Himalayan Pink Salt Product Benefits

Ever stepped into a spa and been amazed by a juicy pink wall that somehow managed to immediately make you feel more relaxed? That’s likely Himalayan salt in action. I’m talking about, in particular, solid bricks or tiles of Pink Himalayan salt. They’re not just pretty to look at they have health perks, culinary uses and interior design vibes, too. Whether you’re hoping to enhance your wellness routine or just give your home a hit of extra good looks, it helps to know what these pink wonders can do.

Where Does It Come From?

Pink Himalayan salt is harvested from the Khewra Salt Mine, which is the second largest salt mine in the world, and is located at the foothills of the Salt Range in the Punjab region of Pakistan. This is one of the world’s oldest and largest salt mines.

What Makes It Pink?

Unlike table salt, this kind has some trace minerals in it, such as calcium, magnesium and potassium. These naturally occurring inclusions not only have slight health benefits, but also provide the salt its trademark pink-orange color.

Salt Tiles vs Salt Bricks

Though sometimes considered interchangeable, salt tiles are generally thinner and used for decorative or wall applications, whereas the bricks are thicker and more appropriate for structural or high-heat uses, like saunas or grilling.

Other Popular Forms

Salt cooking blocks

Salt inhalers
