Mineral composition

The Dead Sea's mineral composition differs from that of ocean water, varying with season, rainfall, depth, and temperature. In particular, the salt in most oceans is approximately 97% sodium chloride while Dead Sea salt is only 12-18% sodium chloride. An analysis of major ion concentrations in the water of the Dead Sea gave the following results. ^[2]

Major ions of Dead Sea water

Ion	Concentration (mg/L)
Chloride and Bromide	230,400
Magnesium	45,900
Sodium	36,600
Calcium	17,600
Potassium	7800

The Dead Sea's overall salt concentration is 340 g/L. ^[2]

On the other hand, the compounds used in retail Dead Sea salt are obtained from the mineral-rich mud of the Dead Sea. Runoff streams flowing into the Dead Sea brought in large deposits of this gray-black mud during the Holocene era. An analysis by Dr. Olga Yoffe at the Geological Survey in Jerusalem determined the major minerals present in this mud. ^[2]

[] Therapeutic benefit

The Dead Sea is a popular center for wellness and health today, ^[4]  Dead Sea salts have been reported to have the following benefits:

Rheumatologic Conditions  – Dead Sea salts can be effective in balneotherapy of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and osteoarthritis. The minerals are absorbed while soaking, stimulating blood circulation. ^[5]

Common skin ailments  – Research has demonstrated that skin disorders such as acne and psoriasis are relieved by regular soaking in water with added Dead Sea salt. The National Psoriasis Foundation recommends Dead Sea and Dead Sea salts as effective treatments for psoriasis. ^[6]  One study ^[7]  concluded that the high concentration of magnesium in Dead Sea salt was instrumental in improving skin hydration and reducing inflammation. ^[8]

Allergies  - The high concentration of bromide and magnesium in the Dead Sea salt can relieve allergic reactions by cleansing and detoxifying. ^[8]

Skin ageing  – Further research into Dead Sea salt benefits has shown a 40% reduction in the depth of wrinkling. ^[8
