WELLNESS // the salty truth

Salt has a bad reputation, guys. The truth is, salt has some amazing health benefits. Where most salts are fine in moderation, the only salt we use at the shop is pink Himalayan salt. Himalayan Salt gets its name from the location it’s mined from, the Himalayas near Pakistan and the pink hue is all natural.

Sodium is an important factor for the health system. It helps to balance fluids, muscle contraction, and nerve conduction …when used in moderation. Too much of course can promote other negative health conditions. Himalayan salt mined from the Khewra Salt Mine is minimally processed with no additives and is known to be a more natural and organic option for salt. Himalayan salt also has traces much higher than typical table salt of Potassium, Magnesium, and Iron - all great benefits to the processes of the body.

Our mission at Java Mama is to use the best ingredients …not just for the enjoyment of the dish, but also for the digestive benefits your body will experience from those ingredients. If you want to make an easy, healthy switch in your pantry, swap your table salt for pink Himalayan salt!

PS: Himalayan salt has a stronger taste than table salt, so a little goes a long way.
