Do you seriously not understand that this writer is simply reporting the data that researchers have found? It's not just her opinion that she came up with.
Do you know what a meta-analysis is? It's a comprehensive compilation of dozens of research papers on a specific topic. It's considered the gold standard of evidence in science.
So it's not your doctor's opinion vs this journalist's opinion, or my opinion. It's what your doctor has been told vs the data compiled by thousands of scientists who have committed their careers to studying this specific subject.

Yes darth, those are the guidelines we're referring to 
The point is that they were not based on reliable data. Which has been the case numerous times in medicine.

Seriously, what are you babbling about? I would say I will wait around for you to quote me where I said otherwise, but it wouldn't be worth it, because I never did such a thing.
Hope you didn't hurt your hand knocking the shite out of that straw man though.

All because of one article you read on the internet. Now suddenly years of medical and scientific study is now wrong in your eyes.
Well, that settles it. You read it on the internet so it's got to be true. Any why? Because science. It says so right there in the article. They got science. And you can't argue with science. Right?

Darth is more accustomed to copy/pasting articles to pass off as his own posts than he is to reading them.

OP is wrong. But even worse than that, he'll never admit or realize that he's wrong. Nothing can overcome his confirmation bias. In reality, the evidence supporting salt as a contributor to high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, etc. is much greater and more convincing than the evidence against it.
quote:Not true at all. The evidence is overwhelming actually.
how little evidence there is of a connection between salt and hypertension, and the related heart diseases

Can you post the actual meta-analysis
quote:

It was a meta-analysis of 7 studies and 6,250 subjects.
You're overstating what the meta-analysis actually said based on the article.
Also, what about strokes?

You could salt your food as much as you want, it's processed food that gets you. All that sodium and added sugar is terrible for you.

But you don't understand. There was an article. And it was on the internet. And they said science. They have science. Don't you know when you read it on the internet and it says science then its got to be true?
