March 13/Toronto/Red Orbit -- Some 80% of survey respondents agree the food industry should use less salt, according to new study published in the Canadian Journal of Cardiology.
Many Canadians are concerned about dietary sodium and welcome government intervention to reduce sodium intake through a variety of measures, including lowering sodium in food, and education and awareness, according to a national survey. The top barriers to limiting sodium intake are a lack of lower sodium packaged and processed foods and lower sodium restaurant menu options.
