Difficult to spend it in restaurants today though. -Every cell in the body contains salt - an adult contains about 250 grammes, equivalent to a box of Maldon Salt. -In old Japanese theatres, salt was sprinkled on to the stage before each performance to prevent evil spirits from casting a spell on the actors. Sprinkling salt around your home may have the same effect today. -Salt is used to remove traces of water from aviation fuel after it is purified. -At one time salt bars were the standard currency of Ethiopia. It’s still worth taking a pack of Maldon, for emergencies. -Salt was used to preserve Egyptian mummies (and in the pies eaten by Egyptian daddies). -Salt removes red wine stains (though probably not from your best cream carpet). -Sodium is key in the operation of all signals within, as well as to and from, the brain.
