- Q: Is Kala Namak safe for everyone to consume? A: Yes, Kala Namak is safe for most people, including those on vegan diets.

However, individuals with specific dietary restrictions should consult a healthcare professional if they have concerns.

Many people use it in their diets to help alleviate digestive issues, but individual experiences may vary. It's best to incorporate it gradually and observe how your body responds.
- Q: How should I store Kala Namak to maintain its quality? A: To maintain the quality and flavor of Kala Namak, store it in a cool, dry place in an airtight container.
