  • A study in Peru of community-wide implementation of the use of salt substitution strengthens the evidence for its use as a public-health strategy to reduce blood pressure and, thus, chronic disease risk.

  • A report has suggested a J-shaped association between estimated sodium excretion and cardiovascular risk. However, because spot urinary sodium does not reflect daily salt intake, the results from this study do not change the strong evidence showing that a modest reduction in salt intake has major beneficial effects on health.

  • A recent study suggests that salt reduction should be confined to hypertensive individuals with high salt intake. However, this study has serious methodological issues and its findings should therefore not challenge the strong evidence supporting the benefits of salt reduction for the general population.

  • Reduction in salt consumption has long been recommended to lower blood pressure (BP) and the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). A linear relationship between salt intake and CVD risk has recently been challenged in some cohort studies; however, methodological issues exist with these studies. In this Review, He and MacGregor discuss the relationship between salt intake, BP, and CVD risk, and describe the benefits and challenges of reducing the population intake of salt.
