How much salt is TOO MUCH salt ?


For men and women above 50 an advice from a doctor to reduce salt could become a nightmare.

Reduce Salt, your physician advises.  You want to obey him. 
But you do not know how much salt you are permitted to use in your food every day.

And each day, when you look at your dinner plate, you are reminded of your doctor's advice.

Now the question is
HOW MUCH is TOO MUCH ?
Again, we hardly know how much salt our food that invariably consists of processed food, fried chips, contain apart from vegetables that also contain salt.

Now, coming to salt, you are not the only one unable to distinguish or understand the difference between common salt and salt contained in various vegetables.
