5min video of my weight and wellness story shared w/ Chantel Ray of Waist Away:    • Listener Special - Lori's Fasting Story!  

Salt is HEALTHY!!!
This 6min. YouTube video comes from a news report segment, Food As Medicine; it features natural salts and why they are good for health:
   • The Healing Powers of Salt!  

Mineral salts:
provide trace minerals, including magnesium and potassium…[important] to electrolyte [balance]
carry nutrients into and out of cells
alkalizes the body
combats elevated blood sugar
relieves muscle cramps through electrolyte balance
essential component in blood plasma and lymphatic fluid
maintains and regulate blood pressure
helps brain communicate with muscles through electrolytes improved nerve impulses
allows fluids to flow in and out of cells, letting cell walls become permeable. When cells are permeable, the body naturally releases what it doesn’t need

Avoiding healthy salt (which is mineral salt…NOT heat-treated chemically cleaned white table salt) can lead to insulin resistance:
