This salt has a greenish-gray color, resulting from the salt being roasted and baked at high temperatures. The high temperature causes a chemical reaction that gives the salt its distinct color. ⚫Smell Some of the earliest evidence of salt processing dates to around 6000 BC, when people living in the area of present-day Romania boiled spring water to extract salts; a salt works in China dates to approximately the same period. Salt was also prized by the ancient Hebrews, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Hittites, Egyptians, and Indians. Salt became an important article of trade and was transported by boat across the Mediterranean Sea, along specially built salt roads, and across the Sahara on camel caravans. The scarcity and universal need for salt have led nations to go to war over it and use it to raise tax revenues. Salt is used in religious ceremonies and has other cultural and traditional significance. Although salts in general all have inflammatory properties, Bamboo Salt is found to have a much significant effect on treating inflammations. Therefore, it contributes significantly to the prevention and treatment of inflammatory diseases (Shin, Hye-Young, et. al., 2003).

Before the advent of electrically powered refrigeration, salting was one of the main methods of food preservation. Thus, herring contains 67mg sodium per 100g, while kipper, its preserved form, contains 990mg. Similarly, pork typically contains 63mg while bacon contains 1,480mg, and potatoes contain 7mg but potato crisps 800mg per 100 g. [14] Salt is also used extensively in cooking as a flavoring, and cooking techniques such as with salt crusts and brining. The main sources of salt in the Western diet, apart from direct use of sodium chloride, are bread and cereal products, meat products and milk and dairy products. [14] Kosher or kitchen salt has a larger grain size than table salt and is used in cooking. It can be useful for brining, bread or pretzel making and as a scrubbing agent when combined with oil. [56] Unlike other salts that are acidic, Bamboo Salt is highly alkaline (pH of 10.5) because of the high sulfur content. Therefore, it can act as a neutralizer for acidic food. Also because of this unique property, the iron in Bamboo Salt does not oxidize like the iron in other salts. As we know, the oxidation processes that take place in our body leads to aging. Instead of oxidizing, Bamboo Salt produces reduction reactions. It suppresses inflammations and slows down cell proliferation. In other words, it acts as an anti-aging agent. The unique preparation process of bamboo salt also gives it special physical attributes that set it apart from other forms of salt. ⚫Texture Lopez, Billie Ann. "Hallstatt's White Gold: Salt".

Bamboo salt is highly alkaline with a 10.10 pH (foods greater than 7 are considered alkaline) for grey salt and a 11.5 pH for purple bamboo salt. The salt's high pH neutralizes acidic food and its alkali-forming mineral composition has an alkalizing effect on of the body. A revered salt For cough, bronchitis, gum disease, and sore throat, you can use Bamboo salt in addition with your toothpaste to brush your teeth. The salt will help kill off various bacteria in your mouth that contributes to the problem, and greatly speeds up the recovery.

Bamboo Salts have many beneficial qualities; however, little is known about its side-effects. As a result, a group of researchers performed a three month study to determine the side-effects of Bamboo Salt. After three months of administrating Bamboo Salts to the test group, the results show that there was no significant toxicological findings. There was also no negative effect to the hematological, serum biochemical and histopathological components (Toxicological Research, 2002). It has been found that Bamboo Salts contain small trace of Arsenic (0.05 mg / kg) (Yu, Byung-kyu, et. al., 2011). Therefore, consumption of Bamboo Salt in large amount is not recommended.

Sea salt extracted from the Dead Sea. It has a low content of sodium chloride unlike normal ocean sea salt. The salt is used mainly for bath and beauty regiment purposes. It is documented in scientific research to effectively treat acne and psoriasis because of its high magnesium concentration, a main ingredient for reducing inflammation. As a result, it is also effective in treating arthritis as well as relieving allergic reactions.

For hundreds of years, Koreans have used bamboo salt for cooking and as a form of traditional medicine. It's made by placing sea salt inside of bamboo and roasting it at a high temperature. The goal is to infuse the salt with minerals from the bamboo and to remove any impurities. But the premium compared to other types of salt is steep.

(2019) investigated the efficacy of Bamboo salt combined with sodium fluoride on streptococcus mutans. Various properties attributed to the cariogenesis of this microorganism including its growth, acid production, adherence to glass beads, and expression of gtfB, gtfC, gtfD, and ftf genes were significantly restrained by the Bamboo salt and sodium fluoride mixture. It was concluded that Bamboo salt and sodium fluoride can synergically act in inhibiting the cariogenic potential of Streptococcus mutans [ 21], which is consistent with the results of the present in-vivo study.Bamboo Salt (also known as Jukyeom) originates from Korea. It was originally developed by Korean doctors and monks almost 1,000 years ago as a folk medicinal remedy for various illnesses. The Bamboo Salt is made by putting sea salt into cases made from bamboo trunks with 3 years of growth. The salt pillars are then ground, and re-sealed into new bamboo stalks to be roasted 1 to 9 times. With each firing, the salt's purity, alkalinity, mineral content, therapeutic properties, and sulphur flavor increases. For treating and preventing recurrence of Candida Yeast Infection, a daily intake of 1 gram of Bamboo Salt in three to five doses will boost your immunity against the infection. If you are suffering from yeast infection, you can increase the dose to 3 grams and gradually decrease the dosage as your condition gets better. Aside from ingesting the salt, you can make a douche solution or bath soak with the Bamboo Salt. The Bamboo Salt will greatly suppress the itchiness and stinging symptoms, cleanse the area from the yeast, and creates a barrier for further yeast growth. Even though you eat bamboo salt three or four times more than common salt, you don’t feel thirsty, because the harmful materials in salt were eliminated. Bamboo salt doesn’t affect blood pressure because it doesn’t cause one to retain water.
