Why is Merisal healthier for you?
The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends incorporating foods with potassium. Potassium helps counter the effects of sodium and may help lower blood pressure. Merisal combines potassium chloride with sodium chloride, reducing the levels of pure sodium chloride.
