they are worried about the sodium, and hypertension - as you know. SOME kids do have hypertension. but the real reason they want to reduce salt in kids food is so they won t develop a taste for it, which would lead to them using more and more salt as they age. If they are used to the taste of unsalted food, there won t be the increasing salt use.
There has never been ANY link proven between salt and high blood pressure. Salt is very necessary to the functions of your body - you can overdo anything of course. Having children on low salt diet to me sounds like dangerous nonsense.
They were talking about table salt. I recommend sea salt Redmond Brand. You need to make sure it s not from polluted water. Anyway, most people feed their kids junk food which has way to much salt(table).....so, you don t need to give them extra. All of that food store chemical food has depleted manufactured salt. Sea salt however, is healthy. Try to buy foods in a health food store that when they have salt it is sea salt. Check out the health benefits of sea salt on the web. When I get a muscle pull I put a teaspoon of sea salt into a half a glass of water, since it gives you minerals the muscle pull goes away within minutes! It s a life saver!
Salt raises blood pressure so u are more likely to suffer from strokes, cardiac arrests etc. I have low blood pressure though so wherever i go i carry a sachet of salt with me in case i feel weak. It all depends on the person. Older people are advised to eat less salt than children because they are more prone to heart attacks etc. But salt effects children in the same way so its better if they do have high blood pressure to cut it out. Its all to do with whats hereditary. Hope i helped!
The key factor in salt is the Sodium (N), it is bad for you to take in to much of this, and you can feel the effects in things such as your hands when you have to much sodium in your system. The Chloride (Cl) isn t really the problem so much...
no, it is NOT fat. it can raise your blood pressure like crazy though and put you at risk for more heart diseases. my dad and grandfather has a heart disease and when I was seven years old my dad s doctor told my parents to make sure they watch how much salt I eat. the more you salt things when you re a child..the more you ll do it when you re older.
I think too much sodium can possibly create an imbalance of the fluids in ANYONE S body...child or adult, as well as contribute to the contraction and relaxation of muscles.
raises blood pressure and kills your liver. When you go to a restaurant and pile ur food with salt thats STUPID they already have salt in it and its really bad for you, same with any other food.
Too much will kill you. It ll raise the blood pressure and an individual is 3x more likely to have a heart attack or a stroke
well salt is basicly all fat and it raises blood preser and it clogs some arteries if there is too much but i dont think some will kill you or anything
all it is is fat!
