If you're looking to improve your health, consuming alkaline-promoting foods (including alkalizing salts) is a great place to start. But what are alkalizing salts, and how can they benefit you? Let's take a look.

How an Alkaline Diet Impacts Your Health

Traditionally, the terms "alkalizing" or "alkaline" have been used to describe a dietary strategy designed to promote an alkaline (rather than acidic) environment in the body. Known as an "alkaline diet," this is accomplished by eating foods high in nutrients (such as fruit and vegetables) and low in sugar, meat, and processed foods. This type of diet is based on the theory that consuming certain foods increases acid within your body and negatively affect your health.

The goal of an alkaline diet is to reduce levels of inflammation and oxidative stress in the body by reducing acidity, promoting proper digestion, and improving metabolic processes. As a result, following this type of diet may reduce the risk of cancer and other diseases.

While sticking to an alkaline diet is a smart way to support your overall health and alkalinity, incorporating alkalizing salts into your diet is another good option.

What Are Alkalizing Salts?

Salt is a vital nutrient that can help maintain normal blood pressure, provide flavor in food, and control water balance in the body (among other things). Alkalizing salts, such as bamboo salt, have even more health benefits because they are highly alkaline.

Three times roasted bamboo salt (also known as gray bamboo salt) has an alkalinity of 10.10 pH. Nine times roasted bamboo salt (sometimes called purple bamboo salt) has an alkalinity of 11.5 pH. Both of these types of bamboo salt are significantly more alkaline than table salt, which has a neutral pH of 7.

Why Bamboo Salt Is the Best Alkalizing Salt

Besides its alkalinity, there are many other reasons why bamboo salt is considered the healthiest, highest-quality salt on earth. Bamboo salt is rich in minerals, like calcium, potassium, and magnesium, all of which are essential minerals for the human body.

In medical studies, bamboo salt has been
proven to: 

  • Have antimicrobial benefits
  • Improve oral health by reducing plaque and gum irritation, strengthening enamel, and decreasing sensitivity
  • Boost immunity
  • Offer anticancer effects
  • Combat H. pylori infections
  • Work against skin aging
  • Ease gastrointestinal conditions
  • Reduce allergic reactions
