The present invention relates to salt substitutes which can increase sodium sensitivity by increasing TRPV1 expression, and to a Zanthoxylum schinifolium salt composition comprising the same. The salt substitutes comprising an aqueous Zanthoxylum schinifolium ethanol solution increase sodium sensitivity by increasing the expression of TRPV1 gene, and reduce ingestion of salt. 본 발명은 TRPV1 발현을 증가시켜, 나트륨 민감도를 증가시킬 수 있는 소금대체재 및 이를 함유하는 산초소금 조성물에 관한 것이다. 본 발명의 산초() 에탄올 수용액 추출물을 포함하는 소금대체재는 TRPV1 유전자 발현을 증가시킴으로 인해, 나트륨 민감도를 증가시켜, 소금의 섭취를 감소시키는 효과를 발휘한다.
