It's touted in the wellness world as a 'healthier' salt because it's more natural and contains essential minerals. But is this true? Tara looks at the latest research by Nutrition Research Australia which examines the levels of nutrients in pink salt, and whether these levels are high enough to warrant it being a healthier salt.
