    No one’s freaking out, just don’t eat too much. Many, many packaged things have a bunch of salt in them. And in general, it’s good to be aware of.

    Salt requirements obviously vary from person to person and depend on your activity that day (losing it to sweat) etc.

    You’re not gonna die from a bit too much salt every now and then.

    But as all things: In moderation.

    Just because the situation with fat was stupid (and, in my opinion, was because of marketing by vested interests to take the heat of sugar) doesn’t mean all health science is quackery.

    “Too much salt is bad for you” isn’t a radical take.
