Since discovering sole, I start my day with a teaspoon of this powerfully detoxing and rejuvenating elixir. Because it requires only himalayan salt (or Real Salt), water, and a jar, this health treatment is accessible and affordable for everyone.




The benefits of himalayan salt sole include:


Detoxifies the body by balancing systemic pH

Improves hydration by providing trace minerals

Improves mineral status of the body

Reduces muscle cramps by improving minerals and hydration

Helps balance blood sugar

Supports hormone balance for everyone, no matter what hormonal issues you face

Helps balance blood pressure because it provides unrefined, mineral-rich salt in an ionic solution

Improves sleep by supporting blood sugar and hormone balance

Acts as a powerful antihistamine

Supports weight loss by balancing hormones and improving energy

Supports thyroid and adrenal function (Source and read more benefits!)

There's not. They're abusing "mineral-rich." There's trace elements of some minerals in Himalayan salt, that you can get in much larger quantities from other foods rather than drinking a glass of what is only salt water, all things considered.

All of the health claims they're making here are complete crap. They provide no evidence for their claims, and the one source they provided links back to a shopping page for the salt. Good job falling for a new-agey capitalist scheme.

It's not a matter of 'belief' -- again there *are* minerals, and the presence of the salt creates an ionized solution which is beneficial to the body.

Instead, every time you post one of these threads you dismiss any criticism as some widespread conspiracy this site has towards you, or worse that we're all so blinded by the medical establishment that we instinctively dismiss "Proletarian Medicine" completely out of hand without any investigation. You are either A.) Trolling or B.) in possession of a deep persecution complex that requires you to be publicly harassed over something once a month or so.

Regardless of which one is really true, it has to be obvious at this point that you are literally the only one here that is interested in this stuff. Keep it to yourself, it's embarrassing to think how this might reflect on the rest of the community to new users or people who lurk.

I never cooked with a salt block so I cannot say, but in regards to sushi, it does nothing that normal salt wouldn't do. All the pink color does is just makes the sushi look really pretty. In other words, this is just a garnishing salt whereas table salt is infused with the dish while it is cooking.
However, my chef said that there is indeed a difference which is that Himalayan salt has a floral taste but it is too subtle for me to notice.

Well, it *does* help to actually familiarize oneself, as through personal experience for matters of health, with the subject matter at hand.

"...it requires only himalayan salt (or Real Salt)"

What is "real salt"? Salt is fucking salt.


Detoxifies the body by balancing systemic pH

The body balances its pH automatically through the regulation of breathing with the lungs and filtering excess hydrogen ions out of the bloodstream into the urine produced by the kidneys. It doesn't need some mystical "Himalayan" salt to do that.




Improves hydration by providing trace minerals

Improves mineral status of the body

Reduces muscle cramps by improving minerals and hydration

What few credible chemical analyses of this pink salt that have been done show that its about 95-98% sodium chloride (AKA actual salt) and 2-5% polyhalite impurities (AKA the "trace minerals). These minerals are in such a minute amount that they have practically no effect on the chemical composition of the body. Here's how to improve your hydration: drink water. The end.




Helps balance blood sugar

Improves sleep by supporting blood sugar and hormone balance

That's what the liver and the pancreas are for. Once again showing an astounding ignorance of basic human anatomy. It's all automatic: the body doesn't need highly priced salt from Pakistan to do one of its basic fucking functions and do it well.

As for all the other bullshit claims made on their site, I haven't the time to thoroughly debunk. Anyone with the slightest shred of logic should be able to see through the scam. Ultimately it all comes down to this: there is absolutely NO evidence published in peer-reviewed journals that replacing white salt with pink salt makes a shred of difference or leads to any improvement in health.

OP, please stop posting this horseshit.

