Abstract in brief

The study estimates that reducing sodium intake in Mexico could significantly decrease deaths caused by cardiovascular diseases, which are the leading cause of death there, with current intake levels exceeding WHO recommendations.
Using the PRIME model, the study projects that following WHO guidelines could prevent around 27,700 CVD deaths, with more modest reductions (30% or 10%) still saving thousands of lives.
The most affected types of CVD by sodium reduction include ischemic heart disease, hypertensive disease, and stroke, highlighting the potential impact of policy changes to lower salt consumption.]
