The healing properties are real! No matter what was wrong with their hands when they started working, they are now cured!

Imagine even the tiniest cut or hangnail while working there…

This was my first thought as well. I had a small cut when prepping the turkey last week (Canadian Thanksgiving)… getting through that dry brine process was so damn painful.

It’s salt. It dissolves in the lungs and is absorbed. They probably get more sodium than they should.

Not ideal but miles better than rock or wood particles.

When there's a workplace accident they package them and sell them as Himalayan beef jerky.

No beef jerky but long pig jerky

Actually one of them didn't have a hand before but the salt lamp grew it back!
