Salt
Salt is the common culinary salt used worldwide to season and preserve foods; it appears in many varieties such as sea salt, kosher salt and specialty salts. It contains 100g of salt per 100g and provides essentially no calories or macronutrients when used in typical amounts. As an ingredient, Salt is valued for intensifying and balancing flavors rather than for nutrition — it is nearly pure sodium chloride and is used sparingly in recipes. Because it is purely a source of sodium, relying heavily on Salt can increase dietary sodium intake; many people reduce usage or swap in potassium-based low-sodium salts, herbs, or acids (lemon/vinegar) to maintain flavor with less sodium.
