People from lower socio-economic groups consume more salt, according to new publications after a survey of the population of Great Britain for the last 10 years.
Salt or sodium chloride is a chemical that is commonly found in many biological fluids and tissues, and its concentration is also related to their regulation in the body. For this reason, if salt levels rise in the body, it leads to fluid retention, and hence to high blood pressure.
A number of pieces of evidence indicate that reduced salt intake regulates blood pressure, and hence the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Excessive sodium chloride intake is the most common cause of morbidity, disability and death, says the director of the World Health Organization, Prof. Francesco Capuccio. This white powder is to blame for cases such as coronary heart disease, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases.
Researchers have found that the risks of consuming more salt spread very quickly, in low- and middle-income countries, to disadvantaged groups.
The professor explains the results because of the inability of these families to consume healthy and low-salt and low-fat foods. For this reason, the results cannot be expected to be different.
In the study, the team studied 1,027 men and women between the ages of 19 and 64 for the period 2008 and 2011. By examining their profession, education, residence. The results showed that those with lower education took in more sodium.
Many social programs are aimed at these groups of people in order to prevent various diseases such as strokes, heart attacks, kidney disease.
According to the research team, it is particularly important to understand the exact cause of these social inequalities, because only in this way will there be improvements in the health of generations.
