what are the contents or ingredients inside a salt/table salt?

Answer 1

Edible salt, also called table salt or just salt, is a mineral, and is one of the few rocks commonly eaten by humans. There are different forms of edible salt: unrefined salt, refined salt, table salt and iodised salt. It is a crystalline solid, white, pale pink or light grey in color, normally obtained from sea water or rock deposits. Natural sea salt includes vital trace minerals in addition to sodium chloride. Edible rock salts may be slightly greyish in color due to this mineral content.

Sodium and chloride, the two components of salt, are necessary for the survival of all living creatures, including humans, but they need not be consumed as salt, where they are found together in very concentrated form. Some isolated cultures, such as the Yanomami in South America, have been found to consume little salt.[1] Salt is involved in regulating the water content (fluid balance) of the body. Salt flavor is one of the basic tastes. Salt cravings may be caused by trace mineral deficiencies as well as by a deficiency of sodium chloride itself.
