AlsoSalt, the First Palatable Salt Substitute
A true scientific breakthrough, AlsoSalt offers the taste of salt without the adverse health risks of sodium. It is completely sodium free without the bitter aftertaste other salt substitutes have. You can cook and bake with AlsoSalt or sprinkle it over food. Plus, it has the added dietary benefit of two nutrients, potassium and L-lysine, which are essential to good health.
(PRWEB) June 17, 2005 -- Scientists have searched for years for a palatable
alternative to salt. While the food industry has found acceptable substitutes
for sugar, fat, and other ingredients, it has been unsuccessful in finding one
for salt despite two decades of effort. Until now, the only known substitute for
salt has been potassium chloride. While it has a salty flavor, it leaves a
bitter aftertaste that is best described as awful. “We have found a way to keep
the salty flavor of the potassium chloride while masking the metallic taste,”
states Joan Warren of AlsoSalt “and we do it naturally.” AlsoSalt holds patents
worldwide.
Doctors and dietitians across the United States are
distributing sample packets of AlsoSalt to their patients on a low sodium diet.
AlsoSalt not only helps people reduce sodium in their diet while enjoying the
taste of salt, it provides nutrients that are essential to good health. Its two
main ingredients are potassium chloride and L-lysine monohydrochloride.
Concerned with the apparent link between high sodium intake and high
blood pressure and other health conditions, physicians often prescribe a low or
no sodium diet. Too much sodium causes the body to retain water, which can hype
the pressure in the arteries. High blood pressure is the leading cause of
strokes and a major factor in heart disease. Rebalancing sodium intake with
potassium can help offset this dangerous effect by dampening the impact of
sodium and lowering blood pressure.
