Forgot to reply to this... I've seen a lot of different brands of salt
that claim to be unrefined. I was under the impression that true
unrefined salt is brown from the layer of mineral sediment that settles
below the salt. But the "unrefined" salt I bought was white. I won't
start any fires and ask if salt is paleo (although my long-overdue copy
of Neanderthin has been despatched, and I'm looking forward to
comparing the sodium/sat fat arguments with Cordain's), so I would just
like to know what colour paleo salt is, and if I can buy it (in the
UK). Also, I'd like to know what the ideal quantity of salt is,
bearing in mind I always believed the sodium/potassium balance found in
paleo food was already ideal (or am I missing the point)?
