So salt is a population risk factor more than an individual risk factor except in people with high blood pressure, so what that means is if a population has a lot of salt, they get a lot of heart disease. And if a population has a low intake of salt, they get a low incidence of heart disease. But the main individuals who need to be concerned about salt are those who’ve been diagnosed with high blood pressure.
