It helps us stay hydrated.

And salt is actually also used in textiles, paint, plastic, paper.

So it's a binding agent and they needed to use it.

They do...

use it in huge, vast volumes.

They need it to pour freely without it clumping.

And so they put various different anti-caking and free-flow chemicals in, some of which the body doesn't recognize and it's a chemical that's countering the fact that salt is hydroscopic.

And dextrose is also added in because those anti-caking and free flow chemicals have a bitter taste.

And so they then add sugar to counter that.

Sugar into salt.

Dextrose.

So if you have a look on some of the table salt packaging, you will find dextrose on it.

So table salt in a way is fake salt.

It looks like salt and it tastes like salt.

And

you know, definitely adds flavor to your food, but the body doesn't recognize it as a whole food.

It doesn't come with its minerals and its trace elements.

In fact, sometimes they call those impurities.

But I mean, that's how salt, that's how nature produces salt, is with that combination.

And there's an alchemical process that happens with the body.
