The "deadly" danger of table salt

You should be careful when using salt, because it can be the cause of many diseases that harm the body.

Stomach cancer is associated with high levels of salt.

Dangerous for the heart

Scientists in the UK and Italy have found a direct link between eating too much salt and strokes and heart disease. They also pointed out that the main culprit in salt causing health problems, especially heart problems, is sodium.

Too much sodium in the body can cause dehydration, leading to noticeable consequences such as swollen feet, affecting heart rate, and even causing sudden heart attacks in users.

The blood vessels leading to the brain are not only constricted but also blocked. A certain part of the cerebral cortex will not be supplied with enough blood, which means a lack of oxygen and necessary nutrients will cause the activity of the nerves here to be paralyzed and die, this phenomenon is called a stroke.

Stomach cancer

Stomach cancer is associated with high levels of salt. In daily meals, you should not eat too many foods containing a lot of salt such as: salted pickles, shrimp paste, fish sauce, canned meat and fish, smoked meat, dried meat, salted meat, processed foods, canned vegetables and fruits...

Risk of gray hair

Eating too much salt can cause young people to have gray hair. The reason is because salt is one of the causes of cardiovascular disease and high blood pressure. When high blood pressure occurs, the amount of blood supplied to the brain is not enough, leading to the ability to synthesize black pigment of the hair follicles and the black pigment is reduced, leading to gray hair.
