Since the 1970s we’ve been told to watch our salt intake.  We’ve also been told that too much salt leads to high blood pressure.  But what we were never told was there was no data that backed up this theory.  In this episode, Dr. Nedd will go over the facts about salt intake, salt restrictions, and what you should look for in the salt you use.

Here’s what Dr. Nedd goes over in this episode:

  • The history of the salt restriction recommendations and why they may be causing more harm than good.
  • The dangers from too little salt.
  • Different types of salt and which are best to use.
  • Restaurant and fast food salt – not good salt at all.
