Consider this...There is strong evidence that links our current high salt intakes to high blood pressure. High blood pressure is the main cause of strokes and a major cause of heart attacks. It is also widely recognized that a high salt diet has other adverse effects, such as osteoporosis, cancer of the stomach, asthma and obesity.

1. Have your physician test you for both heart and kidney disease. Heart disease is a risk factor for kidney disease and kidney disease is a risk factor for heart disease. They are related risks.
2. Don’t smoke. The strongest modifiable risk factor for both kidney and heart disease is smoking. Smoking causes hardening of the arteries in the heart and kidneys.
3. Control blood pressure. High blood pressure puts stress on the heart to cause enlargement and thickening of the heart, ultimately leading to heart failure.
4. Eat a proper diet. In general, you should take in about 200–3000 milligrams of salt or one teaspoon per day. Fat and cholesterol intake should be limited to no more than 20% to 30% of calories. Check food labels for salt and fat content.
5. Maintain a healthy body weight. Balance calorie intake with exercise and activity. To burn off fat, you must be more active than your caloric intake.
