Ever thought that sea salt can do your body good? Well, yes it can! The Hawaiian black sea salt can be one mineral that has more benefits than you could ever imagine!

Without salt, it is not possible to make foods tasty, and the human body needs an amount of sodium which can be obtained from salt. However, OTC salt or regular table salt is not much beneficial from a health perspective. To obtain the natural goodness of salt, you should opt for sea salts. Hawaiian Black sea salt, in particular, is ideal for those seeking a blend of taste and health benefits. Its activated charcoal lends the salt a black hue and amazing taste. The salt is used mostly with desserts, seafood and you can also use it for cooking. It is beneficial for human health.

Major health benefits of Hawaiian Black sea salt are listed below:

1. Devoid Of Contaminants:

Hawaiian sea salt, including the black variant, is made in salt ponds located on the islands of Kauai and Molokai. It is made with solar evaporation technology, resulting in the formation of natural salt crystals. As a matter of fact, the Hawaiian Island archipelago remains largely unaffected by marine contaminants and pollution. The lifestyle is quite slow-paced and rural. With literally no industry thriving in the region, chemical and toxic substances do not get deposited in the sea water. The salt is derived from this fresh and unpolluted water. This is why it tastes much better than regular salt.

2. Retains The Minerals:

The Hawaiian Black sea salt is harvested in a way that results in the retention of electrolytes and valuable trace minerals (1). These minerals are quite beneficial for the human body. The salt is dried using sophisticated solar evaporators. The process results in slow evaporation, leaving naturally formed salt crystals intact. Finally, the salt contains 84% sodium chloride along with 16 naturally derived minerals. On the contrary, these minerals are largely destroyed in regular salt during the processing.

3. Source Of Magnesium And Potassium:

The human body requires a supply of some key minerals. Two such key minerals are magnesium and potassium. Potassium is vital for the proper functioning of the heart, muscles and the nerves (2). When you use foods cooked in salt or use salts in food additionally, your body actually requires more potassium and magnesium. The Hawaiian Black sea salt is fortified with these minerals. These are not found in standard table salt. So, when you use the sea salt in foods, electrolyte levels in your body remain well balanced.

4. Detoxifying Agent:

The Hawaiian Black sea salt is made using activated charcoal derived from coconut shells. Apart from lending the salt its flavour, this also works as a detoxifying agent. While the amount of activated charcoal present in this salt is not high, you can still obtain the benefits. It does help your body in the long run. The activated charcoal obtained from coconut shells is also said to be a digesting aid.

5. Can Be Used In Small Amounts:

One big advantage of Hawaiian Black sea salt over table salt is that it has a strong flavour. As a result, you need not use it in making dishes in ample amounts. On the contrary, you can make foods tasty by using less amount of the sea salt compared to regular OTC salt. So, you can use less amount of salt and avoid health problems like water retention and elevated blood pressure. These are caused by taking in an excess amount of salt.

Besides, the charcoal present in Hawaiian black sea salt gives it a unique earthy undertone (3). This adds to the cooking flexibility in a way. Usually, other sea salts are added just before the dish is completed, so that the salt does not lose its intensity. However, this is not the case with the Hawaiian variant. It can be added when you start cooking a dish.
