5 . Chinese people are eating too much salt on average, people in China eat about 10.5 grams of salt each day, much higher than the 6 grams suggested by Chinese Dietary Guidelines.

China now has one of the highest salt intakes (摄入量) in the world. To solve this, China introduced the first salt reduction guide to its food industry (工业) on April 18, 2018. The guide calls for food companies to lower the salt content in their food by improving the way of making food and changing tastes.

The salt we take in usually comes from processed food (加工食品), which can be easily found on supermarket shelves. For example, a 104-gram bag of Lay’s classic potato chips has about 0. 66 grams of salt, about 10% of the suggested daily salt intake! However, unprocessed food, mainly fresh fruits and vegetables contains little. If the guide is followed correctly, the average salt intake will drop by 20% by 2030.

Eating too much salt brings a lot of health problems, especially increasing the risk of high blood pressure. Less salt is important for good health, and there’s no need to worry that food will be less tasty in the future. A study by the Monell Chemical Senses Center found that it’s easy for people to reduce their salt intake. Although you may think your food is not salty enough at first, your taste buds (味蕾) will get used to it and slowly you will feel that your food tastes the same as it did before.
