Out with the pink, in with the white (6)

No, salt does not energize the body or “internal state.” That is a bunch of new age mumbo-jumbo. 
While Jillian doesn't poo-poo CSS altogether she suggests using only PHS.

Those of you coming into my world with a lot of knowledge,,, just chill.” IOWs forget everything you have learned, leave your critical thinking skills at the door, and just do as Jillian says. No questions asked just drink the juice.

Just no Jillian – these people do not have knowledge. They're desperate and will latch on to anything that appears to offer them hope.
 
Concerning Jillian's claim about heart health and consumption of salt.  Scott Gavura sums it up well. 

There is reasonable population-level data linking higher levels of salt consumption with higher blood pressure. From a population perspective, interventions that dramatically lower salt intake result in lower blood pressure. Not everyone responds in the same way — many people with normal blood pressure can regularly consume a high salt load without any apparent change in blood pressure. But not everyone, and not forever. Salt sensitivity seems to increase with age and is more pronounced in some ethnic groups, as well as in those with salt-sensitive conditions such as kidney disease. And chronic high levels of salt consumption may be associated with the subsequent emergence of hypertension. There may be additional effects, unrelated to blood pressure, too. However, the causality between salt consumption, and all of these negative effects, is less clear.

As does Dr. Harriet Hall.

High blood pressure is a known risk factor for heart attacks and strokes. Numerous studies have shown a correlation between salt intake and blood pressure, but the correlation between salt intake and cardiovascular outcomes like stroke and death has not been so clearly established. The large INTERSALT study found a modest association between higher levels of sodium intake and higher blood pressure. Some systematic reviews of the literature have confirmed that association, others have not. A 2013 review in the British Medical Journal found that lower sodium intake was correlated not only with a lower risk of hypertension but also with a lower risk of stroke and fatal coronary heart disease. Prospective cohort studies have shown inconsistent associations between sodium intake and cardiac risk.
Hall continues, 
 
[l]arger studies were needed to settle the issue.” Which she discusses three and concludes:  

None of this really sheds any light on what we should do as individuals. Should we continue asking “pass the salt?” Should we abstain from adding salt at the table? Should we read labels and monitor the total amount of salt in our diet? Should we aim for 3–5 g a day? 

These studies found associations, but they couldn’t determine causes, and they did not even attempt to measure what would happen if people changed the amount of sodium and potassium in their diets. If anything, they suggest that existing guidelines for salt restriction for the general population may be too extreme.

They also suggest that “moderation in all things” and “eat your vegetables” are still good advice. 

Sorry for the redundancy, but it is important to realize that Jillian has no fucking clue as to what she speaks to. Stating the medical community is over reacting or making broad generalized claims is foolish.

Also notice when she wants to criticize established medicine she always starts with the holistic industry. She then lumps established medicine into the same boat.

While I agree that PHS is not toxic, Jilian may want to look at her fellow holistic practitioners for blame; two of which she used to follow and pander their shit. 
You see Food Babe, Mark Hyman, and Mercola all have a history of pandering what is known as the Toxin Gambit; specifically in regards to vaccines.


I’m actually going to let Dr. Mercola debunk himself in this article. We’ll simply present the ingredients he claims are in his salt, along with his own “research” on those same elements. The truth of the matter is, Mercola unequivocally states that his own product is full of poisonous elements,,,
,,,
So there you have it. Ten elements Dr. Mercola purports to be highly toxic, even in minute doses, but all found in his “healthy” Himalayan salt.  There are far more examples, but let’s not beat a dead horse.  If the trace elements are there in sufficient quantities to provide the claimed benefits, then they certainly exist in amounts sufficient to be the poisons Mercola warns about.  Especially when he’s making risible claims such as evacuating entire buildings because of a mercury spill the size of a tooth filling. (Internal citations removed)


So the misnomers are coming from your own people. And yes, by definition Jillian is a holistic practitioner. 
And here it is, we knew it was coming.
And her response to why the change. 
 
A revelation,,, oooh! So to borrow from Thomas Paine, Revelation when applied to religion, means something communicated immediately from God [a higher power] to man. It is revelation to the first person only, and hearsay to every other, and, consequently, they are not obliged to believe it. It is a contradiction in terms and ideas to call anything a revelation
that comes to us at second hand, either verbally or in writing. Revelation is necessarily limited to the first communication.”

Remember this is a woman who believes her revelations are absolute and she has actively received messages from a higher power

 
She's evolving,,, ooh!

Uh,,, what does one's political or philosophical ideologies have to do with drinking caca-water?

Ah,,, all because of salt,,, the same mineral found in all other salts. 'Cepting this one is pink,,, Got it!!

A wee bit of foreshadow (like y'all don't know this). Jillian speaks of looping she sees in other people stuck in the matrix,,, has she listened to herself or read anything she has posted over the last 3 years?

“Why aren't YOU evolving? Why aren't YOU progressing? What's wrong with YOU? What are YOU doing or not doing?”

Jilly juice will fix all that, “PHS is the shit man.”

I didn't realize being against child slave labor was political snobbery. As I noted in a previous post regarding her boot strap mentality toward working conditions in the Pakistan mine - Conditions at the mine are terrible, taking advantage of child labor.

Sorry darling, that aint propaganda. That is cold hard reality.

Anywho,,,

The difference in sodium content between various salts is not particularly relevant considering the amount of salt suggested in Jillian's recipe. Regardless of whether one uses CSS or PHS, the amount demanded still excedes the recommended amount a person should consume.

Again, salt is not and energizing force in the sense Jillian tries to imply. As noted before our bodies are not batteries nor do we generate power as if an electical power plant. (Realize that Jillian mixes new age mumbo-jumbo into the mix, so it is difficult to discern exactly what she means by “energizing force.” )

Yes, sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, have a specific electrical charge. Almost all of our cells can use these charged elements to produce electrical impulses. No, we can not power a city grid; our bodies operate on a micro level

What's obvious is Jillian can not explain herself and just tells her listeners to just do PHS.  A simple graphic would have gone a long way to explaining this point. 
 Instead we get these two gems,

“If you're not doing the PHS, you're on a trajectory of death.”

Bullshit, JJ has the potential to kill!

We are totally intellectualizing health.”

As one should. There is nothing wrong with being an informed consumer. This is a woman who has admitted her research is all in her head
She makes claims she can not “substantiate”. IOWs she does not understand the rigors of the scientific method.
But yet tells her followers, if you disagree with me I will block you.
 
Ancestry coded? What does that even mean? Note the video is a repost of the groundhog day looping video from a few days prior.
Two comments that caught my eye. In the first one Jillian demonstrates she has no critical thinking skills.
 
To an assertion of glass in table salt she responds,Possibly but there's no way to know for sure.” Seven seconds on Google and I have this answer.

Did you know that the FDA requires that all US table salt be at least 97.5% pure sodium chloride, and it is usually much purer? We can find out for ourselves. Let’s do a little experiment. Glass and sand don’t dissolve in water. Put some table salt in a glass of water. The salt will dissolve and any impurities will sink to the bottom and form a visible sediment.
,,,
How could sand and glass in the diet get into the arteries and scratch them? Aren’t insoluble materials indigestible? Don’t they pass through the digestive system and end up in the toilet?

Then we have this kiss-ass bit of verbiage, Remeber a few days prior Jillian post a video tell her minions to get off CSS and only use PHS.
