The Salt Has A Name

Every Brand Says "Sea Salt." We Can Tell You Which One.

Most labels stop at "sea salt" or "sodium chloride." Ours is Celtic Sea Salt®, the original unrefined sea salt, trusted since 1976. It does more than add sodium. It brings minerals with it.

01

Named, Not Generic

One trademarked, unrefined salt. Not bulk sodium from whoever is cheapest.

02

Minerals Stay In

Refining strips salt down to sodium chloride. Celtic keeps its magnesium, potassium, and calcium. That's why it's grey.

03

Tested At Both Ends

Certified at the source. Then every finished batch tested for minerals, heavy metals, and purity.

If a brand won't name its salt, ask why. We put ours on the bag.

From Sea To Stick Pack

Where Your Salt Comes From Matters.

Where electrolytes work in the body: brain focus, nerve signaling, muscle function, fluid balance, and replacing what is lost through sweat
800mg

Sodium per stick, every milligram from Celtic Sea Salt®. Standard refined sodium chloride is sodium and chloride, nothing else. Celtic Sea Salt® is unrefined and carries magnesium, potassium, calcium, and trace elements in their natural balance. Most companies pick the cheaper salt to protect margins. We take the hit on cost so you get the superior mineral.
