Dr. R. Vadivelu, Cardiologist, Velammal Medical College Hospital, Madurai says, “Salt and sugar are the two white poisons; especially for those with heart disease or at risk of heart disease. Indians adore salt in their dishes. It is a well known fact that high salt intake causes high blood pressure which then causes increased risk of stroke, heart attack, kidney failure and eye problems. In patients with high blood pressure, a lower salt intake will help control the condition with fewer medications.
In a survey published by IFPRI, it is expected that in #India, the average temperature might increase by 2.4 to 4.4 degrees Celsius by the year 2100 and #heatwaves might either double or quadruple by that time leading to an increase in vector-borne diseases.
