The researchers found the association of adding salt to foods with heart disease risk was stronger in participants of lower socioeconomic status, as well as in current smokers.

Yet another garbage study (one of many faults as reported).

It would last me longer.I never add salt,there is plenty in canned and prepared food.

[GaltAdonis]

And I add a dash when baking - it helps the baking powder to do it's thing - supposedly.
Like 1/2 a teaspoon.

I thought this has been common knowledge among all civilized people. Oh, wait. We've been forced to accommodate uncivilized people (domestic and savage) in the last 50 years.

Never mind.

My last check-up in Nov showed elevated sodium, but they were not worried over it because it fluctuates daily with salt intake and how much water you drink and if it’s summertime and you sweat a lot....................

I thought this was common knowledge back in the ‘50s. Too much salt is bad for you.

We haven’t bought salt in probably 10 years. Prepared food sometimes just screams, “Too much salt!”. Ditto for sugar.

[Red Badger]

Too little salt is more dangerous than too high salt................

“I’m 86 and at last week’s doc appointment my blood pressure was almost too low.”

Mom is 98, eats anything and everything she wants to, and her blood panels are perfect. They’re better than mine, and I make an effort to eat right.

Amy’s is so good. Expensive, though. We used to get it at Walmart, but haven’t seen it there lately.

Paleo/anti-inflammatory diet is a strong alternative.

Yup, and as opposed to salt, I pepper the hell out of everything. Eggs are basically blanketed black as of this writing.

[Eepsy]

This is the most ridiculous study I’ve ever seen. I add salt to everything I eat- my oatmeal, my eggs, my meat, and my veggies, but the salt I apply is the only salt those items get. My parents never add salt to their food- but all their food is processed or from restaurants so not low salt in the slightest. And then you have people like my dear grandpa, who would have still called for the salt shaker if you put a lick in front of him.

[Veto!]

I eat very right. Lots of butter, 2 percent milk, olive oil, beef, chicken, salmon, organic potatoes and veggies. No wheat. No pork.

Suggest you read book by Wm Davis, MD: Wheat Belly. I bought a copy, and all libraries have it too.

[MayflowerMadam]

I stopped bread, rice, potatoes, and pasta a year ago. Hate fairy, so none of that except butter which I love. Lots of chicken, tilapia, salmon. About an even about of red meat.

[Jane Long]

Isn’t talapia farm raised....in China??

Maybe there are wild caught brands that I am not aware of.

[Jane Long]

I’ve read the same.

No idea if himalayan (?) is without the adverse effects of regular table salt.

[dfwgator]

Talapia is the junk food of fish.

[Jane Long]

That’s what I’ve read, as well.

[goodnesswins]

I like it because does not have additives of regular salt

[MayflowerMadam]

Maybe China. I don’t know. I hate fish except some salmon is OK. Tilapia from Costco frozen section is the only thing I can stomach.
