Salt....

Story of Salt - read in full to understand how we have messed up the use of common salt 

Humans  has been using sea salt for generations and thousands of years since he discovered that he tastes good

There were no BPs in those days,

No bone pains in the wont

Thyroid is not a problem...

Do you remember..?

These big salt bags are just like that in front of the grocery shops in the villages.

Because no one will steal salt

There was also a rule not to deny if anyone asks for salt for free

Gone are those days...

Everything is thin salt,

That's the iodized salt that's quickly added to our kitchens...

It's thinner than big salt, so everyone is not sticking

This is what he has been prefered...

But this has started to harm people's health...

We don't care for years

That's how it started..?

In the area of 1986...

Corporates have appealed to the government...

Since people in northeast states are suffering from iodine deficiency,

They said they will become healthier if they get used to iodine salt...

No studies, no precautions first, then corporates right...

The government has said that it is ok...

Government banned the sea salt by saying that iodised salt  should used

If there is iodine deficiency in northeast states, what about the rest of the country

What is the use of this arrest salty

There is no one who asked that...

Why should the whole country use the prefection to tell the patient

There is no one who asked that

So corporate lobbying will be the same...

Corporates started selling this salt through a large amount of chemical process and 4 times more expensive

Next up

Many companies have stepped into this business...

People's opinion is so strong that sea salt is dangerous, iodize salt is only healthy...

Slowly people understood the side effects of this...

Salt is to taste and not a menu ingredient 

Use of iodised salt have increased the BPs... 

They have increased the problems like thyroid and obesity...

And  have increased the heart disease...

Diagnose laboratories are happy, pharmaceutical companies are happy, doctors are happy...

Ayurveda doctors, homeo doctors have suggested normal sea Salt...

But the price of sea salt has high and scare - you don’t get fresh sea salt anymore.

Actually there is no deficiency of iodine in many parts of the country...

But we started pumping extra iodine into our bodies in the name of this iodized salt...

It seems we have bought the sickness by ourselves

A bill was filed on this in the Karnataka High Court last year.

Then what should the people do..?

It is better to reduce that processed salt and turn towards natural sea salt much as possible...

It is available very well in the market now...

People don't even believe in this country they are not eating the correct salt.
