Atacama Ancient Salt is a 100% natural sea salt, harvested from the mystical salt plains beneath Chile's Atacama Desert-one of the driest and oldest deserts on Earth. This salt is a remnant of an ancient underground sea that dried up millions of years ago, leaving behind a pristine mineral deposit-an extraordinary gift from nature and time.
This innovative salt naturally contains 35% less sodium and approximately 15% more potassium compared to regular table salt. Unlike conventional salt blends - which can separate over time and often leave a metallic aftertaste - Atacama Ancient Salt consists of a single, uniform mineral crystal with a stable composition. This ensures even seasoning, a clean and smooth salt flavor, and no compromise in taste or functionality.
Key Features:
- 35% less sodium than standard table salt
- Approximately 15% natural potassium content
- Clean sea salt flavor with no metallic aftertaste
- 1:1 substitution for regular salt-no changes in recipes or measurements
- Free from additives, anti-caking agents, and GMOs
- Suitable for vegans, diabetics, and those on restricted diets
Health Benefits:
High Blood Pressure (Hypertension):
Atacama Ancient Salt is a smart choice for individuals with elevated blood pressure. The reduced sodium content helps lower the risk of hypertension and cardiovascular issues, while the naturally occurring potassium supports sodium excretion and contributes to heart rhythm regulation.
Cardiovascular Support:
Potassium is an essential electrolyte for heart muscle function and maintaining a steady heartbeat. A balanced sodium-to-potassium ratio is critical for preventing heart disease and stroke.
For a Healthy Lifestyle and Weight Control:
Ideal for those pursuing a health-conscious lifestyle. Reducing sodium is a core component of balanced nutrition and may help decrease water retention in the body.
For Athletes and Active Individuals:
During intense physical activity, the body loses electrolytes-especially potassium-through sweat. Atacama Ancient Salt helps restore electrolyte balance, supports muscle function, and prevents cramps, aiding in post-workout recovery.
In Cases of Potassium Deficiency:
Low potassium levels can lead to fatigue, muscle weakness, and constipation. Including Atacama Ancient Salt in the daily diet contributes to maintaining healthy potassium intake.
Ingredients:
100% Natural Sea Salt.
Naturally contains approximately 65% sodium chloride and 30% potassium chloride.
Free from impurities and additives!
