Why Salt is avoided in certain Hindu fasts

Hindu traditions restrict common salt during fasts like Navratri and Ekadashi for spiritual discipline and purification. Regular salt is deemed tamasic, hindering spiritual connection, while natural rock salt (sendha namak) is permitted. Abstaining from salt aids detoxification, recalibrates taste buds, and strengthens willpower, fostering a deeper connection with the divine and cosmic energies.
