[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 3302294, member: 56035"] [B]Nine out of ten kids eat too much salt.[/B] And high salt intake is linked to high blood pressure, even in children, which can lead to heart disease and stroke later in life. So, I need your help to stop the Trump administration from rolling back lifesaving policies that reduce salt in meals for school children. We have until January 29th to oppose this move. So, we must act fast. The Trump administration is caving in to the food lobby by proposing to delay for years USDA rules to reduce salt in school foods. Your support today will help CSPI keep the pressure on the administration to carry out the implementation of vital health regulations—not delay or weaken them. CSPI has fought for decades to protect the public from Big Food’s insatiable desire to saturate our food with salt. A three-year delay would mean that American children, on average, would swallow 84 more teaspoons of salt over the course of the three-year delay. Schools are already showing terrific progress in providing children with healthier meals with less salt, more whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, and no trans fat. They’re also getting rid of most soda and junk food. This is why we must prevent the Trump administration from halting all that progress. Our children deserve better!
