Salt and Health examines salt replacement toxicity

The Spring issue of Salt and Health (pdf 318.77 kB) is published The misuse of the word “toxic” by media, some medical doctors and CSPI is examined within the context of long standing accepted definitions and parameters of the term. Concrete examples are illustrated in regards to replacing a natural substance, sodium chloride, with complex industrial chemicals such as: 5-ribonucleaotides, L-lysine, L-arginine, lactates, mycosent, MSG and trehalose. This newsletter leaves the reader to more intelligently ponder what health implications of such a broad-based replacement of salt with an arsenal of untested synthetic chemical products could possibly do to an unsuspecting population.
