Salt Intake and CVD Protection- An insightful discussion with experts

Overview

To maintain optimal physiological function in the body, sodium is a necessary nutrient. However, the increased consumption of junk food and other preserved foods has increased the consumption of added salts. Several studies have shown that increased salt consumption is associated with an increased risk of high blood pressure. Therefore, reducing salt intake decreases blood pressure and lowers the chance of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD).