I don't see what all the controversy is. Sole will provide essential nutrients and do everything they claim. Of course anything that contains the same ingredients will too.:lol:

The problem I have is that not everyone can afford that overpriced brand, which in all likelihood is salt from a mine. The price comes from them actually bothering to do needless tests for very trace elements that are ubiquitous at that level. I'd go so far as to say plain old table salt would contain similar nutrients if vigorously tested. They then can claim it's mysteriously different from other brands, except other ones who also bothered to test theirs too. To top that off, list what's are proven health benefits of salt(which not everyone can afford ie. the third-world) and trace nutrients.

Which brings me to another thing that pisses me off. They list all those health benefits, that sodium chloride and all other nutrients actually have, as well as their properties, and describe it in a bunch of jargon that in the court of law could be true, but no one in any one field in any one era uses in the real world. This makes it look like they've discovered something that the experts missed, and not that they're making up their own language by playing nomenclature Mad Libs. This hooks in people who are sick and desperate. It will do everything they claim, but not anything a good diet and nutrition. But with the flowery claims, which in the US can only be said to promote heath and not treat/cure, someone dying of something like cancer will buy this shit and a bunch of other shit like it out of desperation. It might not be that much, they're dying anyway, but it's less money left for their families. Even worse they might turn down proven treatments and cures for something that looks like panacea without side effects. There condition gets worse, either for neglecting real treatment or even because of side effects from the snake oil(heart problems from high sodium).

Now that I think about, this is capitalism to the max. What right-"libertarians" get wet dreams about. And "legitimate" capitalists have similar scams(big pharma, tobacco, auto, ect.). In fact this is capitalism summed up in one product.

Fuck this bourgeois sham medicine! Fuck this screwing everyone over for profit! Re-educated these assholes or line the motherfuckers against the wall when the revolution happens. Don't use this bullshit! Replace coffee with Andean salt and support revolutionaries! Increases energy, clears sinuses and greatly increases the risk of getting laid.(side effects included being an asshole, reduced bank account and loss of personal property)

I just thought of something. This "Sole"(aka Brine, Hypertonic/saturated sodium chloride/electrolyte solution) is actually healthier than soft/sport drinks like Gatorade and Coca-Cola. They make similar claims(that it's refreshing, gives electrolytes, aids athletic performance, increases energy, helps recovery from sickness, ect.) but are full of shit that's bad for you. Saline solution is used to hydrate sick people who can't keep food down or are dehydrated. The sugar and caffeine in all those other drinks negates it's hydration and electrolytes. In fact it's better to just take salt, for it prevents dehydration by retaining water, and sugar and caffeine dehydrates you.

Sugar adds calories and increases the risk of shit like diabetes, heart problems, and obesity. The electrolytes aren't usually balanced. Caffeine is addictive, raises heart rate, constricts blood flow, increases anxiety, and increases dehydration. The acids erodes the teeth and bones. Benzene is produced from the plastic and ingredients. Bromides are added as "flavor enhancers".

The container has BPH, which has an estrogen effect, disrupts the endocrine system and can harm fetuses. The plastic and metal is wasteful and ruins the environment. Precious limited resources like fossil fuel are thrown away. Coca is only still grown because it's used in soft drinks(okay that's not that bad;)). The big companies exploit the workers and peasants(ie Coca-Cola hiring rightist militias to murder union members).

All the popular soft drinks and sports drinks do these terrible things. Yet they have the money for slick marketing campaigns. They do far more damage, and exploit far more people, young and old(both the consumer and the real producers, the proletariat). Yet if the OP started talking about soft drinks or sports drinks, this wouldn't get the same response. Why is that?:confused:

Me personally, I avoid sugary drinks. Pointless and bad for you. Only after the yeast gets to it, then I drink.:)

For anyone here who still has a shred of credulity remaining *and* takes their own experiential evidence seriously, here's a tip if spring water (as recommended for the sole thing) isn't readily available for you:

Put some water into a glass and stir it quickly so that there's a standing vortex in the water, for about a minute. Alternatively you can use a blender to do the same thing.

Compare it to an identical glass with some of the same source water, unstirred.

