Ingredients

Salt sourced directly from the foothills of the Himalayas in Parkistan.  Because this product is natural and hand mined, occasionally you'll find bits of mineral grit in the salt.  This is harmless and is either absorbed by the body of eliminated by your digestive system.  No anti caking agents are added, so the salt may absorb moisture, particularly if humid - this is natural and will not affect the product.
