Can you use dead sea salt as table salt? or is it jsut for body scrubs?!

Answers:
"Dead Sea salt" is NOT just "table salt" and you'd probably want to spit it out if you used it!.
Table salt, or sodium chloride, is just one type of the chemical compound called a salt" (a compound basicallly composed of an acid and a base) whereas the "salt" from the Dead Sea or Great Salt Lake contains lots of different "salts" made from all kinds of minerals (as well as sodium chloride)!. And some of those salts are *very* bitter tasting!.
Some other "salts" are epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) --a "bath salt" that's used as an anti-imflammatory and skin "plumper," but when drunk in solution is a laxative, and smelling salts (which has a strong ammonia smell), as well as many others!.
