Chloride in VH Life: 126mg per sachet, and what it may claim
A VH Life sachet provides 126mg of chloride (15.8% of the NRV), as pink Himalayan salt (sodium chloride). Chloride has one authorised claim in Great Britain, but the register says it cannot be used for chloride from sodium chloride. VH Life's chloride comes from salt, so the claim does not apply and we make none. Chloride is a mineral taken in mostly as salt (sodium chloride).
