Black salt is also known as kala namak. It is a special type of Indian mineral salt with a distinctive / sulphurous flavor. Black salt or Kala Namak is not black, but rather a reddish gray, due to the presence of trace elements and iron. It is not interchangeable with sea salt or table salt because of its distinct flavor.

It is also a regenerator while facilitating digestion and improving eyesight. It is said that it facilitates digestion and softens the intestine
