A new revelation has been made about the terrible side effects of salt intake which many people do not know about.

major factors contributing to high blood pressure and other related
diseases.
He explained that some Nigerians had high pressure blood and other
related diseases because they did not take adequate care of their
health.
He also advised Nigerians of the age of 40 and above to imbibe the culture of regular check up for detection diseases.
”It will be difficult to prescribe drugs and diet for patients
who do not know that they have high blood pressure and other related
diseases,” he said.

work to pump blood.
