Re: Very good overview/salt/hypertension/obesity connection

Hi Kim:

Of course the japanese eat huge amounts of salt and have a negligible

amount (about one seventh the US rate) of heart disease.

But they do have seven times more stomach cancer than americans -

which at least one study in Japan suggests may be linked to their

salt consumption. I minimize the salt I use, most of the time.
