Salty Snag Scandal

A salty snag scandal has emerged as health experts slam the high levels of sodium in processed meats.

Over 1.1 billion sausages are consumed annually by Australians and nutritionist Clare Farrand says the excess salt found in such meats are “directly linked to high blood pressure, which increase the risk of heart attack, kidney disease and stroke.”

So you may want to reconsider your next trip to a sausage sizzle as one sausage in bread with barbeque sauce contains 58% of your recommended daily salt intake.
