Product FAQ

1. What makes Fine Foods™ Lake Salt LIGHT so special?
Normal salt is made out of 97.5% SODIUM CHLORIDE. Our Fine Foods™ Lake Salt LIGHT is a unique low sodium mineral salt with 50% SODIUM CHLORIDE and another 50% of ESSENTIAL MINERALS. It is a blend comprising of pure and natural Lake Salt and other important mineral salts such as potassium, magnesium and calcium.
2. Why do we need a low sodium mineral balanced salt?
Through modernization, our diets have changed and are high in sodium and low in essential minerals. This trend will cause serious consequences to our health. Salts sold in the market (unless it is stated) have very high sodium content. By taking too much sodium, severe health complications and diseases will arise.

Fine Foods™ Lake Salt LIGHT is formulated with the aim to help in the reduction of sodium and increased essential mineral intake while preserving the best possible taste.
The incorporation of potassium, magnesium and calcium salts will reverse the effect of sodium induced Hypertension, and thus maintain healthy blood pressure levels. (Yang et al 2011; Houston et al 2008; Chang et al 2006)

3. What are the benefits of potassium, magnesium and calcium?

Potassium, magnesium and calcium are vital minerals that are found naturally in all food, but the main source is still from fruits and vegetables. However, we do not take sufficient fruits and vegetables in our daily diet, causing our bodies to lack these essential minerals that can help in guarding our blood pressure.

  • Maintaining and regulating blood pressure
  • Reducing the risk of kidney stones
  • Reducing the risk of heart-related problems
  • Reversing the effect of sodium on blood pressure
  • Maintaining normal muscular and neurology
  • Minimizing the risk of loss of bone mass (osteoporosis).

Potassium, magnesium and calcium work hand-in-hand to regulate muscle contraction and thereby maintain optimal blood pressure reading. (He & Gregor 2001)

PDV Salt (Normal)Pure dried vacuum (PDV) salt is the most common and cheapest salt available in the market. It is generally harvested from salt mines and goes through a refining process to remove all impurities and natural minerals except sodium chloride.
Iodized SaltIodized salt is fortified with iodine to reduce iodine deficiency disorders among the general population.
Sea SaltSea salt is harvested from the ocean or sea from different parts of the world. It is produced through the evaporation of seawater under the sun at the shoreline. Its purity depends on the cleanliness of the seawater and usually contains trace minerals, such as magnesium, calcium, iron, potassium, manganese and etc.
Rock SaltMountain-based salt. It may contain various trace minerals, depending on the source of the salt.
Lake SaltLake salt is a seasonal salt harvested from a clean and pure lake. Lake salt has no or minimal pollution. It is also organic and contains trace minerals, such as magnesium, calcium, iron, potassium, manganese and etc.
Low Sodium SaltA special formulated salt with a reduction in sodium and includes minerals such as potassium and magnesium, which work fantastically in the regulation of blood pressure.

Salt is the key source of sodium in our daily diet. A normal table salt contains more than 97% of sodium chloride. (1 gram of salt = 0.4 grams of sodium) ( Mohan & Campbell 2009).

Over the recent years, the world is moving towards a low-sodium and low-salt diet. Most professionals, including doctors, professors and dietitians, are convinced that Low sodium and enriched mineral diets (esp. Potassium, and Magnesium) are one of the most important modifiable risk factor for hypertension, heart disease, stroke and so on. Clinical studies and research have shown significant improvement of health by using low-sodium and potassium-rich salt. (Chang et al 2006; Yang et al 2011)

Sodium is required by our body in a very small quantity. A healthy adult needs approximately 0.5grams of sodium for daily body function (equivalent to 1.25g of salt). Please refer to the chart below for a greater understanding on this. (Mahan & Escott-Stump 2000)

USE LOW-SODIUM SALT IN YOUR HOUSEHOLD COOKING! Low sodium salt does not only come with reduced sodium but it is enriched with potassium and other minerals. Low sodium and high potassium intake will help in the prevention of hypertension and its complications at a significant level. (Yang et al 2011; Houston et al 2008)

We also highly recommend restaurants, hospitals and catering services to use low-sodium salt or Fine Foods™ Lake Salt LIGHT in the preparation of meals.

Yes. Our body’s daily tolerance level is about 2.3grams of sodium (equivalent to 5.8g of salt). Any amount exceeding this limit will burden our body and increase the risk of hypertension, kidney problem, heart disease and stroke. Please refer to the chart below for a clearer picture on this. (Mohan & Campbell 2009)

Studies have shown that excessive sodium intake in our daily diet is a major factor of HYPERTENSION, a.k.a. high blood pressure. The rise of blood pressure increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, kidney failure and other heart-related complications. Hypertension is one of the most significant underlying factors for the number 1 killer in Malaysia and the world, which falls under cardiovascular diseases (CVD). (WHO; He & Gregor 2008)
