    Salt is an essential condiment for many delicacies. Moderate table salt is also necessary for our body, and it is very important to choose the right amount. The intake of table salt recommended by the Chinese Nutrition Society does not exceed 6 grams per person per day, which is the amount of three salt scoops. However, there is currently a phenomenon of excessive salt in China, with a daily per capita intake of more than 12 grams, exceeding 1 times, some places are even higher.
