《吳希素營養師專欄》應選擇海鹽還是食鹽
吳希素註冊營養師
Sea Salt or Table Salt?
American Heart Association did a survey on 1,000 people nationwide about their thoughts on sodium and heart health. 61% believed that sea salt has lower sodium content than table salt.
This is probably because Sea salt is marketed as a health food and it's "natural" nature gave people the wrong impression.
In fact, sea salt and table salt are very similar chemically. They both contain the same amount of sodium chloride by weight, which means they contribute equally to total sodium consumption and have the same effect on blood pressure.
However, Sea salt is made from evaporated seawater, with less processing than Table salt which comes from underground. Therefore, Sea salt retains most of its minerals content, which some cooks say it has a better flavor.

應選擇海鹽還是食鹽?
美國心臟協會對1000個不同種族的人進行了問卷調查，收集他們對於心臟健康與鈉質的想法與意見。當中61％的人認為海鹽比食鹽含有較低的鈉含量。
這可能是因為海鹽被定義為健康食品，由於它的“天然”性質讓人有錯誤的印象。
事實上，海鹽和食鹽的化學構造非常相似。它們都含有相同重量的氯化鈉，這意味著海鹽和食鹽含有同等數量的鈉質，並且對血壓都有相同的影響。
然而，海鹽是由海水蒸發而成，又食鹽則來自地底下，所以海鹽比食鹽更少經過工業處理。因此，海鹽保留了大部分礦物質，正因如此，海鹽於烹調時能使食物具有風味。
