What Is Functional Salt?

Functional Salt is salt designed to do more than season food. It’s intentionally formulated to support the body’s balance -- not just add flavor.

For generations, salt has been treated as a single purpose ingredient. Functional Salt reflects a more modern understanding: that everyday foods can be designed with purpose, not just taste. 

Why Functional Salt Matters

Most conversations about electrolytes focus on drinks and supplements -- moments of exertion or dehydration. But most sodium and potassium intake comes from food we eat every day.

Functional salt brings that same logic into everyday meals -- addressing balance at the source, not as an add-on.

When designed intentionally, functional salt can support everyday balance --  including hydration and recovery -- as part of normal eating.

Functional Salt in Practice

Functional Salt maintains the familiar taste and utility of salt, while being thoughtfully designed to support balance as part of normal eating.

It’s not about restriction or replacement.

It’s about improving a default ingredient that people already use.

What Functional Salt Is -- and Isn’t

Functional Salt isn’t about adding trendy ingredients or turning salt into a supplement.

It’s about thoughtful formulation -- preserving the role salt plays in food, while designing it to better support the body as part of everyday meals.

One Expression of Functional Salt

My SUPER SALT 75:25 Precision Formula is one example of a functional salt — designed to deliver real salty flavor while supporting a more balanced potassium-to-sodium profile for everyday use.

Looking Ahead

As our understanding of nutrition continues to evolve, so will the way everyday ingredients are designed. Functional Salt reflects a broader shift toward improving the foods we already rely on -- thoughtfully, transparently, and with purpose. It’s not a trend to chase, but a category that will mature as expectations for food do.
