       The core of salt reduction should be kept in mind

　　Salt is called the "first condiment". You can only put salt in most dishes, but you can't leave it alone.

　　Salt provides sodium ions and chloride ions to maintain osmotic pressure and acid-base balance, and plays an important role in maintaining nerve and muscle stress and regulating physiological functions.

　　The proposal suggests that healthy adults should not consume more than 5 grams of salt per day, but it is far higher than the standard.

　　The harm of excessive salt to the body cannot be ignored.

　　What's the harm of too much salt?

　　① Excessive salt intake is an important cause of hypertension

　　When a person eats 2 grams of salt every day, the systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure increase by 2.0 mm Hg and 1.2 mm Hg respectively.

　　② High salt diet can increase the load of heart and kidney

　　We all know that, for example, excessive sodium intake will lead to water retention in the body, increase the pressure in the blood vessels, increase resistance, and increase the load on the heart. Over time, it will lead to cardiac hypertrophy, heart failure, renal dysfunction and other incurable diseases, which is the curse of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

　　③ Hypertension is one of the biggest causes of death from stroke, heart disease and kidney disease

　　Reducing salt intake can significantly reduce the number of deaths from stroke, heart disease and chronic kidney disease.

　　④ Excessive salt intake easily causes gastric cancer and calcium loss, leading to osteoporosis
