You are quite correct Garnet, that's all the research shows, no effect on normal blood pressure, and some have found that reducing salt increases mortality from heart attacks http://www.saltinstitute.org/28.html . Others claim that if you drink enough water you can take as much salt as you like, and that raised BP is a symptom of dehydration http://www.watercure.com/cure8.htm . Others claim that we are all deficient in real, unprocessed salt http://www.shirleys-wellness-cafe.com/salt.htm . Remember that for every expert, there is an equal and opposite expert ;-)
