Watch out - salt!
How to avoid the harm that salt does to our body
A renowned nutrition expert warns us against the underestimated dangers and explains how to escape the »salt trap«
Forget fats and sugars – salt does far more damage to our health. The recommended daily maximum intake is three grammes, but most of us consume considerably more. The consequences are alarming: high blood pressure, diabetes, sleep disturbance, weight gain, cataracts, premature ageing and decreased mental agility. Klaus Oberbeil sounds the warning bell: he reveals how easy it is to get addicted to salt, and how the food industry unscrupulously exploits this. He also illustrates the health risks of overconsumption, and explains who is particularly at risk. The good news is that food can be tasty without (too much) salt – and the author shows us how.
Klaus Oberbeil was born in 1935, is an expert on nutrition and writes health books that have all become bestsellers. His books have been translated into 17 languages and have sold more than two million copies worldwide. Oberbeil is well-known through radio and television, his medical editorial www.gesunde-familie.de supplies the print media with reports on health research. The author lives
in Aschau on Lake Chiemsee.
