Potassium-Chloride Salt Substitute (e.g., LoSalt)

Potassium-Chloride Salt Substitute (e.g., LoSalt) is a common table salt alternative made primarily from potassium chloride and used to reduce sodium in cooking and at the table. It is marketed and used like regular salt, including in many cuisines and home kitchens, and is sold under brand names such as LoSalt or as reduced‑sodium sea salt blends. Nutritionally, Potassium-Chloride Salt Substitute (e.g., LoSalt) supplies a very high amount of potassium — 52400mg per 100g — instead of the sodium found in regular salt, and it contributes negligible calories, protein, fat or fiber. Because it is used in small amounts, its macronutrient profile is generally unimportant compared with its mineral content. In health terms, it can be helpful for people trying to lower sodium intake and manage blood pressure, but it should be used with caution by those with kidney disease or anyone taking potassium‑sparing medications, since excess potassium may be harmful in those situations.Read more
