Solé (pronounced so-lay) is a mineral tonic made by dissolving pure salt (such as Kalahari Salt), into water.

It was introduced by the book Water and Salt: The Essence of Life.

Because it contains salt and trace amounts of other electrolytes, solé functions similarly to electrolyte drinks that people take to replenish lost minerals and to rehydrate the body.

We know that salt performs a wide variety of functions in the human body and is essential for health when taken in appropriate amounts.

Accordingly, drinking solé or salting your foods to taste can help support systemic wellness.

• Mineral-rich salt supports hydration. Your body’s ability to hydrate effectively depends on salt and other electrolytes

• Salt supports Ph balance. Salt and other electrolytes support pH balance and help transport nutrients to cells

• Salt supports digestion. The chloride in salt is necessary for producing stomach acid, and salt itself supports the transport of nutrients in the small intestines

• The right amount of salt supports metabolic health. Low-salt diets may aggravate insulin resistance
