  • WHO recommends using lower-sodium salt substitutes with potassium for adults to reduce sodium intake and improve health.

  • Pregnant women, children, and individuals with kidney issues should not use these substitutes.

Sodium’s Impact on Health 

  • High salt intake raises blood pressure, increasing the risk of heart diseases, strokes, and other health issues. 

  • Reducing salt helps lower blood volume and improves cardiovascular health.

  • High sodium intake contributes to 1.9 million deaths annually due to diseases like heart disease and kidney disease.

  • WHO's guidelines promote using lower-sodium salt substitutes (sodium chloride replaced by potassium chloride) at home, but not in packaged foods.

Public Health Focus

  • The goal is to make low-sodium salt more accessible and affordable, promoting population-level behavior change, especially in countries like India where high salt intake is common.
