Surprisingly Salty Foods
Dear Reader,
It's not just the chips and saltshaker to blame for the stunningly high amounts of sodium most Americans are eating. In fact, we get the bulk of our daily salt intake from everyday foods that are packed with extra sodium according to a new report out of the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association that identifies the "salty six" foods - things like cold cuts, pizza, chicken and even bread.
It's true, more than 75% of our salt is coming from processed foods or meals ordered at restaurants according to experts like research nutritionist Linda Van Horn, Ph.D. RD, from Northwestern University who is also spokesperson for the American Heart Association. Here are the surprising foods that have been identified as sources of so much of our sodium...
1. Bread and rolls - one piece of bread might have 230 mg (15% of your daily total) and though this doesn't seem like all that much, small amounts add up. Toast at breakfast, a sandwich at lunch, rolls for dinner...
2. Cold cuts/cured meats - salt is an age old preservative and is used today to most cooked and processed meats to keep them fresh. Even lunch meat "good guy" turkey can have as much as 1,050 mg of sodium in a serving.
3. Pizza - one slice brings up to 760 mg. of sodium... two slices bring you to the AHA recommendation for sodium intake.
4. Chicken - raw chicken is often packaged with an added salt solution. What's more, depending on how you make it, the level of sodium can add up quickly - 3 ounces of frozen/breaded chicken nuggets have almost 600 mg of salt.
5. Soup - is a diet and cold weather staple, but it can also bring a whole day's worth of salt in that steaming bowl. One cup of canned chicken soup can have almost 940 mg of sodium along with its delicious taste.
6. Sandwiches - the makings, bread and cured meats are already high in salt, then add condiments like mustard and ketchup and that lunchtime must brings you a full 1,500 mg of sodium as well.

Surprisingly Salty Foods Continued...
You can see how easy it is for people to take in almost 3,400 milligrams of sodium each day - more than two times the amount (1,500 mg) recommended for healthy adults by the American Heart Association.
This isn't a universally held number, the USDA limit is 2,300 mg of sodium a day for a healthy adult, calling for the lower level only for African Americans, those who are over 51 years old and those with high blood pressure. The American Heart Association defended its position in a recent paper that suggests research on lower sodium diets and poor health have some serious flaws and that cutting salt intake is a vital public health measure.
We know that eating too much salt brings risk for health problems like high blood pressure, stroke and heart disease. It can also affect your looks, causing you to be puffier, swollen and have bags under your eyes. If you want to keep your salt intake in line, keep those "salty six" in mind as you shop or order at a restaurant, look at the sodium levels in what you buy, remember that sodium content is based on a single serving, and look for the AHA red heart with the white check mark on foods to identify heart healthy options.
To your good health,
Kirsten Whittaker
