Did you know that all sea salt have toxic microplastics in it? It’s one of the sad truths in our polluted world. It’s not much but you will be eating salt in almost every meal for the rest of your life so you might as well care about it.

A healthier alternative to sea salt is mined salt.

      Yeah that’s a pretty wild claim. I would also like to read more into this.

    Something on a similar thread: all metals produced after the 1940s have trace amounts of radioactive isotopes in their composition. If an application requires non-radioactive metals, they must be resourced from undersea wrecks or other places containing pre-nuclear materials. There’s an ever-growing list of things we can’t see but are permanently affecting the environment… and us.

    Sea salt or no your eating and breathing micro plastics all day every day, the small amount of salt you eat is not going to be a major contributing factor to the levels of micro plastics you ingest.
