So... is it just half full? Or is just it mostly chloride? ๐Ÿค”

[โ€“] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Potassium chloride is the other half. I mean, sure, if you need to limit your sodium intake, this is one way to do it, but maybe just put less salt in your food?

Use less salt! Use MSG! Food cocaine!

Fuy-yuh!

Does potassium chloride have a salty flavor, or is this product actually less salty tasting?

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJh9yTIBY48 for potassium chloride as well as the other alkaline metals.

Good product for when you're on furosemide, bad product for spironolactone.

As someone who naturally craves lots of salt spiro was rough. About 5 years of constant cravings for a level of salt most people around me couldnโ€™t handle

The fun part of that one is it's potassium sparing. So you start using this stuff while taking that medication you'll get hyperkalemia. Lasix, on the other hand, makes you piss out all your potassium.

Wait until you see "lite Vodka" which is just Vodka watered down to 40 proof and sold at the same price.

My wife bought that from a local distillery, she kept telling me "but it's low calories". It was such garbage.

Well that explains at least one of the divorces. Was that Butler or Kelly?

Would be cool to find out it's 50% sodium chloride and 50% chlorine.

Open the box to eternal peace.

50% sodium chloride and 50% potassium chloride

i've seen salt with high fructose corn syrup added to it... so technically less salt?

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

That is one product I would expect in an American supermarket. ..
