This is my second video in my new in-depth series on the sodium “controversy.” See the first one at High Blood Pressure May Be a Choice (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/high-....

More on hypertension in How to Prevent High Blood Pressure with Diet (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-t...) and How to Treat High Blood Pressure with Diet (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-t.... What if you already eat healthy and still can’t get your pressures down? Try adding hibiscus tea (Hibiscus Tea vs. Plant-Based Diets for Hypertension http://nutritionfacts.org/video/hibis...) and ground flax seeds (Flax Seeds for Hypertension http://nutritionfacts.org/video/flax-...) to your diet. And make sure you’re exercising regularly (Longer Life Within Walking Distance http://nutritionfacts.org/video/longe....

If you’re surprised about industry tactics to distort the balance of evidence, here’s a few other poignant examples:
• The McGovern Report (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-m...)
• Big Sugar Takes on the World Health Organization (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/big-s...)
• Who Determines if Food Additives are Safe? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/who-d...)
• Who Says Eggs Aren’t Healthy or Safe? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/who-s...)
• Collaboration with the New Vectors of Disease (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/colla...)
• Food Industry Funded Research Bias (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/food-...)

Lots more salt videos to come!
