Salt (Roizon article)

Recent talks about the risks of SALT (that’s NaCl, or table salt) don’t seem to be making the world of health a safer place either. According to a new World Health Organization report, in the next seven years more than 7 million people worldwide could die because of excessive salt consumption. Excess salt ups the risk for everything from cardiovascular and kidney disease to immune conditions and stomach cancer.

WHO says countries need to adopt mandatory policies that address how food is formulated, enforce front-of-package labeling and limit sodium in foods and meals, especially those served in hospitals, schools, workplaces and nursing homes. Only nine countries — Brazil, Chile, Czech Republic, Lithuania, Malaysia, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Spain and Uruguay — currently enforce at least two of the four steps WHO recommends.

In this country, the Food and Drug Administration suggests daily intake be reduced from the average 3,400 milligrams down to 2,300 milligrams for folks aged 14-plus. But “suggestions” aren’t enough to reduce American’s risk of death from excess salt intake. So, it’s up to you to avoid packaged foods with added salt — that includes chips; salted nuts; smoked, cured, salted or canned meat, including bacon, cold cuts, ham, frankfurters and sausage; burritos and pizza; canned ravioli and chili and beans with added salt. Don’t let salt assault your health!
