Low Sodium Doesn't Mean Low Flavour

Dr. Salt pack, 15% low sodium salt

"Low sodium" often gets read as "low taste", usually because of past experience with sodium substitutes that left a bitter aftertaste. Dr. Salt was built to avoid exactly that trade-off.

Why households look for lower sodium

Dr. Salt is suited to anyone advised to moderate their everyday sodium intake, households managing blood pressure or simply eating more mindfully, without asking anyone to change how they cook.

15%

Less sodium than regular iodised salt

30 ppm

How Dr. Salt keeps the taste

Dr. Salt replaces a portion of sodium chloride with a mineral salt blend that tastes close to regular salt, so it's used exactly the way you'd use any table salt, pinch for pinch, without a separate recipe or ratio to remember.

A few tips for a smoother switch

  • Season in stages while cooking and taste as you go, the same habit that improves any dish
  • Lean on acid, like lemon or tamarind, and fresh herbs, both of which make food taste more seasoned without more salt
  • Keep using it exactly where you'd normally reach for salt; it isn't a special-occasion product

The bottom line

Dr. Salt exists for households who want to eat a little more mindfully without giving up the taste of real salt. Namak kam hi khaaye, par achha khaaye: eat less salt, but eat salt that's real.
