Re: Colima salt - 5 years ago
Hello, What I know is that it is iodized and fluoridated to prevent an illness called goiter disease (Bocio) in spanish. They add the Iodine and flourid just before they put in the bag the salt. The Colima salt is considered one of the three best cooking salts in the world. So pretty safe to use. Saludos! Jupiterby Comala Host - La Manzanilla - Tenacatita - Boca de Iguanas

Re: Volcano Update? - 6 years ago
The Volcano has been shut down since Feb 2017. It is when it had its last activity. The clouds come in around 10:30pm and stay until 6:30pm aprox. We have been getting close to it almost every day and we just hear some rocks coming down in November. But no ash, just steam. The active volcano was covered in snow on Jan 1st. 2018 Will keep you posted! Best Regards, Jupiterby Comala Host - Colima - Comala
