Pink is in, or at least it is in the salt world! Himalayan pink salt has been prized for its content of 84 minerals and can be used in numerous ways to benefit the mind and body. Pink salt is believed to be the purest salt on earth because of its location in the Himalayan mountain range in Asia. It’s also thought that the lava protects this salt from pollution and keeps it pink due to its high mineral and iron content.

So using only a few TBSs of salt, you’ll have a gallon’s worth of an awesome electrolyte drink that has over 84 minerals. Holy crap.
I know that Turkish Coffee readings might be
exact when performed by someone that actually knows how you can perform this (she is Iranian, not Turkish incidentally, i.e.
she possibly knows the fine art of some Gypsy’s which are just thinking about constant
and even individual cash flow coming from unlucky believers), yet she is actually
a straight up con-artist.
The “gatorade” came out too salty? I feel like I’m drinking sea water! Perhaps, you used larger salt particles & thus, used less salt than I did. My Himalayan salt looked the size of kosher salt. Any ideas on how to save this gallon?
Phone psychic frauds are actually however occasionally unemployed actors being spent to read through a script.
I’ve been totally obsessed with bath salts lately, but I haven’t tried any with pink sea salt, so I’ll have to give this one a try! Thanks:)
I am definitely going to make a the “Gatorade” recipe:)
