Truth Behind Our World’s Most Essential Nutrient | Samantha Skyring Podcast

Wellness advocate and founder of Oryx Desert Salt Samantha Skyring beams in to talk about the incredible health benefits of ancient salt and how the medical-industrial complex colluded to condemn this essential nutrient on episode 117 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.

Samantha Skyring’s journey to becoming a salt guru began with a one hundred twenty kilometer walk through the Namib desert in Africa — just about the most profound way you can start anything in this life. Along the way she was inspired to create her company, Oryx Desert Salt…which is sourced from an ancient, ever-replenishing, sustainable underground salt lake in the pristine and remote Kalahari Desert of Southern Africa.
