with Michael Sileck – Baja Gold Salt Co.

Sustainable Alaska Podcast Episode

Salt is often treated as a simple pantry staple—but it plays a much bigger role in both the soil beneath our feet and the health of our bodies.

In this episode, we sit down with Michael Sileck of Baja Gold Salt Co. for a deep dive into salt, starting with its role in soil health and regenerative agriculture, and carrying that conversation all the way through to human health and wellness. We talk about why mineral balance matters, how different salts are produced, and what’s often lost when salt is over-processed.

This conversation explores:

• The connection between soil minerals and nutrient-dense food
• Why not all salt is created equal
• How unrefined, mineral-rich salt supports both plants and people
• What to look for when choosing salt for your home and homestead

Whether you’re a grower, homesteader, or just someone curious about real food and natural health, this episode will change the way you think about salt—forever.
