MARKET DYNAMICS

Increasing Health Consciousness Propels Demand for Low-Sodium Alternatives

lobal shift toward healthier lifestyles has significantly accelerated demand for salt substitutes as consumers become more aware of hypertension risks linked to high sodium intake. Cardiovascular diseases account for 32% of global deaths annually, creating urgent demand for dietary modifications. Since processed foods contribute nearly 75% of daily sodium consumption in developed countries, food manufacturers are rapidly reformulating products with potassium chloride, magnesium sulfate, and other mineral-based alternatives.
