Abstract
The invention provides a culinary seasoning composition. The composition comprises a saline component and a trace element component, the trace element component itself comprising at least one compound of a trace element selected from zinc, copper, manganese, chromium, selenium or molybdenum or a mixture of two or more such compounds. The composition is formulated such that a portion of from about 5 to about 15 grams of the composition contains at least a recommended daily dietary allowance of at least one of said trace elements. The composition is prepared by dissolving the trace element component in a small amount of water, blending the solution with part of the saline component or with at least part of any diluent or a mixture thereof, and thereafter blending with the saline component or the remainder thereof.
