Chaitra Navratri is a nine-day Hindu celebration in spring that focuses on the worship of Goddess Durga and her nine avatars. It is a period of spiritual contemplation, fasting, and eating sattvic foods that are natural and pure. As devotees observe a satvik diet, choosing the right ingredients becomes necessary for sustaining energy levels and overall well-being. One such essential ingredient is Sendha Namak, or rock salt, which is not just a permissible fasting salt but also a source of essential minerals.
Here is why Sendha Namak is the right choice for your Chaitra Navratri fast:

1. Natural source of essential minerals
Sendha Namak contains trace minerals which makes it an ideal choice for sattvic eating during Navratri. Aashirvaad Himalayan Pink Salt has natural minerals like calcium and magnesium, and thus is a great option for fasting as it assists in fulfilling the body’s mineral requirements during this period.
2. Gentle on Digestion
Navratri fasting encourages the intake of foods that help digestion and keep the gut healthy. Whole grains, fruits, and vegetables form a significant part of the fibre content in the Navratri diet. Such food is easy to digest. Besides, they tend to make you feel full and avoid cravings for longer during the fast.
3. Adds Natural Flavour
Fasting meals often rely on a limited set of ingredients, such as kuttu, sabudana, rajgira and makhana. While these foods are rich in nutrition, they can sometimes feel bland without the right seasoning. Sendha Namak provides a gentle, earthy flavour to Navratri fasting preparations, enriching the taste of sattvic food.
4. Free from Preservatives and Additives
Navratri is an occasion where most devotees avoid exposure to preservatives and additives. Aashirvaad Himalayan Pink Salt comes with the assurance of “No added colours” and is naturally pink. It fits well with the festival’s theme of purity and naturalness.
This Chaitra Navratri, embrace the goodness of pink salt (Sendha Namak), the pure form of salt that aligns with the sacred tradition of fasting. Whether you are observing a fast or simply looking for an alternative, switch to Sendha Namak and make your meals wholesome, nourishing, and spiritually fulfilling!
