Background
The Wonderful Salt Company is based on research and scientific findings to provide its customers with the highest quality and most effective products. The salt used in the therapeutic salt lamps comes from mines in Europe, and it undergoes rigorous analysis processes in the laboratories of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. A comparative study was also conducted on salt from the Himalayas to highlight the differences and advantages of European salt.
Analysis Results
The chemical analysis was performed by Dr. Vasily Rosen from the analytical laboratory of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. The results of the analysis are presented in the table below, showing the concentrations of various elements in the two types of salt:
| Element | Salt from Europe (mg/kg) | Salt from the Himalayas (mg/kg) |
|---|---|---|
| Ag | <0.06 | <0.06 |
| Al | 14.26 | 175.0 |
| As | <0.5 | <0.5 |
| B | <0.6 | 3.849 |
| Ba | 0.45 | 0.711 |
| Ca | 334 | 21474 |
| Cd | <0.012 | <0.012 |
| Co | <0.05 | 0.079 |
| Cr | <0.03 | 0.169 |
| Cu | 56.9 | 98.7 |
| Fe | 17.5 | 116.0 |
| Hg | <0.12 | <0.12 |
| K | 1174 | 1728 |
| Li | 0.94 | 1.50 |
| Mg | 15.09 | 696 |
| Mn | 1.14 | 3.13 |
| Mo | 0.28 | 0.11 |
| Na | 411398 | 383341 |
| Ni | 0.066 | 0.19 |
| P | <3.3 | <3.3 |
| Pb | <0.33 | <0.33 |
| S | 329 | 20533 |
| Si | 26.5 | 528 |
| Sn | <0.4 | <0.4 |
| Sr | 27.7 | 180 |
| Ti | 0.26 | 0.74 |
| Tl | <0.4 | <0.4 |
| V | <0.04 | 0.39 |
| Zn | 0.16 | 0.29 |
Conclusions from the Analysis
- Purity of European Salt: The concentrations of heavy metals and contaminants in European salt are lower than in salt from the Himalayas. This is a significant advantage in terms of health and safety of use.
- Concentrations of Essential Elements: European salt contains high concentrations of sodium chloride (NaCl), which is the main active ingredient in therapeutic salt lamps, contributing to positive health effects.
- Advantage of Additional Elements: Some of the additional elements in salt from the Himalayas, such as calcium and magnesium, are found in high concentrations but may be less beneficial or even disruptive in dispersing salt molecules in the air. Additionally, high concentrations of these substances can be dangerous when inhaled, as some have been shown to be carcinogenic.
Importance of Preventive Medicine
The use of therapeutic salt lamps offers many benefits in the field of preventive medicine. Similar to preventive maintenance in technical fields, the lamps help prevent diseases and reduce existing symptoms continuously and consistently. This prevents the need for more complex treatments at a later time.
Importance of Preventive Medicine
Preventive medicine is a vital approach to maintaining public health. Through regular treatment and preventive maintenance, the risk of developing chronic diseases can be reduced, and overall quality of life can be improved. The salt lamps from the Wonderful Salt Company are an excellent example of using simple yet effective technology for preventive medicine.
