I haven't actually needed to buy any salt for about 7 years.

Seriously, KCl is good for you.

I never add salt either. If the food isn't good enough tasting without salt, I shouldn't be eating it. That's my theory.

Maybe there is 30% less NA+ ions and propoartionally more CL- ions.

yes but something has to take its place. You can't have free ions floating around in a non-liquid state. This is why KCl is the best explanation.

Yeah, I never sprinkle anything with salt, as Mike said, there is enough as it is, actually way too much...

Either re-phrase it, or re-think it.

rats! You anticapted my response. I was going to say it is easy you just have to be under water.

And since unbonded chlorine is, IIRC, a highly poisonous gas, if I were you I'd stay away from that brand, or at least open it in a highly ventilated area with a gas mask on.

You can't have unbonded chlorine outside of solution. It forms diatomic chlorine, which is the poisonous gas.

That will get you to cut down on your salt intake. :gasmask:

Ming's just given me the official "shut_the_****_up_or_be_restricted" censorship warning, so this will likely be the last you hear from me.


However, I like the idea of adding potassium to the mix:

NaCl with 30% less sodium (and 55% more corrections)

Na+ + Cl- <---> NaCL
K+ + Cl- <---> KCl

x(Na) + y(Cl) + z(K) <---> 0.7(NaCl) + 0.3(KCl)


x = 1 - y - z
x - 0.3 = 0.7 - z

[0.7(Na) + 1.0(Cl) + 0.3(K) <---> 0.7(NaCl) + 0.3(KCl)]
