So, it is just marketing lingo? Here in my house, for example, we use sea
salt, which comes straight, without additives of any sort, from the many
salt pans around. If my wife needs it finely ground, she gives it a twirl in
a food processor...
It is really healthier to ingest the iodine we require in natural food.
Cheers
