Summary

This product is primarily composed of sea salt, a minimally processed ingredient. However, the inclusion of sodium hexacyanoferrate ll as an anti-caking agent introduces a synthetic element that detracts from its natural appeal. While the processing level is relatively low, the presence of this additive affects the overall perception of purity and quality.
