Jacobsen Pure Sea Salt

Jacobsen Pure Sea Salt is a type of salt harvested from the Pacific Ocean. It is produced by evaporating seawater, a process that leaves behind natural minerals and trace elements.

Salt is primarily used to enhance flavor in foods. It can also act as a preservative, helping to extend the shelf life of certain products. It is commonly found in savory snacks, baked goods, and processed meats.

Salt, or sodium chloride, is recognized as safe by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends limiting sodium intake to reduce the risk of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease. JECFA has evaluated salt and established guidance on its use. While essential for bodily functions, excessive sodium intake is linked to health concerns, and dietary guidelines recommend moderation.
