RE: I have given up1 Aug 2019 09:59
FYI guys, when I saw the tate and lyle effort I was concerned so emailed the company. I received a reply almost immediately from the man himself which I assume he won't mind me sharing here:
Hi *****,
I hope you are doing great. Thank you for reaching out. I totally understand your concern.
It was my concern also when I joined the company. But we learned a few things that changed that concern into optimism.
Soda-Lo had issues to scale production and to be used in manufacturing facilities. Due to the particle size and low weight, it was very difficult to achieve the right application level into snacks and other products (basically the salt will evaporate and make a cloud of salt in the production line). We, on the other hand, use a higher level of Maltodextrin as an agent to give weight to the particles so we can apply the salt correctly.
Also, our salt particles are smaller which gives you more saltiness.
If they decide to increase the agent (like Maltodextrin or Arabic Gum) to increase particle weight they will immediately infringe our patent. So we are protected.
Please feel free to reach to me if you want to talk further.
Thanks,
Victor Hugo Manzanilla

Firstly, very happy that he got back to me so fast. Most AIM co's comms are awful as they generally remain aloof to PI concerns. Secondly, it appears that if anything, tatee and lyle will be helping get the word out about the benefits of low sodium salt, which can only help Salarius as the superior product on the market.
I've topped up today anyway. GLA.
