Table salt vs. Sea Salt


Question: I've heard that sea salt is better for you than regular salt. Is that true?



Answer: It's a popular thought, but it's actually a myth. If you compare food labels, you will find that they contain the exact same amount of sodium per teaspoon. However, sea salt generally has a more potent flavor and, therefore, you may use less and decrease your sodium intake that way.
