'''Salt''', also known as '''[[Halite/Legends|halite]]''' and '''sodium chloride''',<ref name="wotc">{{WizardsCite|url=default.asp?x=starwars/article/sw20021003recovery|text=Making a Full ''Recovery''|int=Making a Full Recovery|archivedate=20091124204313}}</ref> was a common mineral in [[The galaxy/Legends|the galaxy]]. To most [[Species/Legends|species]], it was useful and harmless in small quantities. However, to the [[Arcona/Legends|Arcona]], it caused a powerful addiction that was very difficult to break. Many Arconas became addicted to salt after it was introduced to their world by offworlders. It caused their eyes to turn golden. Some notable salt-addicts were [[Hem Dazon/Legends|Hem Dazon]] of [[Tatooine/Legends|Tatooine]], and the [[Jedi Knight/Legends|Jedi Knight]] [[Izal Waz]].

Salt was known to be poisonous to [[Gotal/Legends|Gotals]]. In [[43 ABY]], [[Ben Skywalker]] failed to keep the Gotal [[Seek Ryontarr]] alive because the ''[[Jade Shadow]]'' lacked the saline-free drips necessary to intravenously hydrate the species.

Salt [[Mining/Legends|mines]] were found on a number of [[Planet/Legends|planets]], including [[Moorja/Legends|Moorja]]. Salt was also used on [[Dubrava/Legends|Dubrava]] to remove leeches that lived in the canals.

[[Human/Legends|Human]] tears contained salt.<ref>''[[The Truce at Bakura]]''</ref>
