Salt4Health
A salty taste enhancer that reduces salt intake without compromising flavor. Our product is a novel natural dipeptide suitable as a food additive, capable of significantly lowering the sodium content in foods and beverages. It directly supports global initiatives—such as those led by the WHO—aimed at reducing excessive salt consumption and lowering hypertension rates. Sensory panel evaluations confirm that it maintains full flavor even with up to 30% less sodium.
The dipeptide can be produced through sustainable fermentation processes using food industry residues, reinforcing a circular-economy approach.
In practical terms, this dipeptide can be added to a wide range of food and drink formulations to maintain palatability while lowering sodium levels. Its natural origin and the possibility of sourcing it from protein-rich materials fit well within circular-economy strategies, while fermentation-based production ensures scalability and consistency. Food manufacturers can use it to reformulate products to meet health guidelines, appeal to nutrition-conscious consumers, and contribute to reducing population-level hypertension linked to high salt consumption.
