Healthy alternatives to sugar and salt

On average, the human body contains approximately 170 g of potassium. In contrast to sodium (table salt) and chloride, potassium is found almost exclusively inside the cells.

The ratio of potassium to sodium is normally 10:1 , but in everyday life this ratio is tilted due to the extremely high consumption of table salt. Yes, we need salt (sodium chloride) but in moderation and not in bulk! Modern humans consume an average of 7 to 12 grams of table salt (mostly through excessive consumption of industrial finished products, sausage, cheese, bread or canned goods).

Officially, however, an average salt requirement of 3 to 5 grams of table salt is considered sufficient for an average active person.

Use our potassium chloride as a salt substitute to balance your salt consumption. Additionally, we recommend finding out about the salt content of the products you eat.

The benefits of potassium:

• Increases nerve conductivity: Potassium contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
• Improved muscle function: Potassium contributes to normal muscle function.
• Regulates blood pressure: Potassium helps maintain normal blood pressure.

In the 1970s, the Japanese “discovered” the plant Stevia rebaudiana, from whose leaves over 100 different ingredients have been isolated. Glycosidically bound diterpenes, so-called steviol glycosides, are responsible for the sweetness of the plant. Steviol glycosides contain no calories. This means sweetness without regrets!

• Versatile: Stevia is suitable for all imaginable applications in products such as drinks, dairy products, ice cream, sweet and sour canned fruit and vegetables, jam, confectionery, desserts and much more
• Also suitable for baking and cooking: it is heat stable up to 200°C.
• Good for dental health: It is also non-cariogenic and therefore tooth-friendly.
