As you know, Ocean’s Flavor Natural Sea Salts is the world leader in the sale
and distribution of natural less sodium sea salts. This low sodium
sea salt choice comes from a beautiful lagoon in a sleepy village
in Mexico.
Each year gray whales swim 5000 miles from the Arctic
Ocean to Baja in Mexico. They make this extraordinary migration
because
they instinctively know that tranquil, warm and saline-rich
waters await – waters perfect for giving birth and nurturing their
baby
whales.
Laguna Ojo de Liebre is a sheltered lagoon which offers
warmth to the newborns whales, helping to prevent loss of body
temperature.
This sanctuary of shallow and calm waters gives safety for the
calves and their mothers. The salinity of the lagoon – an average
of 3.5% higher saline content than the open ocean – means the
baby whales expend less energy keeping themselves warm and staying
afloat. Their first breaths taken at the surface of the waters
are made easier by their increased buoyancy in the salty waters.
In
this stunning lagoon, with its temperate waters, it is the perfect
place to harvest the all natural, low sodium sea salts.
Although Mexico was not the first location, it was chosen for
its perfect weather and gorgeous, warm waters. Ocean’s Flavor
all natural sea salt was founded in an ancient Aztec lagoon
which produced the magnificent balmy waters, so finding a similar
area
to produce the natural sea salts was important. After searching
the world for a suitable location, we came across a sleepy little
town in Latin America which possessed the right environment,
the ideal climate and the required processing support that would
be
needed for optimum natural less sodium salt production.
In Laguna
Ojo de Liebre newborn calves that are just learning to swim
can do so without turbulent waves, and mothers and babies
can stay close together in the rather still waters which is
also the perfect environment for harvesting the sea salt. So as
the
whales enjoy the waters and grow, Ocean’s Flavor’s specialized
process optimizes this exceptional environment's natural ability
to produce salt. Using a patented natural method of harvest,
Ocean’s Flavor’s cultivation and evaporation with nature’s wind
and sun
means working within the pure ecosystem of the lagoon for a
natural sea salt … from start to finish.
Within the unique and vital gray
whale biosphere of Laguna Ojo de Liebre, lies one of the world’s
richest natural sea salt deposits.
The deposits were formed naturally over years and they are what
give the lagoons waters its salinity. Seawater tides have periodically
saturated the lagoon grounds, forming large shallow ponds which
the wind and sun slowly evaporate, leaving abundant and natural
salt ponds.
Traditional table salt and our all natural, reduced
sodium sea salts are very different. With recommendations to
reduce the sodium
content of the food supply, government agencies, public health
and consumer organizations, health professionals, the health
insurance industry, the food industry, and public- private partnerships
are augmenting activities to support consumers in reducing sodium
intake.
Over the past ten years, Ocean's Flavor has become the
world's leader in sales and distribution of this superb all
natural low
sodium choice. The fine gourmet quality of the all natural sea
salt is Kosher certified.
