Salt plays an important role in food products in terms of functional properties, sensory attributes, and food preservation, but high levels of sodium have been linked to health problems such as hypertension and cardiovascular disease. The findings of a study in the June 2015 issue of the Journal of Food Science, published by the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) could potentially be used to meet the high demand for products that are low in sodium with favorable sensory qualities.
