Excess Salt Is Dangerous
Doctors are mounting an
assault on one of society's
• strongest, most dangerous
eating habits: exess salt.
Physicians b pe to educate
people about this problem in
an effort to prevent health
problems including high
blood pressure, a common
disease many researchers
believe is linked to salt.
Since salt often shows up
in many seemingly unsalty
foods such as pudding and
• breakfast cereals, excesses
can be tough to avoid,
especially if people do not
know how much is in the
products, the Texas Medical
Association (TMA) said.
The American Medical
Association has recom-
mended that processors
produce food labels that
show the amounts of salt
added to products. If this
£ labeling requirement
becomes law, then people
will have an opportunity to
avoid up to 50 percent of W" i
salt they now eat. Since an
American Societies for
American Biology panel
estimates that fnosl people
eat 10 times too much salt, a
50 percent reduction would
leave more salt than
necessary in the diet, but it is
A progress.
How much salt people eat
may make a difference.
■Over a period of time that
•varies with individuals and
-amounts consumed, too
.'much salt may contribute
to high blood pressure,
.especially for the 10 percent
;to 30 percent of the
population with inherited
tendencies toward the,
A disease.

control most high blood
pressure before it causes
stroke, kidi.ey problems or
heart disease. One treat-
ment sometimes recom-
mended is to shake the salt
habit.
Ultimately it is each
person's responsibility to be
aware of salt, TMA said.
Reading food labels is one
way to avoid foods with a lot
of salt. If a substance is
included early in the list of
ingredients, that means it is
a major ingredient. Check
your local library for the
March 1979 issue of Con-
sumer Reports magazine or
other publications that
discuss salt content of foods.
It does not require reading to
spot one of the most obvious
salt sources, the shaker on
the dining table. People can
cut 25 percent ot 35 percent
of their salt consumption
just by not adding salt at the
table.
