As Leo pointed out, salt is salt.  NaCL.  Anything else is

I wouldn't think coarse salt is only NaCl.  There's probably other stuff
there that we need.  One thing I notice when I have some salt after a
long period without having any food is that it seems to act like a light
stimulant---the body likes it!  (Just like a chocolate bar after a long
period without any food.)

That's evidence, though I'm not sure Cindy Hamilton would approve it. :)

I asked Jill's artificially intelligent friend:
"While coarse salt is primarily composed of sodium chloride (NaCl), it
can also contain other minerals and impurities, depending on the
source and processing of the salt.
 
Here are some of the minerals and impurities that can be found in
coarse salt: calcium, magnesium, potassium, sulfate, trace minerals.
The specific composition of coarse salt can vary depending on the
source of the salt, such as: sea salt (magnesium, calcium, potassium),
rock salt (clay, sand, other minerals), Himalayan pink salt (iron
oxide, potassium, magnesium, calcium."
