Databank

Salt

Halite (NaCl), commonly known as salt. A critical nutrient and a favorite flavor in human foodstuffs. Nearly four percent of the alien seawater is dissolved salt - far higher than the concentration in human blood. Living things (even on this world) cannot survive this level of salt in their bodies. As a result, organisms must spend energy pumping salt out of their bodies. Some Earth fish use a third of their metabolic energy to pump salt. A shortage of salt is equally dangerous. Hyponatremia causes hallucinations, seizure, coma and death (easily confused with other syndromes caused by exposure to this alien environment). Assessment: search for salt on sandy sea bottoms and around dead coral domes. Note: pools of salt-heavy brine may occur at the sea floor. Contact with this brine may cause seizures and death. Certain bacteria (halophiles) can thrive in these environments.
