About salt

Today we gonna talk about salt.

This is a special issue, because when you go raw together with your family, you will discover that in cooked food is almost in every dish lots of it.

One or two sentences about the minerals in the salt, most people think we need.

First of all: If you use salt, please just use Himalayan Salt or high value sea salt. This is much better, and has more different minerals as component.

Second: If you make sure that you eat enough green (there we are again), than you do NOT need salt for that reason. But you have to make sure you eat lots of green, and also again wild edibles, they are so mineral rich, that you will be safe!!

When we started our diet we had still some salt together with our raw gourmet dishes. Most of the raw gourmet - which is good in the beginning because you will be able to substitute all your cravings - has salt in it.

But we discovered two problems coming up with the usage of salt.


1. It makes greedy. You are likely to eat more than you normally would, because the salt tastes good. We felt this greed sometimes not centered in the intuitive feeling that just needs this nutritious component right now, but more orientated as a taste. A pleasureful taste the tongue want to have more. The tongue not the body!

2. It covers the natural flavour of the beautiful Raw food. This means it is more difficult t connect with the inner voice, the inner feeling which speaks with a clear voice what it needs and how much of it.


So this is a tricky topic. Although it would be best to let go of the salt, to get a better connection to our deeper voice, and deeply feel all the great flavours and honour them, it is on the other hand also important not to make to radical changes.

If you can make radical changes - good. But we discovered, that it is more easy and more likely that you will stay raw, if you change slow but sure - better than all or nothing.

So our recommendation is: If you really have the feeling you or your kids need the salt, use it. But be conscious with it. We all tend to eat far too much of it. If it is possible try some time totally without it. Just to see how you feel, what difference it makes and to get a new point of view.

We did months and months without salt, and felt really good with it. Actually we felt better and closer to nature and total health with no salt.

So with this last sentences we will let you go in your day, together with your family.
Join them, appreciate them and love everything around you as much as you can!!

All our love to you
