Nature salt (Uyuni lake)
( raw materials salt)

HISTORY
The trademark "Salar" originated about 40,000 years ago, while it formed the Salar de Uyuni, natural source from where you have extracted the SALT, is removed and will forever be extracted to meet the needs of humanity, since it is a renewable natural resource. The origins "From the Salt" is due to the fossilization of saline water accumulated in the Great Basin of the Lipez, is the remnant of a prehistoric lake in the Andes.

The Uyuni Salar, is the world's largest, covers an area of 10,582 km2, is located in southwestern Bolivia, 550 kilometers south of the city of La Paz, Potosí Department and Region of the Lipez. Stores the largest salt reserves in the world (about 64.000 million MT) and is the highest in the world located at 3653 meters, so it is considered one of the most decontaminated the planet. Its extraction is an ancient practice of thousands of years linked to the Culture of the Lipez. It was the key resource of the economy and food for the people around them (the llama caravans allowed for the exchange of salt products such as corn, wheat in the valleys and the coast).

PRODUCCTION
The capacity to process 8500 tons of salt per year at its three product lines: salt for human consumption, salt and spices and industrial salt.

The process is completely natural: Rain, sun and wind are essential for a good crop of salt crystals. It is naturally extracted and processed and packaged with simple equipment to stainless steel base. Salar salt is natural and healthy and has no expiration date. The most important thing is that the products of Salt "Salar" do not have a refining process.

We offer extreme purity (99.56%) and white, without toxins or contaminants, rich in minerals and trace elements like calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium.

PRODUCT
We have a product line differentiated by Salt Selected size for their products: salt, salt and salt Sliding Grill, with presentations in bags of 1 Kg. We are currently having boxes for 500 Grs., Salt Sachet boxes of 100 units of 1 Gm. and plastic packaging for Sal Grill 750 Grs.

A second line is the Salt with Spices differentiated Sliding mixed with garlic salt, onion and chili pods locoto balanced with 100% natural herbs, which facilitate the preparation of traditional dishes. We are currently working on packaging design, glass bottle and PET.

Iodised salt (also spelled iodized salt) is table salt mixed with a minute amount of various iodine-containing salts. The ingestion of iodide prevents iodine deficiency. Worldwide, iodine deficiency affects about two billion people and is the leading preventable cause of mental retardation.   It also causes thyroid gland problems, including endemic goitre. In many countries, iodine deficiency is a major public health problem that can be cheaply addressed by iodisation of salt.
Iodine is a micronutrient that is naturally present in the food supply in many regions. However, where natural levels of iodine in the soil are low and the iodine is not taken up by vegetables, iodine added to salt provides the small but essential amount needed by humans.
Iodide-treated table salt slowly loses its iodine content through the process of oxidation and iodine evaporation.
Salt, also known as table salt, or rock salt, is a mineral that is composed primarily of sodium chloride (NaCl), a chemical compound belonging to the larger class of ionic salts. It is essential for animal life in small quantities, but is harmful to animals and plants in excess. Salt is one of the oldest, most ubiquitous food seasonings and salting is an important method of food preservation. The taste of salt (saltiness) is one of the basic human tastes.

Salt for human consumption is produced in different forms: unrefined salt (such as sea salt), refined salt (table salt), and iodized salt. It is a crystalline solid, white, pale pink or light gray in color, normally obtained from sea water or rock deposits. Edible rock salts may be slightly grayish in color because of mineral content.
Chloride and sodium ions, the two major components of salt, are needed by all known living creatures in small quantities. Salt is involved in regulating the water content (fluid balance) of the body. The sodium ion itself is used for electrical signaling in the nervous system. Because of its importance to survival, salt has often been considered a valuable commodity during human history. However, as salt consumption has increased during modern times, scientists have become aware of the health risks associated with too much salt intake, including high blood pressure. Therefore health authorities have recommended limitations of dietary sodium.  The United States Department of Health and Human Services recommends that individuals consume no more than 1500–2300 mg of sodium (3750–5750 mg of salt) per day depending on age.

Consumer Tips for Salt Use
Besides making foods delicious, it's believed there are more than 14,000 uses of salt, and our grandmothers were probably
familiar with most of them. Many of these uses were for simple things around the home before the advent of modern chemicals and cleaners. However, many uses are still valid today and a lot cheaper than using more sophisticated products.

Rose Salt, this speckled pink jewel of the Bolivian Andes gets its gorgeous and distinctive color from its high iron content.
For more than 3 million years, a layer of volcanic lava has covered these rose salt deposits – protecting them from pollution, preserving their pure taste and infusing this pink salt with essential minerals.
Now, Bolivian Rose Salt is hand-harvested and hand-processed, making this ancient treasure from the Andes Mountain Range in Bolivia available in your kitchen and on your table.
