Why eating too little salt is also bad for your health

A lack of salt, like its excess, has a bad effect on health. And this has been confirmed by recent scientific studies.

Salt is perhaps the most popular seasoning in the world. It is known that excess salt has a negative effect on the cardiovascular system. However, a lack of salt also has a bad effect on human health.

A new study has found that people with heart failure who consume insufficient amounts of salt may increase their risk of early death.

For the study, experts examined data from nine scientific papers. These papers included information on almost 3,500 patients with heart failure. It turned out that people with heart failure who consumed less than 2.5 grams of sodium per day were 80% more likely to die early.
