Which salt is better - Kłodawska or Himalayan?
Both types of salt are definitely a better choice than chemically purified table salt, to which anti-caking agents are often added. Himalayan salt is currently considered the most valuable and natural. It is a pink rock salt mined in Pakistan from the remains of the seabed. Our Himalayan salt is free of impurities. It is a pure mineral without unnecessary additives and anti-caking agents. Chemically, Himalayan salt is similar to ordinary table salt, but it has a much lower sodium content. This salt also has more minerals that you will not find in ordinary table salt.
Our native Kłodawska salt is mined using traditional methods in the largest and deepest salt mine in Poland - Kłodawa. It is pure rock salt, not refined and does not contain anti-caking agents. It has a similar sodium content to Himalayan salt, but may have a better proportion of minerals. Which salt to choose, Himalayan or Kłodawska, depends only on your individual preferences. The trace mineral content of each salt has no significant impact on your health. However, it is worth appreciating the purity of both types of salt and the lower sodium content compared to ordinary table salt.
