30 Benefits of Salt – The Bible tells us we are the salt of the Earth. So I figured I would share the benefits of salt. #BenefitsofSalt
30 Benefits of Salt
“You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men.” Matthew 5:13.
This verse tells us if we lose our saltiness, it is hard to add it back. (Light has benefits too and we are also called to be a light)
There are many types of salts and some are better for you than others. For example Sea Salt is one of the better salts for you. There is a difference between table salt and sea salt! Other sites also show that Celtic Sea Salt or Pink Himalayan rock salt are better for you too. There is also a point of taking too much salt in too.

In God We Trust Day a day based on that is imprinted on our currency here in the United States. Our Nation was founded under One Nation under God. Anymore it seems God has been removed from everything.

The Red & Black Ant Analogy — Understanding the True Enemy — In the natural world, there’s a fascinating phenomenon involving ants. If you place 100 black ants and 100 red ants in a jar, they coexist peacefully. However, if the jar is shaken, chaos ensues. The ants, now agitated, begin to attack each other, perceiving their fellow jar-mates as the enemy. This behavior provides a poignant metaphor for human society, where often the true adversary is not the one who appears different from us, but rather the one who incites division. - Hiding Mini Jesus Figurines

Hi Steve! I didn’t know salt helps in preventing diabetes. I’ve been a diabetic for more than 5 years now and i’ve been trying everything I can get my hands on to help me control my sugar. Salt is really intriguing. I’ll consult my doctor on how I can integrate it in my diet.
I am not sure how, but when I did a search for benefits of salt (forms of salt) it is what came up on a few places. But of course, you must ask your doctor before trying anything that you read. I think it may be talking about Epson salt, like soaking your feet and things in it.
