This established the expression, “not worth a pound of salt”. It also gave rise to the word “salary”, in that the Latin word it derived from meant “a sum given to soldiers to buy salt”. Salt is effective as a preservative because it reduces the water activity of foods. The water activity of a food is the amount of unbound water available for microbial growth and chemical reactions. Salt is commonly used to help preserve meat. Salt is mainly used as a food additive and seasoning. The major benefits of salt are aiding the balance of electrolytes and fluids, carrying nutrients into cells, regulating acid-base balance, supporting transfer of nerve impulses, regulating blood pressure, and secretion of gastric acid. Historical Uses:  seasoning, preservative Mystical Attributes:  Salts purify environments by attracting and trapping airborne pollutants, dust, and allergens. Water vapor is drawn into the crystals, thus acting somewhat as a dehumidifier, potentially helping respiratory ailments. Speleotherapy (also called “cave therapy”) involves breathing the “cleansed” air inside of salt caves. Salt has always been used in amulets of protection and banishing due to its cleansing properties. Dissolve salts in cold water and use to purify your ritual tools that won’t be damaged by water and salt. Salt is poured across doorways and window sills to keep negative and evil entities from entering. Salt creates a magical protective barrier and is used for casting a circle. Some place salt in the four corners of the room before casting. Salt is also thrown to ward off malevolent spirits and energies. Salt is used in witch bottles for protection. It is bad luck to lend salt to someone, as it may lead to a feud between the lender and borrower. The person borrowing it may also use it as a magical link to curse you. If someone spills salt at dinner, a violent family quarrel may be on the way. If you spill salt, you must throw it over your shoulder to bring good luck and keep evil at bay. Light black candles, burn uncrossing incense, and take a bath in salt water with angelica, basil, rosemary, chamomile, hyssop, mugwort, and egg shell powder to help break a curse.
