Which corporations funded the bad salt science you failed to provide any reference to? I can find oodles of peer reviewed science that says excess salt contributes to coronary disease and strokes.

Which corporations funded the bad fat science you failed to provide any reference to? I can find oodles of peer reviewed science that says excess fat contributes to coronary disease, obesity and cancer.

Bye bye nonsense and disinformation.

In some individuals, it doesn't affect every person the same. There are people who are completely immune to salt, including in ridiculous amounts.

Of course the average will still show an increase in blood pressure, but it's like a percentage was affected by salt and another group was not, it's a bimodal distribution
