is there a differnce in these 2

[aggie49]

my family uses salt in moderation and my husband suggested that we use sea salt i don't see a difference to me itis  still salt

[natashaspy]

i prefer sea salt.  it's got a stronger taste to it and you don't need to use nearly as much.  the granules are much bigger as well so you adjust for that too.

I think Sea Salt is more natural and doesn't undergo various processing.

Yes, I do believe sea salt is still salt, but I'm likely to use less of it because it is quite strong, and as your other reader says, it is relatively unprocessed. I have noticed Himalayan salt appearing in grocery stores now which I'm really intrigued by. Notably this is the same Himalayan salt which offers purifying effects on the air. I have a lamp made out of Himalayan salt and a candle holder. They look really pretty.

Sea salt is considered a healthier choice for SOME people.  I have Hashimoto's and I'm suppose to avoid iodine; which is found, in table salt. 

Iodine is considered a mineral that is healthy for SOME people.  I think it's important to consider your own personal situation.

I just don't think to buy sea salt even though I've heard it is susposed to be better for you than table salt.  I'm going to try to remember to get some next time I go grocery shopping lol.  Thanks for this thread reminding me about it.

Well, here's a short article from the Mayo Clinic.  You be the judge:

Sea salt is healthier, more natural, less processed and less harmful.  I haven't used anything but plain (no iodine) sea salt for years.  I get it at the natural grocer.  I'm convinced it's better for me and tastes better.  I also use raw/turbinado sugar.

I only use Sea Salt, so it has my endorsement. lol

[jenniferhoder]

I LOVE salt!!! I do think sea salt might be a bit stronger tho!!!

[mardukblood2009]

I just use salt. I have used sea salt but I really forget what it is like now.

[fjaz1]

Yes there is a difference.

[timvolley]

I have never used sea salt

[jmc1982]

I don't see the difference either

[pkrahmer]

yes there is a difference. I prefer sea salt it has a much stronger flavor therefore you tend to use less. It is also a more natural form of salt and is less processed than regular salt.
