- Abstract
Kitchen salt has an important role in forming the taste and texture of the food and in preserving its microbiological stability. Salt is one of the oldest preservatives used in food industry and salt preservation is considered a chemical process for food dehydration. Excessive kitchen salt intake is one of the most important factors significantly impairing human health. The usual salt intake, which means also intake of sodium, in the developed countries is high and exceeds the amounts necessary for normal functioning of the organism. In Croatia, it is estimated that the average daily salt intake is 12-16 g, while the recommendation of the World Health Organisation is <5 gram.
