Salt

Salt marketing claims 84 minerals. Lab data shows the reality. We're testing the top brands.

Verification in progress

What this category will cover

Premium salt brands make sweeping mineral claims with no standardized testing. Different sources contain vastly different mineral profiles and potential contaminants like microplastics and heavy metals. We're commissioning independent lab analysis to create transparent comparisons.

Evaluation criteria

1

Mineral profile

Full elemental analysis: which minerals and at what concentrations

2

Heavy metals

Lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury, and aluminum levels per serving

3

Microplastics

Particle count and type, especially in sea salt sources

4

Source verification

Mine location, extraction method, and processing transparency
