The more salt consume, the more for him the risk of cardiovascular disease, scientists warn
A dangerous relationship is obvious. Salt increases blood pressure, which in turn is fraught with heart attacks and heart disease.
European scientists conducted a large-scale study, which was attended by over 170 thousand volunteers from USA, Japan, UK, Netherlands, Finland and China. For 19 years, the experts analyzed data of patients and made a picture of their cardiovascular disease, including heart attacks of varying severity.
The evaluation data, the researchers stated the following: when you lower your salt intake to five grams (a teaspoon) per day the risk of heart attack falls to 23%, and the probability of cardiovascular disease by 17%.
According to the latest recommendations of the world health organization, the amount of salt consumed should not exceed five grams. Men stubbornly continue to ignore this remark and, on average, consume more than ten grams a day.
"Most of the salt gets into products with industrial processing. And now we are trying to initiate some amendments to reduce this percentage," — says the Professor from the University of Warwick. "Reducing the amount of salt eaten directly reduce the risk of heart attack. Mainly, by reducing pressure".
