abstracts

 

Salt has been the focus at some high profile conferences. Available here are abstracts of some of the papers presented by experts.

The ‘Salt & Health Forum’ was held in Paris in summer 2007. The event was organised by EuSalt, the European association of salt producers, with the objective of reviewing the relationship between salt consumption and health. The list of academics lining up to defend salt at the conference, in May 2007, included four academics who demonstrated that salt is vital for us by each covering a different aspect of its importance. Click on the names below to read abstracts of the lectures.

Dr David A. McCarron (USA) - Importance of Nutrient Intake on Blood Pressure, Salt Sensitivity, and Health Outcomes.

Professor Jens Titze (Germany) - Response of the body to changes in salt intake.

Professor Tilman B. Drüeke (France) - Man needs salt to survive.

Professor Niels Graudal (Denmark) - Effect of salt intake on blood pressure and cardiovascular outcome: critical evaluation of reported trials and meta-analyses.
