I heard that high potassium and low sodium salt can control blood pressure. Now many people buy high potassium and low sodium salt cooking. Can high potassium and low sodium salt control blood pressure?

    There is a "high potassium and low sodium salt" on the market, which is characterized in that the main component of the salt is potassium ion instead of sodium ion. Potassium ions have a certain protective effect on the cardiovascular system, and moderate intake of potassium-rich foods has certain benefits in controlling blood pressure. It is a smart choice to change the "sodium salt" that raises blood pressure to the "potassium salt" that stabilizes blood pressure. However, some people do not like the taste and "flavor" of potassium salt, and some people complain that it is difficult to buy potassium salt... All these things make few people actually eat potassium salt. However, with the improvement of health needs and nutrition knowledge, the supply of potassium salts is becoming more and more abundant, we have reason to believe that people will choose more high potassium and low sodium salts.
