Threatening the heart and kidneys ... Damages of wholesale excessive salt intake

"Global Health": 5 grams, the permissible daily amount of salt

The German Federal Center for Nutrition reports that excessive salt intake leads to high blood pressure, which in turn raises the risk of cardiovascular disease such as stroke.

He added that excessive salt intake also harms the liver and kidneys, and leads to obesity and stomach cancer.

To avoid these serious, life-threatening risks, the amount of salt consumed daily should not exceed five grams, according to the recommendations of the World Health Organization.

To reduce salt consumption, you should avoid fast food and prepared foods and eat fresh foods instead.
