‘Salty’ reality - Too much salt intake during teenage years ups the risk of stroke later.
Too much salt in adolescents’ diet may adversely affect their blood vessels, increasing the risk for cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke, during adulthood. Too much salt caused measurable changes in their blood vessels that led to arterial stiffness, or hardening of the arteries – early signs of cardiovascular disease. Further, higher average daily sodium intake are associated with lower brachial artery (BrachD), locates in the upper arm and higher pulse wave velocity (PWV). Both these readings indicate higher levels of stiffness in both peripheral arteries in the extremities, as well as in central arteries, tied to higher sodium consumption.
nice pls follow and upvote for me daily and i also do upvote for you daily
Thank you.
Good one bro, but there is other side of the coin too, anything too much is bad. Salt should be used as a medicine not as some healthy diet that give you more energy on consuming more. Welcome to steemit, hope you enjoy being here.. Good luck..
Thank you, bro.
I use to take too much salt with my food when I was a kid. I wonder if I will suffer from these diseases that you have mentioned.
Salt is an important ingredient in our food, and it is required to keep a healthy diet. People often get scared that too much salt can lead to higher blood pressure and other complications and hence do not take as much as it is needed.
I have had read in many places that the ideal intake of salt must be at least eight grams per day and must not exceed that limit.
