Abstract in brief

  • The study found that people who regularly add salt to their food have a higher risk (up to 24%) of developing sleep apnea compared to those who never or rarely add salt.
  • Data from over 480,000 UK adults showed that adding salt to foods was linked to an increased incidence of sleep apnea over a median follow-up of about 12 years.
  • The results suggest that reducing salt intake could be beneficial in preventing sleep apnea, highlighting the importance of salt reduction programs for public health.]

Obstructive sleep apnoea can cause severe tiredness but is also linked to high BP, heart attack, stroke & type 2 diabetes. Large new study suggests adding salt to your food may be another risk factor - another reason to limit salt. https://t.co/KC9Sm9sQKT https://t.co/XRqB5QhZvJ
