• Dietitian Jaya Gawande warns excessive daily salt intake severely impacts health, leading to heart attacks as early as 30.
• Maximum recommended salt intake is 5 grams per day; many add extra salt during cooking and before meals, a harmful habit.
• Foods like papad, pickles, and high-salt snacks are dangerous due to their high sodium content, increasing health risks.
• Excessive salt leads to high blood pressure, increased risk of heart disease, and adverse effects on kidneys.
• To stay healthy, reduce salt, and use alternatives like buttermilk and lemon for flavor and digestion, advises Jaya Gawande.
