I have also believed in it, but thinking we may have been duped. Been discovering that Himilayan may contain highest levels of floride. They sre poisining us with floride. I now use my naturally grown herbs for seasoning instead of any salt

Hmm. Well I don't believe that to be true whatsoever. Your source is from an article 18 years ago and I trust all of the holistic doctors who recommend it. It works and though others may try to steer others away from something good, based on old info that and I am not finding any other sources beyond yours that say that. Pink salt works and has a wide range of health benefits.
Just litto o me tryin to make a difference. I love all God’s amazing critters. Nature is my playground.
another source more recent. there are many many others. still a personal choice
