Globally, the average daily salt intake is 10.8g—more than twice the WHO’s recommended limit—leading to widespread health issues. In Singapore, 90% of residents consume nearly double the recommended sodium intake, contributing to prevalent health concerns like hypertension and dyslipidemia.
Reducing sodium intake is a cost-effective way to enhance public health. However, simply lowering salt content arbitrarily can result in an unacceptably bland taste and compromised flavor stability. Potassium chloride (KCl) is commonly used as a salt substitute, but it has a bitter aftertaste and poses potential health risks, particularly for individuals with kidney disease or those on specific medications.
This technology aims to reduce sodium intake with a natural rice umami extract, developed using advanced sodium reduction technology without MSG or alternatives(KCI). This innovative approach amplifies the salty taste sensation, and ensures the natural umami of rice is extracted to its fullest potential.
As a result, this technology not only enhances flavor delivery but also promotes healthier consumption by reducing sodium intake without compromising taste.
Two other natural salt alternatives are available:
The Low-Sodium Rice Salt is designed for both B2C and B2B markets, offering a wide range of applications across different industries.
B2C Applications :
B2B Applications :
Replacing regular salt with this technology will allow consumers to enjoy their food with full flavour and reduced sodium intake, unlike other sodium reduction alternatives like MSG or KCl.
