Summary

Salt is an ancient mineral that’s essential to our bodies. But not all salt is created equal. Take a journey to the salt pan of the Kalahari Desert with the founder of Oryx Desert Salt, Samantha Skyring. Dr. Motley sat down with Sam to discuss how salt fuels our bodies, the hidden dangers of sea salt and plastic packaging as well as how she sources powerful desert salt. Samantha’s experiment: If your energy is dragging, try reaching for a glass of water with a tablespoon of Oryx salt (or Himalayan salt) and some lemon in the morning, and start noticing how your body feels with a little extra salt in your system. ------ Follow Doctor Motley!
