What it is

Sea salt is salt harvested from evaporated seawater. It is produced by evaporating water from the sea, leaving behind salt crystals. The process can be done naturally through solar evaporation or mechanically.

Why it's used

Sea salt is primarily used to enhance the flavor of foods by providing a salty taste. It is also used as a preservative in some products. You can find it in a wide variety of foods, including snacks, baked goods, and processed meals.

Health notes

Sea salt is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is chemically similar to table salt, consisting mainly of sodium chloride. While sodium intake is a concern for blood pressure, sea salt itself is not specifically regulated beyond its GRAS status. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated salt and sodium compounds.

Allergen info

Sea salt is not a major allergen and does not contain gluten.
