Research involving 500,000 Britons reveals link to earlier death for those who always season their meals
Adding salt to meals at the table is linked to an earlier death, according to a study of 500,000 middle-aged Britons.
Researchers found that always adding salt to food knocks more than two years off life expectancy for men and one-and-a-half years for women. This does not include seasoning during the cooking process.
