Salt intake reduction

Reducing salt intake means consuming less sodium, which is a key component of salt. High salt consumption can lead to increased blood pressure and higher risk of heart disease and stroke. To lower your intake, try eating fresh foods instead of processed ones, read nutrition labels to choose lower-salt options, and use herbs or spices for flavor instead of salt. Cooking more at home allows better control over salt levels. Making these changes can help improve your overall health and reduce the risk of chronic conditions linked to excessive salt consumption.
