Confusion over food salt content

Just a related follow-up piece re: an earlier one on the healthy food suggestions of the hos at Rodale, Prevention Magazine and MSNBC.
"Parents are confused over the salt content of foods and the dangers of eating too much salt, research shows.

Few of the 2,000 polled by Consensus Action on Salt and Health knew popular sweet foods can contain more salt than savoury snacks associated with salt.

And fewer than a fifth were aware that high salt consumption had been linked to osteoporosis and worsening asthma."

Good to see that our media and crooked (IMHO) health "advocates" are out there watching our backs.
