GENERAL PRODUCT INTRODUCTION: Sensatia Botanicals Unrefined Organic Sea Salt is pure sea salt from Bali's pristine, still-rugged east coast. Along these quiet white sand beaches the sun drenched sea water is channeled through the myriad of sea grasses into canal systems (made of tree trunks) for evaporation. The sun and wind evaporate the ocean water, leaving the mineral rich brine. This live mixture is briskly stimulated by the salt farmer until the salt crystals form. The sea salt is then gathered by hand with wooden tools and sun-dried a final time. This natural, ancient harvesting method preserves the minerals and vitality of this organic treasure.

From the periodic table of elements we are familiar with 94 natural elements. Pure, unrefined organic sea salt contains 84 of these elements, excluding only 10 inert gases from the list. These elements are identical to those of which our bodies are built. Interestingly enough, our blood is sole', made up of the same salty solution originally found in the "primal ocean" from where all life originated. This is why we are drawn to the sea. Our subconscious mind instinctively wants to return to the ocean from which we once emerged. Likewise, a mother's amniotic fluid in which a human embryo grows over 3 billion times in weight is also chemically very similar to this "primal ocean."

Unfortunately, it has been in the name of profit we have all suffered. About 250 years ago with the advent of industrialization, common "table salt" was invented. Common table salt is basically an industrial waste product containing only 2 of the original 84 elements (the other 82 elements are sold off for huge profit.) What remains is just sodium and chlorine and is detrimental to our health. In fact it is not even fair to call it "salt"; common table salt is in fact granulated sodium chloride with perhaps the only benefit being that it tastes "salty." All salt water aquarium owners know that you could never create a life sustaining environment for your tropical fish using common table salt. It would be like replacing our blood with water, or planting your prize winning daisies in sand, the end result is death.

On the other hand, using real, natural, unprocessed organic evaporated seawater can increase health. Sea salt is an important additive to cooking that stimulates salivation and helps to replenish all of the body's electrolytes. It supplies more than 80 vital trace minerals to promote healthy biological function and cellular maintenance.

Bathing in a sea salt bath is recommended for skin diseases, rheumatism, joint diseases, after operations, gynecological problems, and for children prone to infection to strengthen the immune system and detoxify the body. The bath should be close to body temperature and should be 20-30 minutes long. During this time the body reaches the same salt concentration (inside and outside) as that of a pre-natal state. Minerals penetrate the skin in the form of ions stimulating natural cell growth. Bio-energetic weak points will be balanced and the body's own energy flow will be re-activated. The detoxifying effect after a sea salt bath can be compared to a 3 day fast.

Further observations show that the best sea salt bath results have been at the changes of the moon. At full moon one can expect optimal assimilation and conversely at new moon one can expect optimal detoxification.
