Nigerians get warning on salt consumption

Okolie, who works in the Chukwemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital , told the News Agency of Nigeria in Awka that the consumption of non-iodised salt was dangerous to human health.

“This is why doctors will often tell people with high blood pressure to stop intake of non-iodised salt. Moreover, excessive salt intake causes us to retain waters and other fluids. “It can also cause thyroid and liver problems, as well as the development of Goiters, Hypertension, Heart disease, Edema, Stroke, Heart failure, and even major nervous system disorders such as anxiety and depression,’’ he said.

“You should also use salt that is packaged for domestic consumption and not those that are normally spread in open spaces and sold in various quantities.
