The salt thus obtained is not refined and does not contain any whitening, anti-caking or anti-humidity agents (e.g.: ferrocyanide, tricalciumphosphate, alumine-calcium silicate, ...); It owes its high nutritional value to the absence of a refining process. In this manner, the micronutrients from the sea are preserved optimally (e.g.:: magnesium, potassium, ...); This salt undergoes continuous quality controls relating to the nutritional parameters, the toxicity (e.g. heavy metals) and microbiological contamination; The rich flavour of natural sea salt is incomparable to the sterile taste of industrial salt; ; Unrefined and still white, is that possible ? Careful manual harvesting ensures that a thin layer of salt is left on the bottom of the salt marsh, which constitutes a natural barrier between the salt to be harvested and the soil. In this manner, the Lima salt remains white. Shelf Life: 999 Days 35.3 Ounce
