So, what is himalayan pink salts?

Himalayan pink salt is a type of rock salt that is mined from the Khewra Salt Mine in the Punjab region of Pakistan. It gets its distinctive pink color from the presence of trace minerals such as iron, magnesium, and potassium. Not only does it add flavor to dishes, but it also contains some nutrients that are beneficial to health. It's believed to help regulate blood sugar levels, improve respiratory function, and promote healthy sleep patterns. Due to its unique appearance and perceived health benefits, Himalayan pink salt has become a popular ingredient among health-conscious consumers and gourmet chefs alike.
