Shelve the Salt Shaker

A recent study found that if Americans cut just one gram of salt from their diet every day, there would be 250,000 fewer new cases of heart disease each year. Salt has long been known to raise blood pressure rates, which can lead to heart disease. Most of the sodium in American diets comes from canned soups and frozen meals so always read labels.
