"It’s salty enough to use in place of table salt, though it’s substantially lower in sodium."

What's Wrong With Salt?

  • Salt makes food delicious. But, it's high in sodium.
  • High sodium intake increases your risk for high blood pressure and its complications, like heart disease and stroke (CDC.gov).
  • The average adult consumes 50% more sodium daily than recommended by the FDA.

Green Salt is a plant-based salt with 50% less sodium than salt.

It's better for your heart while still giving you the same salty taste.

Much More Than Just Salt

  • Delicious Salty and Umami flavor. In taste tests, equal portions of salt and Green Salt had the same saltiness. It also adds umami to make your food more savory.
  • Contains Chlorophyll, Vitamin B3, Potassium, and Magnesium. Green Salt's minerals and vitamins help blood pressure control and normal function of our immune and nervous systems.

Made From Salicornia, the Salty Superfood

  • Salicornia or Sea Asparagus is a vegetable that grows by the sea. It has a salty taste and succulent texture.
  • Salicornia's salty taste comes from its diverse mineral content.
  • It's a nutrient-rich superfood with demonstrated antioxidant and antihypertensive properties. Read more

Supports Sustainable Agriculture

  • In Baja California, we recycle saline lands by the coast to grow Salicornia.
  • These high salinity lands are infertile for most plants, but Salicornia thrives on them.
  • We irrigate our Salicornia with filtered sea water. This saves millions of liters of fresh water a year compared to conventional crops.

Protects Your Heart Health

  • Salicornia has shown protective effects against high blood pressure in scientific studies (Food and Function Journal 2015).
  • It's also demonstrated antioxidant and antidiabetic properties (Journal of Medicinal Food 2009).

Loved by Top Chefs

Green Salt is used in the kitchens of Michelin star chefs Drew Deckman and Javier Plascencia.

How do I use it?

  • Use Green Salt just like sea salt. It adds salty and umami goodness to any dish.
  • Vegetables are especially tasty with Green Salt!

How does it compare?

  • Other low-sodium salt substitutes contain potassium chloride which tastes bitter and can be harmful for those with kidney problems.
  • Green Salt is salty with no bitter aftertaste. Plus, its potassium content is safe for people with kidney disease* (10mg for every 1.5g).

Why is high blood pressure dangerous?

Hypertension (High blood pressure) makes the heart work too hard, and the high force of the blood flow can harm arteries and organs (such as the heart, kidneys, brain, and eyes).

High blood pressure can raise the risk of heart attack, heart failure, stroke, kidney disease, and blindness. In addition, blood pressure generally rises as you get older, so limiting your sodium intake becomes even more important each year. (FDA.gov 2021)
