Another problem that I have with the health care system is the fixed studies regarding how sodium causes heart disease and high blood pressure. This is not true, because the proper details are not being presented.

Admittedly NaCl – sodium chloride – is a problem with health concerns. What you see in the grocery stores will kill you. The store brands of salt contain pure sodium chloride and a sodium silicoaluminate (possible link to Alzheimer’s disease) to prevent caking. Table salt is also often iodized—a small amount of potassium iodide (in the US ) to prevent some thyroid health problems. Unfortunately, the salt that most people consume in excess is contained in chips and other processed foods – this is sodium chloride without the iodine and the quantity is way beyond what people need.

My problem with heart disease and high blood pressure is that we are eating too much sodium chloride and no trace minerals. When we consume salt with trace minerals in food we prepare, heart disease and high blood pressure will decrease or virtually disappear.









There are three sources (that are well known in the US ) of salt with trace minerals – sea salt, Himalayan Salt, and Redmond’s Real Salt. Sea salt stirs all kinds of warm and fuzzy feelings with its advocates as they defend “their salt,” but the truth is most of sea salt has all the trace minerals removed (trace minerals is a profit center for salt companies as they sell them to other companies). Unless you have inside information, you can’t trust that sea salt contains trace minerals.

The second source is Himalayan Salt. This is a good product with trace minerals, but unless you just want bragging rights you can afford such an imported product, there is no reason to purchase this inflated item.

I highly recommend that you buy Redmond Real Salt. This salt is from deposits occurring in ancient ocean beds in the area of Redmond Utah . This salt was covered up thousands of years ago to prevent pollution. The people at Redmond uncover these deposits and then make several products – Real table salt, salt blocks for animals, and Real Salt with organic onion, garlic, and seasoning. These people guarantee they never remove these trace minerals and their products have not been contaminated with pollution. The company has thousands of testimonials of people switching to their salt and resulting in the absence of high blood pressure problems.

There is not a doubt high blood pressure is caused by a magnesium shortage in our diets – www.prestigepublishing.com “The High Blood Pressure Hoax” by Sherry Rogers, MD. Drug companies don’t want you to know how to “cure” high blood pressure as it would eat into their profits for high blood pressure medications.



The normal drug treatment for high blood pressure is diuretics, first to reduce the fluid volume in the blood (this also depletes the few trace minerals that are in our bodies). In time this stops working and Calcium Channel Blockers are added for another reduction of blood pressure. After 5 years of this treatment your brain will shrink (this is a bad side effect that drug companies don’t want you to know about) and you will dementia/Alzheimer’s effects. This is why high blood pressure is a bad Hoax – meaning bad joke.

Taking magnesium by itself is not a good idea. Many people recommend ‘this or that’ trace mineral without any knowledge of the right form or combination for absorption of trace minerals by our bodies. I have discovered that if you want the right trace minerals to be healthy, there is only one source that is usable by the body and in the right balance. The source has to come from the ocean.

Redmond Real salt is a great product and I recommend it and use it, but it is not complete. This should be used instead of store bought salt or salt in processed foods.

There was a book published in 2006, by Charles Walters and Richard Olree, DC called “Minerals for the Genetic Code.” These men searched medical literature and have traced every disease to the lack of a trace mineral or the combination of the lack of trace minerals to disease.








There are no trace minerals in the food in grocery stores. Everyone will have a disease or degeneration of some kind if you don’t consume trace minerals. Since there is no man alive that knows the right combination of trace minerals, then we have to assume that the maker had a plan when he created the oceans (they cover 70 % of the earth), and consuming trace minerals from an ocean source is the only safe, healthful choice. It is important that trace minerals be ionized, and plant derived in a phyto form. The only one I know of that fits this description is Dr Bob’s Total Ocean Nutrition – Minerals.

The message for today is to use Real Salt and supplement with trace minerals from the ocean and you can avoid or “cure” most diseases. This sounds too simple to be true – but it is a proven fact.
