Himalayan pink salt

Himalayan pink salt is a type of rock salt harvested from ancient salt deposits in the Himalayan Mountains, primarily in Pakistan. It is known for its distinctive pink color, which comes from trace minerals like iron and magnesium. Often used as a cooking ingredient and finishing salt, it is also marketed for its purported health benefits, such as improving hydration and balancing electrolytes, though scientific support for these claims is limited. Additionally, Himalayan pink salt is popular for decorative purposes, such as salt lamps and teacups, due to its attractive appearance.
