Hold the salt!

As reported by NPR – “How bad is all that salt in the food you eat? Let’s put it this way, if everyone in the country ate just a half-teaspoon less salt each day, it would save the lives of between 44,000 and 92,000 people a year.”

Or so says the New England Journal of Medicine.

Half a teaspoon a day less salt? How much of the white stuff are we eating? The “average American gets about 10.4 grams of salt a day; women consume about 7.3 grams a day.”

U R what U eat.
