It is not a salt substitute but a balanced, pleasant tasting condiment. Plaque reduces the size of the arteries, making it more difficult for the blood to flow through them properly. It reduces their elasticity. High blood pressure can result, and therefore the heart must work harder to pump our blood. Eventually, the heart wears out and serious health problems arise.
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the Western World.
Laboratory tests have shown that both table salt and regular salt substitutes contribute heavily to the build-up of plaque in the arteries. Regular table salt contains sodium chloride and as many as forty other ingredients such as acids, sugar, silicates for flowing characteristics and others. Commercial salt substitutes usually contain potassium chloride plus the same additional ingredients contained in table salt. When people develop arterial plaque or when high blood pressure develops, the first thing their doctors tell them is to cut down their salt intake. Some of the negative effects of both sodium and chloride are balanced by a unique formula of Magnesium and Sulfur.
