Abstract :
For the human body to function correctly, salt
is necessary, but it can also have negative effects. Long-
term overconsumption of salt in food can result in major
health issues and complications. Excessive consumption
of salt can lead to high blood pressure, a problem that
affects people all over the world, heart attacks, strokes,
kidney diseases, and certain types of cancer. One of the
main sources of salt in the human diet is the food
industry, which includes the meat industry. Salt is added
to food in amounts that are more than enough to
enhance its flavour without compromising the body's
ability to function normally. Simultaneously, consuming
higher amounts of meat products on a daily basis results
in an increased salt intake within the body. Numerous
initiatives and plans are being developed to lower salt
consumption through diet in an effort to stop the onset of
various diseases associated with high salt consumption.
