Himalayan Natives 100% Natural Himalayan Black salt, also known as Kala Namak, is produced from the natural halites in the Himalayan salt ranges. Our Black Salt is made using the traditional method of kiln-fire, where the raw salts are fired into a kiln for 24 hours sealed in a ceramic jar along with small quantities of harad seeds, amla, Behera, babul bark or natron. The colour of the salt might range from brownish-pink to dark violet. Since the Vedic ages, Black Salt is considered to have multiple therapeutic benefits. It is considered as a cooling agent and is also used as a laxative and to help digestion, poor eyesight, and hysteria.
