Compositions that are effective as salt substitutes and enhancers comprise novel mixtures of sodium chloride and derivatives of amiloride, indanyloxyacetic acid, or anthranilic acid. The present invention provides for a method of enhancing the saltiness of edible materials by the addition of the above-mentioned derivatives. The present invention further provides for a method of imparting saltiness to, or enhancing saltiness of, edible materials by the administration or use of the above-mentioned derivatives in lieu of the higher levels of sodium chloride that would be required if sodium chloride were being used alone.
