What it is

Wheat is a cereal grain, typically processed into flour. Salt, or sodium chloride, is a mineral extracted from seawater or underground deposits. These two fundamental ingredients are often combined in food products.

Why it's used

Wheat provides structure and carbohydrates in many foods, while salt enhances flavor and acts as a preservative. They are frequently found together in seasoning mixes, sauces, and various baked and processed foods.

Health notes

Wheat is identified by the FDA as one of the nine major food allergens and contains gluten, which can cause reactions in individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. The FDA recognizes salt (sodium chloride) as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). High intake of sodium is linked to increased blood pressure. The FDA Daily Value for sodium is 2,300 mg per day. JECFA has evaluated salt and did not set a numeric limit (ADI not specified) because it is an essential nutrient.

Allergen info

Wheat is a major allergen and contains gluten. Salt is not a major allergen.
