BIO-LUX HIMALAYA ROCK SALT

Description

Himalayan salt is a table salt. Analysis of a range of Khewra salt samples showed them to be between 96% and 99% sodium chloride, with varying amounts of trace minerals such as calcium, iron, zinc, chromium, magnesium, and sulfate, all at safe levels below 1%.^{[1][8][9][10]} Some salts mined in Pakistan are not suitable for food or industrial use without purification due to impurities.^[1] Some salt crystals from this region have an off-white to transparent color, while the trace minerals in some veins of salt give it a pink, reddish, or beet-red color.^[11][12]

Nutritionally, Himalayan salt is also similar to common table salt,^[10][13] though it lacks the beneficial iodine that is added to commercial iodised table salt.^[14][15] Iodized table salt has significantly reduced disorders of iodine deficiency in countries where it is used.^[1
