I'm not SO good with salt but iodized salt is better for you than non iodized salt.

Iodine has been added to refined table salt for a good many years to counteract the effects of iodine deficient diets. Its absence can cause problems including goiter and stunted growth.

Iodized salt, therefore, contains minute traces of iodide or iodate compounds that are easily metabolized by the body. Non-iodized salt does not have these compounds added (although they might be present naturally).

Is saltwater pools iodized?

Saltwater pools typically use sodium chloride (table salt) to generate chlorine through a saltwater chlorinator, but this salt is usually not iodized. Iodized salt contains added iodine to prevent iodine deficiency, which is not necessary for pool sanitation. Therefore, while the salt in saltwater pools is essential for maintaining water quality, it is generally non-iodized.
