<\/a><\/p>\nSize matters.\u00a0<\/strong>Sodium is a necessary part of everyone\u2019s diet, but it can be easy to consume too much. According to registered\u00a0dietitian, Rene Ficek<\/a>, the size of the pink salt crystals results in a decrease of overall salt consumption. He says, “The more salt you eat, the more fluids you retain, and the harder it is for your heart to process these fluids, which can increase blood pressure.” Since pink salt typically comes in larger crystals, you\u2019re more likely to pour less onto your cooked dishes without sacrificing any of the yumminess. That’s why we love the Salted Pink Himalayan Salt Kit (a Choice item in the FabFitFun Summer Box<\/a>) because you can shave off however much salt you desire.<\/p>\n Less additives.\u00a0<\/strong>Pink salt is said to be more natural and contains fewer additives than regular table salt. While table salt is usually heavily refined<\/a> and mixed with anti-caking agents to prevent clumping, pink Himalayan salt is less processed and usually doesn’t contain any additives. Because pink salt is kept in its natural state, it has more minerals, making it a healthier option<\/a> (some people even put it in their baths!).<\/p>\n Beauty benefits.\u00a0<\/strong>A\u00a0seasoning that also has beauty benefits always gets a gold star in our book. Sea salt is laden with minerals including magnesium, calcium, sodium, and potassium, all of which play a key role in skin’s health<\/a>, function, and cellular communication. Throw it into a homemade scrub or simply garnish your favorite recipes with the mineral-packed crystals to get the most out of this popular seasoning.<\/p>\n And, lucky for you, Salted is offering a free\u00a0three-month\u00a0subscription<\/a>\u00a0— exclusive\u00a0to FabFitFun readers.\u00a0Whether you want to learn how to prepare mussels or learn your favorite chef’s recipe, Salted offers amazing tutorials on all things cooking.<\/p>\n xx, The FabFitFun Team<\/p>\n P.S.
