Medicinal cure all salt, from Alviso
‘The All-Salt process harvests two popular commodities, sea salt and recycled pharmaceuticals from water treatment plants’
The town of Alviso is located at the bottom of San Francisco Bay. It’s home to a funky old restaurant called Vahl’s, the headquarters for TiVo and salt flats contaminated by pharmaceuticals that manage to survive treatment at the local sewage facility.
In theory, Alviso-harvested All-Salt should cure just about everything, since it contains ‘valuable drug compounds . . . from antibiotics to antidepressants,’ the building blocks of all the wonderful prescriptions we see advertised on tee vee each and every night.

And
Should point out, other salts harvested in the South Bay – such as those sourced by Cargill – contain pretty much the same post-pharmaceutical ingredients as All-Salt.
