There it is crucial to get in touch with a professional to assess the levels of sodium. This can be done by urine tests and diet assessments.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The present study, published in\u00a0<em>European Heart Journal<\/em>, scrutinised data from over half a million people with an average age of 57 years old. A questionnaire found out the frequency of salt added to food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Researchers found that rates of mortality increased due to higher chances of cancer and cardiovascular diseases.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, individuals who, along with high salt intake, took fruits and vegetables were not at a higher risk of premature death.
