Low Sodium Healthy Salt by Dry Methods

Abstract

Table salt that meets Indonesian National Standards (SNI) have a high sodium content of around 60% so that it is not suitable for consumption by people with hypertension. The reduction in the size of NaCl and KCl salts is carried out in a range of 30; 40; 50; 60 Mesh and the mass ratio of NaCl and KCl is provided at 1: 3; 1: 2; 1: 1; 2: 1; 3: 1. The results showed that there was a decrease in Na concentration in table salt products. The product composition is carried out with AAS and XRF analysis. Products that approach SNI 2016 salt diet is at a particle size of 40 mesh with a mass ratio of 1: 3 where the NaCl content is 54.40 % and the KCl content is 40.33 %.
