EATING TO MUCH SALT - A HIDDEN THREAT TO YOUR HEALTH
Did you know that your salty habits are silently nibbling away at your health?
According to WHO recommendations, each person should consume a maximum of 5g of salt per day. However, the reality is that the average salt intake of Vietnamese people is 2-3 times higher than this recommendation.
So, what are the harms of consuming too much salt?
- Increases the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke. Excess salt causes the body to retain more water, putting pressure on the heart and blood vessels, and leading to dangerous diseases.
- Harms the kidneys. The kidneys have to work hard to filter out excess salt, leading to a decline in kidney function over time.
- Weakens bones. Excess salt increases calcium excretion through urine, making bones weaker and more prone to fractures.
- Causes swelling and obesity. Excess salt causes the body to retain water, leading to swelling and uncontrolled weight gain.
So how can you reduce your salt intake? - Start with small habits:
- Limit processed foods and fast food.
- Cook at home and season to taste.
- Use natural spices like shrimp, herbs, and vegetables to add flavor to your dishes.
- Choose foods that clearly state the salt content on the packaging.
