PANSALT® FAQ Series: What are the advantages of using PANSALT®?

The advantages of using PANSALT^® are many. Its primary benefit is the reduction of Sodium, which also means a reduction in the risk of acquiring hypertension and its serious complications including strokes, heart attacks and kidney problems. 

A good dose of Magnesium found in PANSALT^® may be beneficial both in the excretion of excess or harmful Sodium as well as in the secretion and function of Insulin in the body. Magnesium is also found in green veggies, bran cereals and nuts and seeds. The lack of this essential mineral is strongly related to high blood pressure and diabetes. A good source of information on further benefits of adequate Magnesium intake is The Magnesium Factor by Dr. Mildred Seelig.

Potassium, is another mineral component of PANSALT^® which is helpful in getting rid of harmful Sodium in the body, thus contributing to lowered blood pressure. A good reference is The Magnesium Solution for High Blood Pressure by Dr. Jay S Cohen.

Other than Magnesium and Potassium, PANSALT^® also contains Lysine, an essential limiting amino acid required for making proteins in the body. Lysine does not naturally occur in the human body and is consumed from daily foods like those containing PANSALT^®.

Lastly, PANSALT^® offers Iodine which is key to the proper brain cell development of children as well as to their cognitive development. The deficiency of Iodine may lead to goiter problems.

PANSALT® FAQ Series: Why is common salt harmful to me?

Common salt is 98-100% Sodium Chloride. Our body needs only small amounts of Sodium to function properly. The WHO (World Health Organization) recommends a dietary salt intake of less than 5g per day due to its high Sodium content.

In the average Filipino diet, our salt intake goes up to as much as 10-15g per day. Our use of condiments like toyo, patis and bagoong adds even more to our Sodium intake. This leads to higher risks of developing high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, stomach cancer, osteoporosis and kidney disease, among others. 

You may wish to refer to The Salt Solution, Salt, Diet & Health, Salt Matters –consumer guides for further information on the harms of common salt.
