Yes, but I think we all know the original post "meant"

Is that what distinguishes the compound "table salt"
from "sea salt"? The inclusion of organic elements?
I am in the dark here, biochemically. What is it that
would reduce the bioavailability of sodium chloride if
it is packaged as table salt?
