to a 2nd place finish in a recent tournament Salt was once rare and as highly valued as money Today it is hard to imagine food without it It is the sodium component of sodium chloride table salt which causes concern Sodium is essential to certain body functions like maintaining blood pressure transmitting nerve pulses and controlling fluid levels The kidneys are responsible for keeping normal levels of sodium in body fluids When there is too much sodium in the body the kidneys excrete it and they pump sodium back into the blood when the body needs it Research has linked high salt consumption to hypertension high blood pressure a risk factor heart disease stroke and kidney disease In hypertensive people the kidneys cannot get rid of enough sodium and the retention of sodium causes extra water and a higher blood volume The higher blood volume puts more pressure on the narrow blood vessels and on the heart which then has more blood to pump through the body The average Canadian consumes of salt a day more than double the amount required Your daily intake of salt comes from three sources 1 Sodium is found naturally in a variety of foods including the water you drink and some drugs Usually these amounts are not ex cessive but they are sufficient to meet your daily requirements One quarter to one third of our sodium intake comes from salt or sodium manufacturers add to foods to preserve them enhance flavour control moisture levels and give texture Example sodium is added to vegetables during canning A serving of fresh peas has only 2 mg of sodium while the equivalent serving of canned peas contains 236 Watch out for the following on food labels salt brine monosodium glutamate sodium etc among the ingredients Fast foods are usually high in sodium as well About one quarter to one half of our sodium intake comes from the salt we add during cooking and before eating Here is where you have the most control and you should try to hold the salt FITNESS FAIR
