sea salt comes from the sea, table salt comes from the table.
Very similar. Both come from evaporation over a very long time. Sea Salt is unrefined and must be havested from areas at the edge or shoreline. Table Salt is refined and may come from a combination of sources including the shoreline & Salt mines. Mined Salt & Sea Salt will not contain iodine & must be added.
Iodized salt (BrE: iodised salt) is table salt mixed with a minute amount of potassium iodide, sodium iodide, or sodium iodate. Iodized salt is used to help reduce the incidence of iodine deficiency in humans. Iodine deficiency commonly leads to thyroid gland problems, specifically endemic goiter, a disease characterized by a swelling of the thyroid gland, usually resulting in a bulbous protrusion on the neck

Table Salt has added ingredients like Iodine which make it more nutritious. Sea Salt is pure and natural and tastes much better to me just because it's more unhealthy.
With sea salt.. it is much more natural. And condensed!
You probably only need to use half as much sea salt as you would while regularly using table salt.
Sea salt is so much better tasting!
