Chloride

Description:

Often ignored and actively restricted – needed for life

Chloride is one of the electrolytes – helping all electrical conductivity of the heart and cells.

Also for correct brain growth and activity.

Why:

It helps regulate the correct acid-alkaline balance in the blood, and the passage of fluids across cell membranes.

It is needed for the production of hydrochloric acid, hence for protein digestion, and activates the production of amylase enzymes needed for carbohydrate digestion.

Solution:

Most commonly found in salt.

Eat more salt – especially the sea or enriched with mineral versions.