The vortexed (restructured) water will be 'sparklier' in bright light, indicating some kind of physical change. Also note the texture of each glass of water when drinking -- the vortexed water is smoother and thinner.

The theory behind this is that water is a *liquid crystal* and is better for the body in 'restructured' form, as from vortexing, and also from being saturated with salt.

The vortexed (restructured) water will be 'sparklier' in bright light, indicating some kind of physical change. Also note the texture of each glass of water when drinking -- the vortexed water is smoother and thinner.The vortex aerates the water. This dissolves oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and any other gas in the air. Aeration is necessary for things like brewing or hydroponics. Both already proven;).

The dissolved/suspended gases alter the viscosity, density and surface tension of the water. This alters visible of the water, changing it's color slightly. It's know as the Tyndall effect (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyndall_effect)

The dissolved gases interacted with the water and form hydrated shells (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvation_shell). Some gases such as carbon dioxide, chemically combined to make carbonic acid (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonic_acid), increasing the amount of proton ions(H+) and protonated water(Hydronium (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydronium),H3O+) relative to unprotonated(H2O) or deprotonated water(hydroxide (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxide),OH-). It self-ionizes. Normally both charged forms are equalmolar, but bases and acids alter this. The water will even dissolve traces amounts of the glass, forming silicic acid. The carbonic acid and silicic acid can interact with other trace ions, such as magnesium or calcium, and precipitating or dissolving them. The tonicity and conductivity change.

When the atmospheric gases dissolve and saturated beyond their solubility, this can causes a suspension of gaseous colloids between the polar water and non-polar air. The emulsions are commonly called "bubbles". The oxygen of the water sticks to the interfaces of the air bubble.

Water isn't one homogenous liquid. Hydronium forms several hydrates. Neutral water forms several polymers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cluster

All these things are going on at once in water. It's strange to think of all the contradictions that water has. There's really no compound like it. It's everywhere, everyone's familiar with it. Yet there's still much that's unknown. Perhaps this is why all known life needs it?
The theory behind this is that water is a *liquid crystal* and is better for the body in 'restructured' form, as from vortexing, and also from being saturated with salt.The tonicity does alter how good water is for you. Too high, your body can't handle it(drink seawater). Too low, you can get an electrolyte imbalance, fucking up you heart rhythm and causing water delirium. On a celluar level salt can dehydrate cells, as well as your whole body in large amounts(why I think that woman's an idiot). Without any salt, the cells expand, including the brain cells. They could rupture. The cells of one's body require a balance.

A lot of these things seem amazingly spurious to me, and generally, they do come from that same new-agey centre of 1000s of monkeys with crystal skulls typing onto hemp paper using ink extracted from dessicated roadkill that you get on facebook after liking something that sounds vaguely radical because you are bored. Will shoving dildos in your ears improve your sexuality on hearing whale song? The man doesn't want you to cut your toenails! Stirring cats hair into your tea will let you see into the future - as a cat!

Conversely i've known people who have lived to quite a ripe age who did adhere to the folksy 'eat this root, chew this bean' alternative medicine thing, but they didn't drink a shitload or smoke, they just prepared their own meals and lived reasonably sensible lives. Perhaps if you are into this sort of stuff, you will be more wary of what you are consuming and what you are doing to your body, but it doesn't make these possible health benefits true, it just means they aren't doing you any harm. Any adult can make their own choice and choose whatever they think is wise, but personally, I think it's a load of old rope and doubt it would seriously impede whatever health complications arise from the stresses and pressures of my existence.

I'm finding that 'health' can be just like any other area -- like revolutionary politics -- where there's a certain amount of commitment required from the participant, otherwise one is just an observer casually looking in from the outside with little to distinguish fact from hype.

One thing I've noted is that it's curious that the body doesn't have an immediate 'health-feedback' sense, the way the sense of hunger unignorably relates to the need for food -- people can get fairly un-healthy without any immediate internal sense of slipping away from healthiness. Fortunately anything that *does* help the body *is* apparent, so I have much to say for using individual experiential evidence, or experience.

