The benefits of black salt in cooking

Black salt is a raw salt of volcanic origin that, when used in moderation, can result in a number of health benefits.

Among the first benefits of black salt is its mineral composition, which enables the assimilation of important nutrients such as iron, potassium chloride, sodium chloride, and sulfur.

Black salt would also help improve the appearance of both hair and skin, and it would be helpful in the prevention of type 2 diabetes, as research published in Diabetes & Metabolism reportedly showed.

The mineral composition
Among the first benefits of black salt is its mineral composition, which enables the assimilation of important nutrients such as iron, potassium chloride, sodium chloride, and sulfur. Potassium, for example, has several functions, and among them: it participates in muscle contraction, such as that of the heart muscle, helps regulate the balance of fluids and minerals inside and outside cells, and helps keep blood pressure under control. Sulfur, on the other hand, is important for hair growth, is useful for the well-being of the skin, and for giving strength to the body.

Beauty of skin and hair
Regarding the beauty of hair and skin, black salt would be able to contribute to the health of both, improving their appearance. This is due to the fact that black salt would contain the very nutrients that are also often found within supplements recommended for skin and hair. The main rule, however, is still to use it in moderation. In the scientific arena, in fact, there is still much conflicting debate about the use of sodium.

Black salt would help prevent diabetes 2
According to research published in Diabetes & Metabolism, low levels of sodium in the body may be somewhat related to a higher incidence of type 2 diabetes. Therefore, daily sodium requirements should be ensured to help ward off the occurrence of this disease. The moderate use of black salt, in the absence of medical contraindications, might therefore be ideal.

A quality seasoning
Black salt is generally considered a quality seasoning precisely because it would improve the intake of mineral salts, thanks to which it will be possible to help reduce the incidence of many chronic and complex diseases by being able to maintain homeostasis (i.e., the ability of living organisms to preserve their characteristics as external environmental conditions change through self-regulating mechanisms).
