Eating raw salt in food can be dangerous if not changed

The Dhaka Times Desk Many people have the habit of eating salt with rice. However, the doctor has warned that this practice is not healthy at all. Regular consumption of salt on rice leaves can cause various diseases.

Bengalis have a close relationship with rice. A day without rice makes life miserable. So Bengalis look for rice everywhere. But not only rice can be eaten, curry must be kept with it. Also many people like to eat salt on rice leaves. No matter how much salt there is in the curry, if you don't add a little salt to the rice separately, you don't want their food to be soggy.

Many people have the habit of adding salt separately to food. Apart from rice, they also like to spread salt separately on other food. For them, salt is arranged in advance on the table of restaurant or event house.

Do you have this habit? If the answer is yes, then beware from today. According to Dr Ashish Mitra, a prominent medicine expert in Kolkata, eating raw salt is not a healthy habit at all. This can cause various problems. So people of any age should give up the habit of eating salt.

Eating salt will increase blood pressure

Dr. Mitra said that salt actually contains sodium. Too much of this mineral in the body is not good at all. High sodium levels in the body can cause hardening of the blood vessels. Due to which it cannot contract or expand normally during blood flow. Due to this basically the blood pressure increases. High blood pressure is a silent killer. This disease creates complications in the body similar to slow poisoning. Various ailments then follow.

There is no use in eating a bit of salt

Many people think that beet salt or seandhav salt does not do much harm. But this idea is 100 percent wrong said Dr. Mitra. According to him, this type of salt is also a source of sodium. So eating beet salt or seandhav salt can cause problems. There is also a risk of getting affected by all the above diseases. Therefore, any type of salt should not be consumed in excess. Not as much as you don't eat, you have to eat just as much. Exaggeration will cause danger.

How much salt can be eaten per day?

In response to this question, Dr. Mitra said, in this case, a person can eat 4 to 7 grams of salt a day. But if you want to measure salt like this, you have to go to a gold shop. So salt cannot be consumed by measuring such grams. But there is an easy way to eat salt in moderation. That is, the small spoon available for eating ice cream must be collected. This spoon contains approximately 4 to 7 grams of salt. And that's your whole day's logistics. You can add just so much salt to the food of the day.

Low salt can last

Currently low salt salt is available in the market from various companies. This type of salt is very low in sodium. Due to which the risk of problems can be reduced to some extent. So if you want to eat raw salt occasionally, you can eat this salt. However, eating this salt regularly is not good. Dr. Mitra said that it also damages the body. So you must be careful while using this low salt. Source: This time.
