a little bit of salt never hurt anyone, but salt in high concentrations, which is often what you will find here in america is not good. leads to hypertension which is a risk factor for many other cardiovascular issues as well like stroke, diabetes and CVD

thanks maybe ill stop drinking salt water every morning then!

I mean, hey, I don't wanna throw you outta your routine, but maybe limiting it down to one or a few times a week instead of everyday would be a solid start!
Like i said a little bit of salt won't kill ya, but when you start consuming sodium in excessive amounts of around 2,300 mg + per day you could pose some serious health risks for the future

~Respect

@conradsuperb are these risk factors due to the salt or the food that the high concentration of salts are in!

i try to eat none processed food so i cook myself, and i don't see how i could overeat on salt.

SALT sodium NaCl
staying away from processed foods is good, be conscientious about the amount of salt you add to your foods when cooking at home (most foods are already made with salt when they are prepared) 2000 mg per day is fine, when you start getting above this it will not be good in long term AKA HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

when i buy fresh beef from my local market do you think they add salt?
also 2000mg per day is that like WHO recomendations?
guess it depends on your body size and other circumstances i trsin jujitsu twice a day in 30decgreese c heat if i stick below 2000mg id be full of cramp
as i witnessed today from holiday makers here training with us were all cramped up because they are not used to / prepared for the heat

WHO recommends, as an UPPER limit of 2300 mg. Below this value is where you want to be. Yes, there will already be a baseline level of sodium in many products you purchase, including your beef from the local market, pork, chicken, and even bread

i don't listen to the WHO or FDA i listen to my body
these corporations are just out to get money all in each others pockets amoung other companies like monsanto!
legal drug dealers killing children!
ive not eaten bread in years
i guess im kinda safe at my local market or safer than a supermarket!
thanks for the article it made me further stronger my point of not pay attention to the FDA criminals

peace

Yeah man I hear ya loud n clear!! Sometimes its tough to know your bodies chemistry though, so be careful with that.

Peace n blessings to ya