I'm unsure how to comment on the unrefined-('fancy')-sea-salt-versus-table-salt issue, but if one is willing to forego the minerals of the sea salt, then I suppose it would be worth trying out the less-costly option, if only experimentally.

Sea salts supposed benefits over regular table salt are only subjectively in taste,texture and aesthetics. Iodized table salt is fine, and better because of the very essential nutrient iodine. Even better with fluoridated salt. It is part of our conspiracy to destroy freedom, along with vaccines, vulgar music and dance, and marihuana.:p

While salt is often labeled by nutritionists as unhealthy and even dangerous for the body, it is refined (a.k.a. table) salt which has earned this acclaimed title. Refined salt not only does not provide us with the many minerals we need, it actually leaches minerals from the body! In other words, it is more than unhealthy; it is toxic to the body. On the other hand, unrefined sea salt is a necessary food, the balanced consumption of which has many positive effects on the body. The following article by Dr. Brownstein does a very good job of presenting the facts about refined and unrefined salt. Enjoy…

Considering the amount of salt in foods, adding a glass full of saltwater to the mix is probably not going to do anyone any favours.


Here's the physical / quantum background to it, from post #17:

What you're pretending not to notice is that there's a *distinction* -- the plain term 'salt water' connotes someone dipping a cup into the ocean, or sprinkling table salt into a glass of water.

You're just being argumentative for the sake of it. If you don't want to do it, don't do it.

Here's the physical / quantum background to it...That's just a bunch of basic(no pun intended) shit packaged as some new age cures. The minerals in unrefined salt are extremely trace. You may well get more from McDonald's.

In fact those links contradict each other. One says that "negative ions" are good for you, more the better. "Negative ions" is a fancy way of saying acids. citric, chloride, bromide, iodide, sulfuric, lysergic, whatever.

The next touts how much more balanced unrefined salt is, yet claims that it has less acids percentage wise, and that acids are bad for you. They claim that the bases are good for you. Sodium, potassium, uranium, cocaine, whatever.

Now there are a few things where adjusting your diet's ph may have a medical effect. Heartburn or ulcers, osteoporosis, or the rate of absorption or excretion of a substance. It is not a miracle cure or new. Nor are the products they're pitching particularly effect for that end.

So, to recap:

- All illnesses in the body are caused by pathogens -- you can use Rife frequencies (engineered sound waves) to *eradicate* those pathogens, according to any particular illness. Do a search for 'youtube newtimer5' to get these for free.

- The negative ions provided by a sole salt solution assist cellular function and mitigate illness. Unrefined sea salt -- plus a glass jar -- is inexpensive and will last weeks and months.


And now:

- Diseases, including cancer, cannot take place in a bodily environment of alkalinity. One can use an inexpensive box of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) to instantly create alkalinity in the body, to forestall -- or even eliminate -- the existence of disease-causing pathological growths.

Interesting development -- here's a very easy, quick way to get structured water:

I went to the dollar store and got a couple small bags of glass beads, as for use in a vase with plants -- they're not even perfectly round, though round marbles would probably be preferable, technically.

I found a plastic pint-sized squeezable water bottle and put the two bags of glass beads into it, then added water, screwed the cap on, and shook it vigorously like a cocktail shaker, for about 30 seconds. (I then had to add a couple of miscellaneous plastic pieces to take up the space and stabilize all the pieces within the container against the shaking so that the glass beads don't move around. I didn't even have to remove the glass beads from their original plastic mesh bags. I did wash everything with detergent first.)

So the whole water bottle is significantly *heavier*, obviously, but the repeated shaking of the water against all of the glass beads (or marbles) is sufficient to break down the molecular clusters, as happens naturally from the water's path through streams and rivers.

The test is to pour out the structured water -- by whatever means -- into a clear glass and compare side-by-side with regular (tap) water. Structured water is 'sparklier' in the light, and is much 'slippery-er' in texture. It can become *so* thin that it becomes almost impossible to drink it without drooling it somewhat, because of that physical quality.

