People who always add salt to their food after cooking are 28% more likely to be at risk of an early death, when compared to those who never or rarely use extra salt on meals, according to new research published in the
European Heart Journal.
The study also found a link between those who always add extra salt to foods and a lower life expectancy at age 50 – 1.5 years lower for women and just over 2 years lower for men.
The researchers also found that eating lots of high-potassium foods, such as fruit and vegetables, may help to reduce this increased risk of an early death.
For this study, researchers used results from a questionnaire by
UK Biobank – a research database which contains medical information from over 500,000 volunteers – to find out if and how often people are adding salt to their food after cooking.
Overall, the study claims that its findings show “even a modest reduction” in salt is likely to provide health benefits.
