It's August meaning a new Healthy For Life topic! This month we are focusing on how to be salt savvy! With students preparing to come back to Uni or for new Freshers it is important to keep up a healthy diet outside of home. Living independently from our parents means we don't always think about the nutrition in our food, convenience and price usually come first. No need to worry because we are here to help! Read below to find out the key facts about the salt in your food.
Salt is an important part of our diet, however too much can have a negative effect on our health. Salt does not just come from the amount we sprinkle on our food, it's everywhere! It's important to be aware of foods high in salt and looking at the nutritional information on food packaging so you know how much you are consuming each day.
We look forward to seeing all of you again in September and remember to stay salt savvy!
