Relationship of household salt intake level with long-term all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality in Japan: NIPPON DATA80

The odds of dying from stroke, cardiovascular ailments, and other chronic diseases may be stacked against generous consumers of salt-rich diets.

This study examined the influence of eating salty foods on  cardiovascular and total mortality risk. Researchers monitored dietary and death records of more than 8,500 Japanese men and women over a 24-year period. 

Researchers observed that the greater the amount of salty foods consumed by participants, the higher their likelihood of suffering from deaths arising from stroke, cardiovascular ailments, coronary heart disease (CHD), and other causes. This study provides strong evidence that high dietary ingestion of salty foods may contribute to the rising number of deaths from stroke, cardiovascular disorders, and coronary heart disease.
