If there is no blood pressure, the delivery of nutrients and the excretion of waste products from our body would be impossible. Temporary blood pressure increase due to eating salt and food is a sort of energy used to transport nutrients. After the salt finishes playing its role, the blood pressure returns to normal. Without the action of mineral rich salt, we cannot digest food and we lose the means to transport nutrients into the cells. In addition, if mineral deficiency occurs due to low salinity diet, we cannot produce many enzymes, and the ability to detoxify and the immunity in our body will be weakened. Salt with abundant minerals, rather, facilitates the excretion of surplus sodium in the blood, as well as cleans the blood. As a result, it improves the blood flow in our bodies and helps the treatment of hypertension. Eating sodium chloride means there are no minerals that perform the supplementary and the antagonistic actions, that controls the sodium in our bodily fluids. This can disrupt the metabolism of our body and, as a result, it may collapse the balance of our health. The idea that ‘salt causes high blood pressure,’ inferred by experiments without distinguishing the types of salt, is a modern superstition generated by experimental errors. 9 9 Bamboo is incinerated into ashes, and salt pillars remain.
