Jenny,
Yes, on page 104 in my book I recommend sea salt rather
than buying just any salt. Most salt sold in supermarkets
contains dextrose. Crazy, huh? See this url >

a good
quality ocean sea salt, such as Celtic or Himalayan which contains over 80
minerals, is far
better for us than regular table salt. So, if anyone was to give this a try, I
would highly
recommend using a good quality ocean sea salt, over regular table salt.
