The present invention relates to a functional salt containing beta-
carotene,
phycocyanin and
carrageenan, and a method for preparing the functional salt. More specifically, the present invention relates to: a functional salt containing, as a functional ingredient, a
Dunaliella culture cultured in high-
salinity salty water or beta-
carotene contained therein,
phycocyanin isolated from a Spirulina culture, and
carrageenan isolated from an extract of
red algae; and a method for preparing the functional salt. The functional salt according to the present invention is an aqueous or
powder-type functional salt, and contains beta-
carotene, which is a functional ingredient derived from
Dunaliella,
phycocyanin, which is a functional ingredient derived from Spirulina, and
carrageenan, which is a functional ingredient derived from
red algae, and thus is beneficial to health, and, has
low sodium content, and thus is a
low sodium salt, thereby enabling side effects caused by excessive intake of salt to be prevented.
