High Sodium Diet & Blood Pressure
Doctors have been warning us for years - and the general public is becoming increasingly aware - that how much sodium we consume can have a critical impact on our health and well-being.
Eating too much sodium is known to contribute to hypertension (high blood pressure), strokes and related heart disease. It has also been linked with osteoporosis (brittle bones), stomach cancer, protenuria (renal disease), kidney stones, exacerbation of asthmatic symptoms, obesity and water retention.
In fact it's so important that the government has issued a health warning. According to its guidelines, adults should eat no more than 2.4g of sodium (that's 6g of table, rock or sea salt) per day. For 7-10 year olds, it's even less - just 2g of sodium (equivalent to 5g of salt).
