Most #salt comes from processed foods — not the shaker.

Hidden salt increases blood pressure and raises risks of stroke and heart attack.

We need stronger policies to create healthier food environments.

[WHO Ukraine @WHOUkraine]

Men face higher hypertension-related mortality, often linked to higher #salt intake.

Mandatory salt reduction policies can help close the gap.
