Krasnoyarsk residents were told how less salt was

In the Krasnoyarsk Rospotrebnadzor, recommendations were given how to reduce salt consumption.

Experts advise adhere to six simple rules:

• Salt the dish not in the process of cooking, but just before meals – so taste receptors will immediately receive a signal of salinity. And if you season food during cooking, the taste of salt becomes less pronounced and the body does not immediately “recognize” it.
• Remove the salt shaker from the dining table – if it is not at hand, you will not salt food out of habit without hesitation.
• Refuse salted appetizers and fast -cooking products – nuts, chips, dry soups, noodles, puree from the category of “just add water” are usually equipped with a mixture of seasonings and other food additives containing a lot of salt.
• When using canned vegetables, first rinse them from brine in ordinary water. In general, it is better to give preference to fresh vegetables.
• Replace part of the salt in the diet with fragrant spicy herbs – they will taste the dishes more saturated and interesting, and due to the content of antioxidants will favorably affect immunity.
• Diversify the diet with potatoes rich (bananas, potatoes, spinach), which helps to quickly remove excess salt from the body.

Recall, according to WHO recommendations, The physiological norm for an adult per day is the use of 5 grams of salt or 1 teaspoon. And its excessive consumption Negatively affects the heart, vessels, kidneys, brain and other systems, increasing the risk of dangerous diseases.
