Abstract
Salt is one of the most widely used condiments in the home cooking and the food industry. It not only contains an essential micronutrient for human beings (sodium), but also is an important and safe preservative in food processing sector. Excessive salt intake is linked to the high prevalence of hypertension and other related diseases such as cardiovascular diseases and stroke. A reduction in salt intake across the whole population will be conducive to improvements in public health. However, reducing the salt content in foods is not a simple but a challenging task, since salt not only impacts the flavor and texture of the final products, but also plays an important role in processing and preservation of foods. The present review introduced the salt reduction actions around the world and different approaches for sodium reduction in foods, and further summarized emerging technologies that utilized in salt reduction in foods.
期刊介绍:
Interciencia is the monthly multidisciplinary publication of the INTERCIENCIA Association. It is dedicated to stimulate scientific research, its humanitarian use and the study of its social context, specially in Latin America and the Caribbean and to promote communication between the scientific and technological communities of the Americas.
Interciencia has been published uninterruptedly since 1976. Its Founding Director, Marcel Roche (endocrinologist and sociologist of science) was editor until 2008, and thereafter Miguel Laufer (neurobiologist) has been in charge. It has been included since 1978 in the Science Citation Index and other international indexes, and since 2008 it maintains an open access electronic version with material from 2005 onwards.
The priority areas of the journal, without exclusion of other areas, are Agronomy, Arid Lands, Food and Nutrition, Biotechnology, Ecology and Environment, Energy, Innovation and Technology Transfer, Marine Resources, Non-renewable Resources, Science Education, Science Policy, Study and Sociology of Science, and Tropical Forests.
Interciencia publishes in Spanish, Portuguese and English research and review articles, communications and essays, all of which are subjected to peer review. Additionally, it includes non-refereed sections such as Editorial, Letters to the Editor, Open Town Hall, Book Reviews and Upcoming Events.
All the material submitted to the journal for publication and accepted by the Editorial Committee in view of its quality and pertinence is subjected to review by peer specialists in the corresponding fields of knowledge. Neither the INTERCIENCIA Association, nor the journal or the institutions to which the authors belong carry responsibility for the contents. Signing authors are responsible for the material published under their names.
