Do you care about your health and the health of your family?

 

If leading a healthy lifestyle is important to you, then consider the following:

 

- The recommended daily intake of sodium for healthy adults under 50 is 2300mg, and only 1,500mg for adults between 50-70 years old. But the average American consumes over 4,000mg of sodium per day, nearly twice the recommended amount.   - British researchers have recently published a study stating that a 10% sodium reduction in our diets would save thousands of lives and prevent thousands of strokes and heart attacks each year in the UK alone.   - Among people with high blood pressure (hypertension), about 60 percent are considered "salt sensitive," meaning that a reduction in dietary salt intake could have an immediate effect in lowering blood pressure.   - The salt you add to your food while eating and cooking accounts for over 10% of your total daily sodium intake. Imagine if you could cut your added sodium in half with virtually no effort or change in habits!

 

 

 

So what can you do?

 

As part of a healthy lifestyle, using Lessalt is a great way to reduce the sodium in your diet, without sacrificing any of the flavor of regular salt. Lessalt is the all-natural salt substitute designed to replace salt in all applications - from the salt shaker on your table to the salt in your cake recipes - all while achieving a 50% reduction in sodium.

 

So the next time you’re about to add a dash of salt to your dish, try Lessalt instead and see if you can tell the difference. Your heart will thank you later.
