A man who is tension free, may be considered a happy one. In everyday life tension haunts us like a nightmare. A student has home-work tension, an employee has lay off tension, a youth has career related tension & parents have marriage related tension of their adult daughter etc.
More attachment or thinking over any future or present matter causes our brain burning. It causes tension & when it is in serious mode then it is called hypertension. This disease may be considered a passport to death. As per the record of WHO(World Health Organization) the number of hypertension related patients is more than 1 billion worldwide.
A man who has hypertension is always get irritated on a trivial matter, becomes furious very often & lacks patience. He neither becomes happy nor can make his family members happy. In short hypertension courts unhappiness.
Reading up to this portion, the reader may be confused about the title of the piece. Friends be calm, many more things are waiting.
Salt is one of the basic ingredients of our cooking. Do you know this common thing has an uncommon impact on our mental health? We all consume it to enhance the taste of foods. The salt which is mostly used is table salt or refined salt. It is collected from salt mines or sea shore. Then this unclean salt has to go through step by step purification process; of course, the process is done with chemicals. Next iodine is added. Now a milk-white 'refined' salt is ready to consume.
This type of refined salt contains a high volume of sodium; regular consumption of which may result hypertension & may other health hazards to the consumers. In Indian food habit salt is added to the food at the time of cooking. There is no need to sprinkle salt on food at the dinner table. But it is the food habit of Western countries where they prefer to sprinkle salt over their food while eating. So fine quality salt has no use in context of Indian or Eastern countries. So, why the use of refined salt is increasing day by day in India? All credit goes to the TV advertisement.😃
Now if we stop using this useless salt, then what next?
The next & final one is Himalayan rock salt. As its color is pinkish, so it is called pink salt also. This rock salt is the finest salt in the world. It is collected by hands. Hardly any impurity is present in this type of salt. So it needs no process of purification. Apart from potassium & calcium rock salt contains 84 types of trace minerals like - Zn, Cu, Mn, Se, F, B, Cr, I, Mo & Co etc. These minerals have a good impact on our health; they are the treasures for a healthy body.
Rock salt controls blood pressures & thus reduces hypertension; it is rich with antioxidant & hematogenic properties; maintains pH balance of our body, boosts metabolism & digestion ; has positive effect on depression.
So friends, intake this salt & fill up your body-vault. 😊
