Restaurants offering 'child' set menus include a starter, main, dessert & drink for an attractive price, but they can contribute to excessive consumption of salt, sugars and saturated fat.

Yesterday was #strokepreventionday
It is vital to keep our salt intake below 6g/day (just 1 tsp!) to help reduce high blood pressure which can lead to stroke
We are now making more soups & stews but be careful with stock cubes, some are more salty than you think!

We all deserve to know what is in our food - restaurants, cafes and takeaways should have nutrition information on menus to help us find the healthier option. Until that is possible, ask the chef for #LessSaltPlease! #SaltAwarenessWeek bit.ly/36J0OQm

Starting today until Sunday is World #SaltAwarenessWeek which we will be posting about here on Twitter. We will tell you about our research on hypertension and healthy living choices and why #LessSaltPlease is so important.
When eating outside the home, food tends to come in larger portions with higher levels of salt, sugar and saturated fat than food we cook at home. Ask the waiter or the chef for #LessSaltPlease! #saltawarenessweek bit.ly/36J0OQm
