Alkaline Nutrition - 7 Reasons You Should Increase Your Salt Intake For Better Health - Part 1

0 comments

Salt has long been seen by the traditional medical community as the culprit for diseases such as high blood pressure. But "Salt" is not the enemy. The enemy is the type of salt used, which have high blood pressure pressure.

The heating and processing of salt is the real reason why salt gets so bad rap. Unfortunately, these heated and processed salts are the salts that most people have in their salt shaker at home, as well as the same salt in most processed foods.

This heated and processed salt is "denatured", which means that the chemical composition was changed by the high heat and processing. Because the molecular structure of the salt is changed, your body can not digest the salt properly. If this happens, the salt is a toxin to your body, and this is the reason why the salt has rap.

However bad, "natural" salts are not only indispensable, they are good for you. Without salt, dies ... It's that simple. Here are 7 reasons you should increase your intake of salt good to be healthier (and leaner) .

1) Good Salt Can they reach your ideal weight - acids are the true cause of obesity, not calories . Your body will bind with fatty acids and store it in your fat storage areas (hips, Butt, love handles) just to keep you alive. Salts to help neutralize these deadly acids.

By good food salts to neutralize acids your body needs to keep the fat content has fallen. If your body is no longer relying on fat acid to neutralize, then the excess fat in your body begins to melt away.

2) Your Body runs on salt, not calories - It is a big misunderstanding that "burning calories" is the key to weight loss and staying slim. The reality is that "calories" are a measurement of heat. Your body does not run on heat, where it runs on ions. And you get these ions from salt.

3) "Cravings" feelings are really hungry for salt - If most people feel little energy, it is usually crave something with sugar. But this is really your body craving salt. The next time you have cravings and low on energy, try a healthy snack with salts. One of my favorite snacks is to add natural sea salt to over avocado. This satisfied my desire for salt and fat.
