Diet salt contg potassium ions - and sodium or potassium saccharinate, sodium cyclamate, saccharose, glucose, lactose, mannitol or sorbitol

摘要

Diet salt, in which K is used for =50 wt. % of equiv. wt. of cations, contains Na saccharinate, K saccharinate, Na cyclamate, saccharose, glucose, lactose, mannitol, sorbitol or a mixt. of one or more of these sweet-tasting water-soluble sweeteners in such an amount, w.r.t. 100 pts. wt. K, that their sweetening power corresponds to sweetening power of 7.5-100 (70) pts. wt. saccharose. The diet salt is used to improve K-level by oral intake and to replace NaCl in saltless diets. Unpleasant after-taste of K ions is masked and replaced by taste similar to that of cooking salt while diet requirements are not impaired.
