We’ve all heard: “Too much salt causes high blood pressure.” But here’s the catch—salt might not be the sole villain. Recent studies suggest it’s the balance of sodium and potassium that matters most. Diets rich in processed food (high sodium, low potassium) harm health. But diets with natural salt + high potassium foods (bananas, sweet potatoes, spinach) may not increase blood pressure at all. I swapped processed snacks for fruit and veggies, but didn’t cut salt from home cooking. My blood pressure dropped 8 points in 2 months. Salt wasn’t the enemy—junk food was. Maybe it’s time to stop demonizing salt, and start blaming ultra-processed foods instead. #FoodFacts #HealthMyths #Nutrition
