Discover the Essence of Pure Salt Giddy Yo Maras Pink Mountain Salt is not just any salt; it is a testament to purity, tradition, and quality. Harvested (not mined) from an ancient saline reservoir nestled in the Andes Mountains, near the town of Maras, Peru, our pink mountain salt stands out as a premium choice for health-conscious consumers seeking the best.
Ancient Harvesting Tradition Our salt's journey begins with pre-Inca communities who discovered a naturally salty underground stream. Ingeniously, they developed channels to direct this stream into handmade stone and mud mortar walled ponds, approximately 13 square feet in size. Today, about 4,500 of these salt ponds cascade down the mountainside, each owned by local families dedicated to this time-honoured practice.
Pure, Naturally Evaporated Salt The harvesting process is a meticulous labor of love. Locals fill the ponds with a few inches of saline water and allow the sun to evaporate the water over three days. This process is repeated over a month, gradually forming 3–4 inches of pristine salt. Each pond yields 150–200 kilos of salt per month, with the pink salt forming the top layer – the highest quality salt reserved for the discerning gourmet.
WHY CHOOSE GIDDY YO MARAS PINK MOUNTAIN SALT?
- Free from Ocean Plastics: Unlike ocean-derived salts, our pink mountain salt is untouched by ocean pollutants, ensuring a pure, clean salt free from micro and nano-particles of plastic. According to research conducted by the IAEA Department of Nuclear Sciences and Applications, “Nanoplastic particles are even more toxic to living organisms as they are more likely to be absorbed through the walls of digestive tracts and thereby transported into the tissues and organs. Consequently, such plastic particles can interfere with various physiological processes, from neurotransmission to oxidative stress and immunity levels”.
- Rich in Essential Minerals: Packed with vital minerals like magnesium, potassium, and calcium, our salt enhances your diet with natural nutrients essential for your well-being.

Beware of Imitations Not all salts are created equal. Many commercial salts undergo heavy processing and contain unwanted additives like anti-caking and flowing agents, sugar, and even flouride! Giddy Yo Maras Pink Mountain Salt contains none of these ingredients, and instead offers a naturally pure alternative that retains its essential minerals and natural flavour, ensuring you get the healthiest, most flavourful salt possible. The ingredients in our salt are simple- 100% pink mt. salt from the Maras salt pans- that's it, that's all!
Maras Salt vs. Ocean-Derived Salts (Plastic Concerns)
Many people are unaware that most sea salts, including those harvested from the ocean, are now tainted with micro- and nano-plastics due to widespread plastic pollution in our oceans and waterways that feed into the oceans. These plastics can accumulate in the human and aquatic life body over time, leading to potential health risks such as inflammation and cellular damage.
But worry not,there is a solution! Because Giddy Yo pink mt. salt originates from a natural spring high in the Andes, untouched by the modern pollution issues the ocean currently faces, Giddy Yo salt is free from harmful contaminants like micro and nano-plastics, as well as industrial contaminants often found in mined salt. For those concerned about environmental toxins, this makes Giddy Yo a superior choice.
How Giddy Yo Pink Mt. Salt Compares to Celtic Sea Salt and Himalayan Salt:
While Celtic sea salt and Himalayan salt are both popular choices for unrefined salt, Giddy Yo salt has several key advantages:
- Celtic Sea Salt: Although it retains its natural minerals, Celtic salt is ocean-derived, meaning it's susceptible to the same plastic contamination issues as other sea salts.
- Himalayan Salt: Mined from ancient salt deposits in Pakistan, Himalayan salt is another common alternative. However, heavy mining practices and the transportation footprint associated with Himalayan salt raise human labour and environmental concerns. Moreover, some Himalayan salt contains higher levels of iron oxide, giving it a pink hue but a slightly metallic taste. Buyer beware, Pink Himalayan salt has been known to contain added dyes and colouring agents.
In contrast, Giddy Yo mt. salt stands out for its purity, sustainability, and local economic benefits. Its flavour is often considered more nuanced than that of Himalayan salt, making it a favoured choice with those in the 'know', who care about purity and perfection!
Essential for Survival Salt is indispensable for life, playing a crucial role in hydration, nerve function, and overall health. Our salt provides these benefits without the drawbacks of processed or polluted salts, making it an essential part of a healthy diet.
Methods of Consuming Unrefined Salt for Maximum Nutrient Absorption
- Under the Tongue: Placing a pinch of unrefined salt under the tongue allows for faster absorption of minerals directly into the bloodstream.
- In Water: Dissolving a small amount of salt in warm water (often referred to as sole) can aid in hydration and mineral replenishment, especially after exercise or during fasting.
