Health experts are urging Nigerians to reduce salt intake due to rising rates of hypertension, kidney failure, and heart disease, linked to excessive sodium consumption. Campaigns are underway to educate the public on healthier eating habits and the risks of high salt intake.
The WHO recommends limiting salt intake to prevent serious health issues. Experts advise reading food labels, cooking at home, and using natural spices, while organizations advocate for clearer food labelling to help consumers make informed choices.
