Salt in moderate quantity (0.9%)
What you need to know
• A high consumption of salt (or sodium) can cause raised blood pressure, which can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.
• Many people who have high blood pressure do not know it, as there are often no symptoms.
• Most people consume too much salt (on average 9 to 12 grams per day), around twice the recommended maximum level of intake.
Recommendation: Limit the consumption of salt and salted food
• Reduce the quantity of salt used when cooking, and don't salt again at the table.
• Limit the consumption of salty snacks and choose products with lower salt content.
