A superb American influencer in the medical field has been recommending Baja Gold salt as well as Celtic Salt.
As purveyors of Celtic Salt at NOTB we set out to do a quick comparison to ensure we are recommending and providing only the very best.

The higher moisture content of Celtic salt means that by volume, anyone taking is is actually consuming less sodium per teaspoon compared to Baja Gold, which could be relevant if you're monitoring sodium intake.
Celtic Sea Salt:
Hand Harvested from the coastal waters of Brittany, France
Light greyish color due to clay and minerals in the harvesting ponds
Moist texture with approximately 13-14% residual moisture
Contains approximately 33 trace minerals
The mineral profile includes magnesium, calcium, potassium amongst 82 others
Less sodium by volume compared to regular table salt due to moisture content
Baja Gold Sea Salt:
Harvested from the Sea of Cortez (Gulf of California) in Mexico
Generally has a whiter color than Celtic salt
Typically has a drier texture than Celtic salt
Contains similar trace minerals but in different proportions - with less of the key elements like Magnesium.
Often less expensive than Celtic salt (if you live in the USA)
Celtic salt has advantages over Baja Gold, particularly in terms of higher trace mineral content (especially magnesium, calcium, and silicon) and lower sodium concentration by volume due to its moisture content.
For those specifically looking to maximise trace mineral intake from their salt while potentially reducing sodium levels slightly, Celtic salt would indeed be the better choice.
For those living in the USA, if the price for a premium salt is an issue, Baja Gold would be more economical.
