Americans have a very high salt consumption

A US government study recently shares that Americans have a very high salt consumption and that ain’t good.

This is because many of the serious health conditions out there are related to high salt intake.

Yes it may be tempting and taste better for your food, but there’s always healthy alternative to such foods.

You need to tackle this salt issue if you want to avoid health problems such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, stroke, heart disease and heart attack, osteopenia (weakened bones), asthma, most cancers in the future.

The recommended intake is no more than 1,500mg of sodium a day or a little under 4g of salt.
