What it is

Salt is a mineral compound, primarily sodium chloride (NaCl), found naturally in seawater and underground deposits. It is harvested through evaporation or mining and is a fundamental seasoning used worldwide. In food processing, it's often purified and sometimes fortified with iodine.

Why it's used

Salt is a primary flavor enhancer, making foods taste better and balancing other flavors. It also acts as a preservative by inhibiting microbial growth and can affect texture in products like baked goods and cured meats. It is found in a vast array of processed foods, from savory snacks and meals to bread and processed meats.

Health notes

The FDA considers salt (sodium chloride) to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) when used as intended. High sodium intake is linked by health organizations like the WHO to increased blood pressure and cardiovascular disease risk, especially in sensitive individuals. However, sodium is also an essential nutrient. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated sodium chloride, and it is widely used globally.

Allergen info

Salt is not one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
