Description

Morton's Lite Salt is a low-sodium salt specially designed for those who wish to reduce their sodium intake without sacrificing flavor in their meals. It is a mixture of common salt with potassium, which allows for a significant reduction of sodium in each serving.

This product originates from the United States and is very popular in healthy cooking and controlled diets for people with hypertension or cardiovascular problems.

Among its main properties, its low sodium content stands out, which helps control blood pressure and maintain a proper electrolyte balance in the body thanks to the potassium content. Furthermore, its use allows for seasoning food similarly to common salt, making it easier to adapt to a low-sodium lifestyle.

In Latin America, Morton's Lite Salt may have different names depending on the country, although it is generally known as low-sodium salt or light salt. It is also commonly referred to as reduced-sodium salt or simply potassium salt.

This ingredient is ideal for adding a touch of flavor to soups, stews, salads, and any recipe where salt is traditionally used, providing a healthier option without losing the characteristic taste.
