Added Sugar more harmful for Heart than Salt

New Delhi, Dec 15 (ANI): A new study has revealed that added sugars likely to have greater role than salt in high blood pressure and heart disease. The study pointed out that most salt in the diet comes from processed foods, which also happen to be a rich source of added sugars and sugar may be much more meaningfully related to blood pressure than sodium. People whose dietary intake of added sugars adds up to at least a quarter of their total daily calories have almost triple the cardiovascular disease risk. A high fructose diet has also been linked to an unfavorable blood fat profile, higher fasting blood insulin levels, and a doubling in the risk of metabolic syndrome. Dec 15, 2014
