Naturally occuring salt vs chemcially processed Pickling Lime Re: what about sea salt?

I realize I stated I wouldn't be posting further, but I just can't can't seem to help myself! lol

I honestly do not know the answer to your question, but it is certainly a valid question.

My thinking (which is definitely not researched or given as 'fact' for anyone to believe) is this:

-- The water in the ancient sea beds acquired all the minerals it did from basically three sources (?): the gradually erosion and breaking down of the soil; the plants that died; the animals that died.

-- The minerals it received from the plants & animals would be organic in nature and therefore easily assimilated by the human body.

-- The minerals it received from the erosion of the earth, would be considered 'inorganic' technically (in the sense that ground up rock of any kind is considered inorganic), but possibly after millions of years they would become small enough particles for the human body to assimilate more easily...hence it would become like an 'ionic' size - and thus more suited to human consumption. (?)

It is very possible that we can receive all the salt we need from living plants, and we don't need salt at all in the form we are used to receiving it. Up until this week, I have not had the desire to research that. We do need salt, for sure...and it is healing benefits are infinite

Calcium hydroxide on the other, is not a natural 'mineral' in any way shape or form; it is a ground up rock processed by the use of extreme heat and chemicals. So it cannot be compared and contrasted to naturally occuring salt-beds logically.

I do not have enough knowledge to differentiate the levels/types of toxins that are present in Calcium Hydroxide as being from the ground up rocks or the chemical processing. But I do have the knowledge to choose and advise others that ingesting ground up rocks, the toxins from ground up rocks AND toxins from chemical processing are something one should try to avoid....ESPECIALLY when the healing benefits and reason for ingesting the substance in question, can definitely be found by ingesting the safest food (plants) that we can obtain on earth. (which of course, still contain the toxins from the environment and the naturally occuring organic toxins they produce...but hey, it's the best we can do, eh?)

The FDA, EPA (via FCC guidelines) do not publish warnings on naturally occuring salt, but they do for Calcium Hydroxide. That in itself is quite enough logic for folks that aren't interested in researching 'the details'.
