RE: Is salt intake bad for human health? And is there a difference between the chemically refined table salt and natural salt? [English/German]
From my understanding, a large part of the push to demonize salt in the mid-1900s, particularly in the U.S., came from the sugar lobby to divert negative attention they were receiving. I'd have to look into it again for the details since it's been a few years since I last read up on the subject.
Excellent and very informative article!
That actually makes sense. Would be interesting if you could research this story!
Sure, I already know where to find some good reference material on the subject. I'll place it as either 2nd or 3rd in my queue, I can list this one as a companion article when I finish it. :)
