Hollow Salt Prepared Through Spray Drying with Alginate Enhances Salinity Perception to Reduce Sodium Intake by Qian Jiang, Jiayi Yan, Chen Song, Yunning Yang, Guangyuan Chen, Fanhua Kong, Jingfeng Yang, Shuang Song

“…Moreover, the conductivity monition revealed that the hollow salt exhibited a more rapid dissolution in water and its alginate component increased the adhesive retention of sodium ions on the tongue surface, which both effectively enhanced the sensory perception. Finally, as revealed by the sensory evaluation, the prepared hollow salt showed higher saltiness than that of original table salt and it could reduce sodium intake by 29%. …”
