In the recent years, I noticed a lot of ads for different kind of salts but especially sea salt. For example, in my supermarket there are instant meals "refined with the natural taste of sea salt". Or in the spices shelf, there are salts which are "especially healthy for your health due to its [North Sea origin](https://goo.gl/maps/rCB41ndNczhda4Ut9)".

Are there truly significant differences between table and sea salt? If yes, how do they differ chemically, structurally or in taste and what are the effects of these aforementioned differences?
