Salt is as equally bad for your health as sugar. Many people add salt to their food on a routine basis, and this results in a greater risk of high blood pressure. Also, a lot of salt is present in canned foods and ready-made foods, especially those containing meat. Excessive salt causes the skin to dehydrate and make it drier. This results in puffiness, flakiness and dull skin. Always check the label when buying canned food to ensure you are not getting too much salt in your diet. It's a good idea to remove the salt shaker from the table.
