The cheeses saltier than a bag of crisps: Alarming levels contributing to high blood pressure responsible for heart attacks and strokes | Mail Online
Everyone seems to have a vendetta against the very food that is actually good for us and it's really annoying me! OK so it's only the daily mail but it is indicative of what many people believe. Normally it is fat getting the most press nowadays, been a while since i've seen a salt article. I'm scared at this rate the world in the future will be without natural foods at all and will consist of processed junk that is low in fat/salt but high in sugar/carbs.
On a side note, anyone find that on Atkins you actually need to eat more salt than before? I know for me if i don't get enough salt i start to feel faint on Atkins after a while. I tend to add salt to everything. And i have a blood pressure which is spot on perfect.
