Cutting Salt, Not Flavor: Salt Substitutes Prove Effective in New Study
Salt substitutes present a healthy alternative for reducing salt intake, decreasing the risk of hypertension without increasing low blood pressure episodes, according to a new study. Switching out regular salt for a salt substitute can lower the incidence of high blood pressure in the elderly wit
This study sought to assess the effects of a salt substitute (62.5% NaCl, 25% KCl, and 12.5% flavorings) on incidence of hypertension and hypotension among older adults with normal blood pressure.

Don't forget MSG! It gets a bad image, but is Delicious and NOT poison.
EDIT: shit, what a terrible typo. that was not meant to be funny/sarcasm - it was meant to be literal, that MSG is delicious and basically safe.
Sorry..
It gets a bad image, but is poison?
ugh... terrible typo that happens all the time when i'm typing, my fingers constantly skip "not" when I say it in my head.
How is it poison? I've read that your body metabolizes msg better than salt, and msg is more potent meaning you can use less salt if you add a tiny bit of msg.
Pretty sure it's a typo, since it's a self contradicting statement
yes, exactly... thank you. spammed replies to everyone because I cant let things go

That makes a lot more sense!
It especially put it on chips that have no flavor - or when the chips are only lightly salted.
Works wonders!
