at all.
The electrolytes are great. It’s the heavy metal toxicity building up in the background which isn’t good
I don't believe anybody can feel the difference between different salt on their bodies electrolyte levels
completely ridiculous
There are ways to rid yourself of the heavy metals. The cleaner the salt the less trace minerals.
It’s about knowing what salt to use for what purpose and when and how much to use.
I switched to Redmonds years ago because Paul Saladino promoted Redmonds as a healthy alternative. Now he is here telling me that I will get cancer, be dumb and die if I consume Redmonds.
He reminds me of a 1980's used car salesman trying to sell me the family Truckster Wagon.
Everybody is on a learning curve here. I'm just grateful he takes the time to do the research I can't do. It's okay to be fluid with changing information thats what this age is all about instead of blaming/shaming.
I’m happy he is not too proud to correct himself like most doctors are. Trust me.
Funny. 😂😂
Paul is full of it....
Redmond is great salt
PERIOD
@@OFFGRIDwithDOUGSTACY I mean if Redmond had a unleaded version, you would pick that right?
We definitely need a second analysis
Redmond is fine.
This micro worrying has become tiring.
Diamond crystal and jacobsen are the best for avoiding heavy metals. This is just a reminder for myself, LoL.
The study is not reliable
Ive been using Celtic Sea Salt for the last year and when you posted this study it blew my mine how much natural lead was in it. I ended up picking Colima Sea Salt virtually no heavy metals but still get all those trace minerals.
What about pink Himalayan salt?
That ain't sea salt. Well, not as we know it. It's an ancient dry mountain sea bed but it ain't sea salt.
I heard it was one of the highest…
I worked on lead mines with no real issue. When I stopped mining my lead levels increased dramatically. Couldn't work it out & consulted with occ hygiene specialists. Definitely reckon it is the salt as doing quite a big amount over the last 5 yrs of carnivore
I just read something about Celtic having, like 84 trace minerals including some good magnesiums. It also said Himalayan Sea Salt had about 80 and the rest next to none. Can you please do an update and include a discussion on the trace minerals? None of these others are mentioned specifically in that trace mineral discussion
One thing to note, the fine ground salts must have more exposure to heavy metals in the process of grinding it small. Just a potential probable cause. I’d like to see the results of Celtic Grey salt in comparison to the fine ground
Organic heavy metals are perfectly fine they affect the body differently. I'm going to keep using redmons
It's the accumulation that matters. Everything in moderation, friend.
@Billbeaux Everything in moderation is bad advice
No, they are not fine
Organic arsenic isn't as bad as inorganic arsenic but organic mercury is far, far more toxic.
@@unsu-ss-chem Yes they are. Redmans salt for example is from the earth and has no additives or pollution since it hadnt been touched at all when it was discovered. The makeup of the minerals is completely natural and the heavy metals are not harmful when in their natural organic form in this way. The danger comes from heavy metals that have been added due to pollution or contamination.
We are infinite beings. Our spirit never actually dies. Infinite Love.
Just a thought: if you test table salt (e.g., from Morton), you probably will find zero trace of all the heavy metals as well. So is it possible that Diamond crystal is not real sea salt?
My train of thought as well. Most, if not all, salts are all highly processed and maybe those that are more processed, like Mortons and Diamond are stripped of contaminates but are load with other chemiclas, like bleach. I tend to agree with you that those aren't real sea salt.
All salts go through processing. I'm from Hawaii and we are banned from selling sea salt made in the traditional way because the FDA says it's not "sterile." I make my own sea salt straight from the cleaniest parts of the Pacific. Real sea salt made in any traditional way does not look like the sea salt sold in shops. Real sea salt is not uniform in shape, like all the ones in stores.
I use Volcanic Pink Salt from Quantum Nutrition Labs, it is pricy so I use it just as a finishing salt on my meat and eggs. I put a small pinch in my RO water as well. I will order some Jacobsen Salt also, thanks for the info Paul.
Paul, we need to look into this study. I’m suspicious when the biggest company has the cleanest salt. Who funded this study
Nobody knows about Seasonello Sea Salt, and I'm totally cool with that, more for me!
LOL!
Ive got to the point, that ANYTHING coming out of Calif is EXTREME, UNREALISTIC! BOTH with STANDARDS AND PEOPLE!
