It is also known as the "white gold" or "salt of life". This is not surprising, since the word salt comes from sun (sol). Himalayan crystal salt has stored sunlight. Together with pure spring water it offers the foundation for life to begin, to be maintained and sustained. </font> <p align="justify"><font face="Verdana" size="2">It had millions of years to mature under great tectonic pressure, far from exposure to impurities. Primal energy from millions of years ago is stored in crystal salt's unique structure. All its inherent minerals and trace elements are available in colloidal form. This guarantees that the body is able to absorb necessary potassium, calcium, magnesium and trace elements.</font></p> <p align="justify"><font face="Verdana" size="2">Crystal salt from the Himalayan, together with pure water, is the most inexpensive and effective preventive health measure we can take. Plinius, a Roman writer (23-79 AD) already declared: <i>Crystal salt is the most important remedy for mankind.</i></font></p> <p align="justify"><font face="Verdana" size="2">Our common cooking salt is devoid of the vital elements that make crystal salt from the Himalayas so precious. Common cooking salt is basically an industrial waste product with only two of the original 84 elements remaining (sodium and chlorine) that is detrimental to our health. Sea salt is a much preferred alternative to refined processed salt. However, natural salt harvested at the shore is only fully viable as long as it is not industrially processed and is not supplemented with additives to make it pour more easily. Sea pollution, with its many different harmful toxins, causes negative biophysical frequency to affect the finished product.</font></p> <h1><font face="Verdana" color="#FF7F55">Production</font></h1> <p align="justify"><font face="Verdana" size="2">Asia Import, our supplier, harvests its crystal salt from the deepest and purest level of a salt mine in the Himalayas. The purest, nearly transparent crystals, which look like uncut diamonds, come from a thin bottom layer of the mine, the location of which is a highly guarded secret. Salt rocks of 30 to 50 kg are manually cut out in the mine and tracked from this point on by an internationally accredited independent company.</font></p> <p align="justify"><font face="Verdana" size="2">Transported to the production facility in Delhi, they are once again tested both by the above-mentioned company and our chemical engineer. They are cleaned, sun dried and finally sorted by color. The darker stones are processed into bathing salt. The purest stones are cut by hand into pieces of between 20 and 60 grams each, washed in brine and sun dried.</font></p> <div align="center"> <center> <table border="0" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="3"> <tr> <td width="50%"><img src="images/1_raw.jpg" width="257" height="161"><br> <font face="Verdana" size="2">Rocks directly from the mine</font></td> <td width="50%"> <img src="images/2_sort.jpg" width="260" height="160"><br> <font face="Verdana" size="2">Cutting of the pieces</font></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="50%"> <img src="images/3_wash.jpg" width="258" height="161"><br> <font face="Verdana" size="2">Washing in brine solution</font></td> <td width="50%"> <img src="images/4_dry.jpg" width="260" height="160"><br> <font face="Verdana" size="2">Drying in the sun</font></td> </tr> </table> </center> </div> <p align="justify"><font face="Verdana" size="2">While the bath salt production is done in India by our Indian employees - none of whom are children - the pure salt is shipped to Germany, where it is again tested by an accredited laboratory that authorizes the well-deserved seal of excellence used on all of our products. Further processing takes place in the Bavarian countryside town of Raising, Germany, the headquarters of Asia Import. Here, mill salt and cooking salt are produced by local down-to-earth people whose commitment to Asia Import knows no office hours. Their ingenuity, devotion and care is helping our company evolve in a very organic way.</font></p> <p align="center"><a href="http://www.life-enthusiast.com"> <img border="0" src="../images/lec_home_page.gif" width="246" height="22"></a></p> </body>
