Help to decrease cancer risk
High-salt diets have been linked to stomach cancer in specific studies. A meta-analysis of 76 research in over 6 million participants revealed that increasing salt intake by five grams per day, from high-salt processed foods, raises the risk of stomach cancer by 12 percent.
According to research, high-salt diets can harm the mucosal lining of your stomach, triggering inflammation and the development of H. Pylori germs, all of which might raise your chance of developing stomach cancer.
A diet low in sodium in processed foods and heavy on fruits and vegetables, however, is linked to a decreased risk of stomach cancer.
