      Our forbears already knew that salt is essential for life. Salt resources were quite big treasure and were strictly guarded. The salt itself was power and money. That is why it was called the white gold

 During thousands of years, lots of theories were given regarding the myths of origin of the salt. According to Aristotle, it was raw material from the deep Earth. People from the medieval times were thinking that it has aroused by the power of the sun, while others ascribed to the positive effect of the streams.

      The salt used for healing, as part of the medicine, was applied like an essential tool in the hygiene. The ancient Greeks and Romains cured with salt; they used the salt bath for pampering their tired limbs.
