Study: Adults in England eat salt equivalent to 22 bags of crisps every week

Adults in England are consuming far more salt than they may realise, the equivalent of 22 bags of crisps every week, according to new analysis from the British Heart Foundation (BHF).

The study warns that most people are not aware that they are consuming such a high amount.

"Most of the salt we eat is hidden in the food we buy, such as bread, cereals, pre-made sauces and ready meals, so it is difficult to know how much salt we are consuming. This is bad news for our heart health, as eating too much salt significantly increases the risk of high blood pressure, a leading cause of heart attacks, strokes and other serious diseases," said Dell Stanford, a senior dietitian at the BHF.

Health experts warn that excessive salt intake remains one of the most serious and preventable risks to cardiovascular health./CNA
