Daily Salt Intake Of Most Americans Too High: What Are The Risks..?
Dear Reader,
The CDC has a message for us - most Americans take in too much salt each day, likely without even realizing it. What happens is that people unknowingly up their risk of high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke according to a new report.
But it's not just the saltshaker that's causing all the trouble; most of our sodium intake comes from other, less obvious, sources.
Almost 75% of the salt in our diet is added to commercial foods when they're processed, or restaurant foods when they're cooked; only 25% of our salt intake comes naturally as part of the foods we eat, or is added during cooking or at the table.
One teaspoon of table salt brings 2,325 milligrams of sodium. If you're like
most Americans, you're taking in far more sodium (around 3,400 mg/day) than you
should be.
Of course your body needs some sodium to retain the right balance
of fluids,
helps transmit nerve impulses and influences the contraction/relaxation of muscles.
The kidneys do the job of balancing the sodium levels in your body, only when
they can't do the job does the sodium accumulate in your blood, your blood volume
increases and this makes your heart work harder, putting pressure on your arteries.
Some people are more salt sensitive than others.
The results of the report are based on information from 18,823 subjects that was collected from 2005 to 2008; and appear in the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report for October 21, 2011.
According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010, there are two levels of salt intake recommended.
1. Those over age 51, who are African American or have hypertension,
diabetes or chronic kidney disease should take in no more than 1,500 milligrams
a day. This will help cut your risk of high blood pressure and other heart related complication. This guideline applies to almost 48% of the total population over 2 years old. The CDC report says that almost all (99%) of this group goes over the recommended amount of salt intake each day.

Daily Salt Intake Of Most Americans Too High: What Are The Risks..? Continued...
2. All others over two years old should take in no more than 2,300 milligrams
of salt a day according to the federal guidelines. Nearly 90% of that
group exceeds the daily recommended intake for sodium.
The institute of Medicine believes the 1,500 milligram sodium intake level is
good for most adults, excluding those such as firemen and athletes who do things
that cause them to sweat excessively. The concern is that with so many of us
exceeding the recommendations, there are lots more people at risk for high blood
pressure and other dangerous diseases.
Experts want to get our salt intake numbers down. In the U.K. both government
and private programs have cut the individual salt intake by 9.5% a day. If that
could happen in the United States, an estimated $4 billion could be saved each
year in health care costs alone.
If you're worried about your own salt intake, talk with your doctor and do what
you can to watch how much you're getting.
To your good health,