Medicine is not bourgeois or proletarian. Chemicals do not have class interests, nor do they care if you are a sweatshop worker or the richest bourgie on Earth. They either cure you, harm you, or have no effect regardless. We may criticize medicinal institutions, but not because they use the scientific method.

The scientific method - which involves evidence-based, peer-reviewed research and development of medicine - is just as good for us as it is for the bourgeoisie, I would believe. This is just a load of scientific-sounding words mashed together in order to appear legit. You are unwilling to provide any proper evidence that this works. If a medical scientist told his or her peers that they should do the research themselves if they don't believe his or her invention works, they'd be laughed out of the scientific arena in seconds.

I'm not claiming any credentials, or even credibility, regarding any of this stuff -- it's strictly f.y.i., based on my own forays into the information that's out there and my own follow-ups from experience.

In terms of *theory*, one possible *critique*, though, of the bourgeois (mainstream) 'approach' to medicine is that it's *reductionist*, in line with the common approach to *all* scientific investigations -- deductive reasoning, basically, as differentiated from *inductive* reasoning.

This isn't to question the validity or efficacy of this-or-that drug, but rather to say that such isn't the only *possible* approach to the issue of treatments / interventions regarding health.





You are unwilling to provide any proper evidence that this works.


In post #67 I described a method for thinning / 'restructuring' water that is accessible to *anyone* -- one only needs to get marbles, glass beads, or even just an assortment of small stones from nature anywhere to duplicate this 'experiment' and obtain results for oneself.





If a medical scientist told his or her peers that they should do the research themselves if they don't believe his or her invention works, they'd be laughed out of the scientific arena in seconds.


This is a *contradiction*, since you just mentioned 'evidence-based, peer-reviewed research', which is synonymous *with* 'peers [doing] the research themselves'.





Yes, I too am aware of the placebo effect. It is the key behind the success of homeopathy, after all.

Also borax:





Borax is considered an antimicrobial compound, a fungicide, anti-inflammatory, and detoxifying agent. As such, the substance is effective for preventing the accumulation of fluorides and other toxic substances in the body, removing parasites and bacteria, treating molds and other fungi and chelating the system of heavy metals. Borax also stimulates the production of important hormones and stabilizes calcium, copper and magnesium levels in the body to inhibit calcification.

Sodium borate is also effective for treating a variety of specific ailments. As an anti-inflammatory agent, borax effectively treats arthritis, gout, swollen gums and other inflammatory diseases. Additionally, the substance eliminates infection such as bladder infection, urinary tract infection and others. It has also been used to treat cancer, obesity, high blood pressure, arterial disease and osteoporosis.

What Are the Health Benefits of Crushed Red Pepper?

Crushed red pepper is a great addition to a meal and can help reduce inflammation.

If you want more flavor in your food plus health benefits like weight loss and pain relief, try adding crushed red pepper to your meals. In traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda, a traditional form of Indian medicine, red peppers have been used to treat digestive problems, circulatory problems, infections and arthritis. Most crushed red pepper mixtures contain a variety of different peppers such as bell, jalapeno, ancho and cayenne peppers, which range from mild and peppery to hot and spicy. The pepper seeds are included to increase the spice level.

As usual you both would rather issue a sweeping, summary opinion statement without dealing with the actual subject matter.

What you're trying to do here is go back into your threads and add content that is more reasonable. For example, going into a thread about magical salt usage, with ts absolute lack of peer reviewed research/science, and post things about nutrition. Therefore, in your manipulative social magician mind, because one thing is relatively established, the other will be bought more easily as well.

Also to note is the question of whether dietary alterations can cure acute conditions in the way that you're describing with peppers. Isolating an element in the pepper and extracting it for further study doesn't mean that eating red pepper can cure inflammation, in everyone, or even generally. I like blueberries and peppers but they have no noticeable impact on inflammation, for me- whereas current studies do show that elements in peppers may offer future breakthroughs in treating inflammation.
