Description:-
Black salt or kala namak has been used in Ayurvedic medicines and therapies for centuries. A natural rock salt, it owes its rich dark colour to all the iron and other essential minerals that it contains. The salt takes on a light pink tone when ground into a fine powder.
Aids weight loss
Since black salt contains less sodium as compared to regular table salt, it doesn’t cause water retention and bloating. So it makes for a good alternative to white salt.
Prevents muscle spasms and cramps
Black salt not only contains small amounts of potassium, which is crucial to muscle functioning, but it also helps the body absorb the essential mineral. This makes it very effective in preventing painful muscle spasms and cramps.
Treats acidity
The alkaline properties of black salt help reduce excess acid in the stomach, and its high mineral content lessens the damage caused by acid reflux.
Laxative benefits
Black salt is also known for its laxative benefits, as it improves digestion and also alleviates intestinal gas. It makes an effective home remedy for constipation when combined with lemon juice and ginger.
Promotes healthy hair
The essential minerals in black salt are known to boost hair growth, strengthen weak hair and even prevent split ends. Including black salt in your diet can also help arrest hair fall, reduce dandruff, and promote healthy, lustrous hair.