Can you do another discussing the mineral content of these salts? I know minerals are super important in salt.
Eye-opening. I am switching to the other two. Was a Celtic salt and Redman’s salt user for years.😳 thank you Dr. Paul.
Celtic salt is the one , which has the most minerals, followed by Himalayan salt ( that you even don't talk about it ! ).
Celtic is not processed, nor bleached , nor refined .
This is more the people, who eat table salt, who will becone sick with various symptoms on longterm ...
Unfortunately, it’s dangerously high in lead…
@@Paulsaladinomd why didn’t you mention pink salt?
@@Paulsaladinomdtoxic salt is been helping me with my high blood pressure and three stents in my heart and no medication no more and also cayenne pepper
For my German fellas: Saldoro Ursalz ( Kaufland/ Rewe )
I think we know what company paid for the study
Between *LMNT* and *Redmond* being promoted by Carnivore channels I am glad I never jumped on the band wagon of being "influenced" by random people on RUclips.
*ANY* promotion is about making money and not necessarily about your best interest.
Where is the evidence that Baja gold sea salt contains that much lead?
I use Nordur from Iceland. I have been using Celtic before but have read that the most pristine waters are around greenland/iceland, but i have no evidence but it taste good!
Just when you think you're eating the best food, someone posts a video of how toxic it all is.
Let's go Diamond Crystal! I just bought a bunch for dry brining, now I feel safe about my purchase!
I love redmond salt❤. Plus i don't live inside the bubble.
I have been doing lion diet/ fasting for over 3 years, and i use redmond salt since. I feel healthier at 53 than i was at 23, especialy since i dich the SAD toxic seed oils so cal faje foods
Can u do a review on water filters - all kinds over the counter . Under sink, reverse osmosis, proone, bleuvua, berkey and the aquatru. Thx
Paul did you run these tests your self or did you just copy it from LEAD SAFE MAMA article "How much Lead is in salt? Which salt is safest to use for cooking? Is Himalayan salt safe?"
Another fantastic video!!!
He put a brother on! 😊
I didn't see any of his brothers in the video. I don't know if he has any brothers.
Link to the study?
Surely rock salt shouldnt have pollution
Isn’t rock salt the same as Celtic salt?
The 3rd. party certifier, Mamavation, mentioned in the article that the toxicity from some salts does not necessarily mean it came from the salt itself. The toxicity may have come from the mining of the salt... or during other processes such as the packaging itself.
@@theresameade6633 rock salt is literally millions of years old.
@@jeffgarmon1 I suppose that can be using cobalt lined containers in Pakistan, where they mine pink salt. All very odd.
Paul, look up SaltVerk from Icleland. Very clean salt. Or, Vera Salt as a close 2nd.
This dude has fallen off the deep end. To many rabbit holes to go down. He's about to start selling his own salt is what it sounds like.
denial
You didn’t talk about the micronutrients/minerals in the salts. That’s the only reason I switched to Baja Gold was for the mineral content. You need to talk about that. So many people on RUclips push the Baja Gold and Celtic because of the trace minerals that help the body. Please talk about this!!!! By the way the amount of metals in Baja Gold vary a lot per batch and in the yearly tests.
what about pink himalayan sea salt?
that's not sea salt
@ does it have the same issues?
@@bora8617 unrefined sea salt has more minerals while Himalayan salt has less and been exposed to explosives and radioactivity from what i understand
They also add fluoride in some areas. For your health.
Response from Redmonds Salt
Salt per day to reach this level.
While it’s true that trace amounts of some unwanted naturally occurring elements are found in many foods, including Real Salt, we believe in the benefits of consuming natural, unrefined products over highly processed alternatives. These natural products have valuable minerals and are less likely to contain junk additives.
For us, the trade-off between some unwanted trace elements and the simple, clean, and real purity of a natural product is worth it, but we respect everyone's individual choices in their pursuit of health. Your health journey is personal, and we’re here to support you with information to help you make the best decision for you!
Was this article helpful?
I use the Baja Gold because it's from where i am, in the B-a-j-a. Where i also have 5000 gallons of potable water and a silo full of fresh tortillas.
i'll stick to Redmonds. I bet if you test them again you would get very different results.
