Should I be eating more salt or less?

Should I be eating more salt or less?

It's one of the most confusing nutrition debates – should you be eating more salt or less? The answer might surprise you, because it depends on your lifestyle. If you're cooking from scratch or you're very active the advice is very different than if ultra-processed foods are part of your diet. Liz explains why salt isn't the enemy, the surprising signs that reveal whether you're getting too much or too little, and why drinking plenty of water might not be hydrating you properly at all.
