[QUOTE="OKC9-12LEDR1, post: 2051262, member: 7700"] I beg to differ. You buy sea salt for canning and for meat preservation, you do not want to use salts with iodine when doing either of those. If you look at a box of expensive canning salt, it is nothing but natural sea Salt. Salt will also be a great barter item, especially for those two reasons. I do store regular table salt, but the bulk of my stores is natural Atlantic Sea Salt. Don't buy anything coming out of the Pacific ocean these days, fish or anything. I choose to get my iodine in my herbs and food and hold off on the salt intake. We as a nation have epidemic levels of shortness in certain vitamins and minerals in our diet. Taking synthetic replicators of these work to a certain point, but like with most other drugs, they have harmful side effects or can cause the body so shut down it's natural production and utilization of vitamins and minerals. One of the biggest problems people have to day is a lack of vitamin D. Without proper levels of D, you body cannot utilize many of the other vitamins we are taking. It is all about creating balance in the body. I have worked with a natural doctor for over 20 years who studied Chinese herbal medicines for 28 years, along with very knowledgeable people with both herbs and essential oils.
