Reddit reviews Nu Salt, 3-Ounce Shaker (12 Count)

Most of the formulations I've ever purchased are advertised as "salt lite" or "half salt", meaning that they are half potassium chloride and half sodium chloride.

I've tried the Nu-Salt or the Salt Substitute which is all potassium chloride and it tastes wrong to me. But that's just me. ;)

Full data on all the nutrient content.

I call this the 5-layered super half-moon omelet. It's super because it is very high in anti-oxidants, vitamins, and minerals. And just one can give you half the calories for the day, and over half the vitamins and minerals(I take one effervescent multivitamin pill every day so I have over 100% of all vitamins required; effervescent pills have almost 100% bio-availability unlike normal non-dissolving pills)). It is also super because:

• it is easy to make
  
  
• it is quick to make - under 6 min for both cooking and prepping
  
  
• it is inexpensive
  
  
• it contains no exotic, US-only ingredients
  
  Instructions:
  
  
• Beat two large eggs, add a pinch of cinnamon and iodized sea salt, then mix it some more.
  
  
• Lather the non-stick pan with butter or margarine, not oil. Pour the egg-mix into the pan.
  
  
• After 10 seconds add the first layer - cheese (you can layer half of it or full surface, as melted cheese becomes a part of the egg surface).
  
  
• Add other 4 layers on top of the first one in the following order: chicken/turkey salami(mine is enriched with red peppers), red onions (of all the onion types these have the highest anti-oxidant count), spinach, tomatoes.
  
  
• add Nu-salt - it's potassium, not salt.
  
  
• While you were doing all that, the eggs should already be done, so remove it from the heating surface and place a lid on the pan so the steam does its work for about 40sec.
  
  
• Put mayonnaise on top of the last layer.
  
  
• Fold it.
  
  P.S.
  
  It tastes delicious!
  
  The combo of cinnamon integrated into the eggs, enveloping cheese, the mayo, onions and tomatoes make it just right (spinach is undetectable taste-wise).

Have you looked at online retailers? I noticed that you can get it from Amazon Canada. But after factoring in shipping, it works out to $3.50 CAD per can, which seems kind of high. 36 ounces total.

Instead, you may want to try "lite salt," which is a blend of sodium and potassium. Here's 33 ounces of it for $15 and change. Most people find this more palatable than pure potassium chloride.

>I've also been advised potassium salt is very dangerous so I shouldn't be looking for it.

Only if you're taking medication that causes you to retain potassium, or a related health issue. Either way, get some blood tests from your doctor to figure out if you have any issues there, before taking supplements.

You can try taking sodium free salt. Just add it in water and stir. Something like this: http://www.amazon.com/Nu-Salt-3-Ounce-Shaker-Pack-12/dp/B000H1558E/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1397648537&sr=8-3&keywords=salt+substitute

Very easy way to increase your potassium intake.

I have an 80oz bottle that I fill with water + tsp himalayan pink salt + tsp No Salt + teaspoon Natural Calm powder (magnesium). I sip t/o the day and can tell I difference if I forget and get behind. I also take a B complex pill and calcium pill in the morning and a magnesium citrate capsule at bedtime. This formula has been working very well for me over the past couple months. No more palpitations and laser-focus at work and home. KCKO!

Electrolytes are sodium, potassium, and magnesium. When you keto (especially at the beginning) you are drinking a lot of water and peeing a lot, which can deplete your electrolytes. So an electrolyte supplement includes those things. I got NuSalt to sprinkle on foods because it has a lot of potassium which is my lowest one I think. I also ordered these electrolyte tablets that contain all three in small amounts, to carry with me for when I get dizzy/crampy. I had previously been drinking PoweradeZero which was ok, but kind of expensive, and didn't have that much of the minerals in it. Also full of fake sugar.

For detailed info I would highly recommend this segement of the FAQ from /r/keto http://www.reddit.com/r/keto/wiki/faq#wiki_what_is_.201Cketo_flu.201D_and_how_long_will_i_have_it.3F

I dont know about you, but I don't really like bananas all that much. Orange Juice has a fair amount of potassium, or you could do something like Nu-Salt which is potassium chloride instead of sodium chloride. I live by this stuff, since I live in Florida, and electrolyte depletion in summer is a fact of life. A bit of this on your eggs before you go riding in the morning, and I promise you'll be fine. I really like it on my post-ride burgers, steaks, whatever. Tastes the same as salt, but it's a lot more helpful.

Nah fuck bananas, 1/4 teaspoon of this has more potassium than a banana. Don't go overboard, just shake it once or twice over your food. I use it on my meet/eggs while they cook, popcorn, etc. I miss my soy sauce but I feel better.

Coconut water also has a ton of potassium. The idea is to get a balanced ratio of potassium:sodium, whereas unless you actively incorporate foods like mushrooms, oranges, bananas - the average diet is sodium heavy, especially if you don't cook your own food.

Stan Efferding talks about it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGdw1GQV_y8

Celery acts as a vasodialator and has a ton of fiber, both help bp. u/platewrecked recommends 3 stalks/day. I just chomp them while my food cooks.

Honestly, lisinopril is super cheap and very effective with no sides ime. Sometimes a tiny pill is way cheaper than the trial and error of natural remedies.

I ended up getting this [Magnesium] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BD0RT0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00) and I got [NuSalt] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000H1558E?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00) and they will be arriving tomorrow :)

Hey, I was going through the same thing. My solution that has been partially stated is nu-salt for potassium, Seasonello for sodium and iodine (It's sea salt with iodine), and Ultima Replenisher for the magnesium(It's just a pure electrolyte blend with 100mg of magnesium per serving). I use these because I cycle from water fasting to a keto during the week and all my electrolytes suffer unless you replenish them. I hope this helps and I highly recommend cycling water fasting and keto since fasting puts your body into ketosis. I watched an incredible video albeit a little long on water fasting by Dorian Wilson. (https://youtu.be/DghrZNUP5vo) GL with the diet.

Seasonello: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CV1OHSC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Nu-Salt: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000H1558E/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

One word: "NoSalt". If I add a little of that to my diet once in a while such such as adding it to eggs instead of salt, then I dont get any leg cramps at all.

Like everyone is saying, beef or chicken bouillon (cubes, powder, whatever) is the way to do it. I also usually had a fair amount of Nu-Salt for the potassium as well.

It sounds very weird at first, but let me tell you, drinking chicken broth out of a glass tastes pretty damn amazing.

I don't understand how they can't buy the right chemicals. Every grocery store in America sells the chemicals they use. It's KCl aka no-salt salt.

Here you go, a pack of 12 off amazon for <$20

I would recommend getting separate supplements. That one kind of takes a shotgun approach to each element. It also doesn't let you adjust each one as needed. Plus, Mg-oxide is a laxative.

I use these or this (probably cheaper locally) for K, and these for Mg.
For Na, just use plain salt, broth, etc. I don't worry about Calcium at all, and I don't think many others do either.

More important, learn to recognize when you need more. Na usually shows as the keto flu, K shows up as muscle cramps, and Mg shows up as a little bit of everything.
