WHO report warns people about over consumption of salt; know what else it says

According to WHO, a person should consume only&nbsp;5 grams of salt in a day, whereas people consume twice as much of it daily.

Excess intake of sodium is becoming one of the major causes of deaths and life risking diseases across the globe, according to a recent report released by World Health Organization (WHO).&nbsp;
According to WHO, a person should consume only 5 grams of salt in a day, whereas people consume twice as much of it daily. Sodium is essential for our body but if consumed in excess, can cause heart attack, stroke and premature death. Salt is the major source of sodium and people tend to add extra salt in their food.
The WHO report also states that if the right policy is implemented in all the countries on low consumption of sodium right away, then by 2030 lives of 7 million people can be saved globally.&nbsp;

Adding salt to your meals linked to earlier death: Study 

Don't pass the salt! Study claims too much sodium linked to early death

New research has found that those who always add salt to their food have a 28% increased risk of dying prematurely.&nbsp;

According to a study published in the European Heart Journal, people who add extra salt to their food are at a higher risk of dying prematurely compared to those who never or rarely add salt.&nbsp;
For the study, researchers examined more than 5,00,000 middle-aged participants over 9 years. Almost 18,500 premature deaths were recorded after the data was collected between 2006 and 2010.
The findings suggest that people who add extra salt to their food have a 28 per cent increased risk of dying prematurely. Sprinkling salt on meals knocks more than two years off life expectancy so people should consider avoiding seasoning their food, study authors concluded.&nbsp;
As per the World Health Organisation (WHO), high sodium consumption contributes to high blood pressure and increases the risk of heart disease and stroke. Salt intake of less than 5 grams per day is recommended for adults as it reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases.&nbsp;
