himalayan salt
Himalayan pink salt is one of the purest, most mineral-rich, and most extraordinary natural salts available anywhere on earth, and at Premier Halite we bring you premium-grade Himalayan salt products in two essential forms: pure edible salt for your kitchen and therapeutic bath salt for your wellness routine. Both are sourced directly from the ancient Khewra Salt Mine in Pakistan and delivered to your door anywhere in Canada with fast, reliable shipping.
The Story of Himalayan Salt
The story of Himalayan salt begins over 250 million years ago, when vast ancient seas covered the region that would eventually become the Himalayan mountain range. As those seas evaporated over millions of years, the salt they contained crystallized and was buried deep beneath layers of rock and earth, where it remained sealed and protected from the outside world for hundreds of millions of years. The result of that extraordinary geological process is a salt of remarkable purity, untouched by modern pollution, industrial contamination, or environmental degradation, that contains over 84 naturally occurring trace minerals including iron, magnesium, calcium, potassium, and zinc.
The distinctive pink color of Himalayan salt comes from trace amounts of iron oxide within the crystal structure, the same mineral compound that gives rust its red color and Mars its famous hue. This natural coloring is both an indicator of the salt’s mineral richness and one of its most immediately recognizable and beautiful qualities. When you see that soft pink color in your salt grinder or your bath, you are seeing evidence of the genuine mineral content that makes Himalayan salt so different from the chemically processed white salt that fills most grocery store shelves.
Why It Is Different From Regular Salt
Unlike commercial table salt, which is heavily processed, bleached white, stripped of its natural minerals, and then treated with artificial anti-caking agents and often artificially iodized, Himalayan pink salt is minimally processed. It is mined, washed, and ground. Nothing is added and nothing is removed. What reaches your kitchen or your bathtub is exactly what nature created hundreds of millions of years ago.

Edible Salt is available in fine, medium, and coarse grinds for every cooking application, from everyday seasoning and baking to finishing salt and salt grinding. Our edible Himalayan salt is food-grade, non-GMO, and completely additive-free, with a complex, rounded mineral flavor that noticeably surpasses the flat, sharp taste of standard table salt.
Bath Salt is pure Himalayan pink salt for dissolving in warm bathwater to create a deeply therapeutic soak that soothes tired muscles, hydrates and softens skin, and promotes full-body relaxation through the gentle transdermal absorption of natural minerals.
