Learning objectives & benefits:
High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is a condition that most people will have at some point in their lives. The majority of Americans have hypertension by the time they are in their 60s and of those who are lucky enough to escape hypertension up to age 65, two-thirds will still develop it before their 75th birthday and 90% by their 85th birthday. High blood pressure is a major risk factor for senility, stroke, congestive heart failure and kidney disease.
According to a recent University of California at Berkeley study, reducing salt intake by 1200mg per day (or by less than 1/3) would save as many lives over the next 10 years as if all American smokers quit tomorrow for good.And research shows that cutting sodium intake even more to about 1200 to 1500mg/day depending on age would virtually eliminate HTN and other lills caused largely by added ("second hand") salt.
