Pay attention to eating salad
1, with high salt content
Never think that salad is absolutely healthy food. In fact, the salt content of salads in some fast food restaurants is equivalent to a hamburger and French fries, or even higher. In many coffee shops and fast food restaurants, it is found that the average salt content of 156 ready-made salads is 1.4g, which is healthy, and some salads have exceeded the recommended intake of 2g per meal.
Experts say that reducing the salt intake per meal can save thousands of lives. A large number of people regard salad as a healthy lunch, but participants must keep the salt content within the standard range. If the content of salt and fat is too high, it will seriously endanger human health.

If you can reduce two or three grams of salt every day, you can protect your health. Although this number sounds small, if you reduce this amount of salt intake, you can reduce the risk of heart disease or stroke by a quarter.
Most of the salt in salad food comes from its ingredients, such as ham, bacon and cheese. These foods are usually rich in salt. Therefore, when eating salad, it is best to make it yourself, and it is mainly low in salt and fat.
