Stone salt has 85% sodium chloride and more than 80 minerals. It can balance the body’s pH, eliminate of toxins, regulate water content, and prevent muscle cramps.
Extracted salt has a larger grain size than common table salt. Sea salt may contain potassium, iron, and zinc as well. Rock salt is the best one for cosmetic purposes since it has an abundance of minerals, that is, sodium iodides, carbonates, fluorides, and other chemical compounds.
Sea salt is considered to be one of the most beneficial salts for the hair, that is, it can strengthen the hair follicle and nourish the scalp. It will encourage hair growth, increase the volume, and stimulate the blood circulation in the scalp. It will also cleanse the pores and strengthen the cell membranes thanks to the presence of calcium.
