Scientists warn this common food habit could be ageing your heart & brain faster. Here's who is most likely to do it

Salt consumption study: New research suggests that older men are more likely than women to add extra salt to their food. The study found that men living alone were particularly likely to have this habit, while those following diets to manage high blood pressure were less likely to reach for the saltshaker. Among women, salt-adding behaviour was linked to a wider range of lifestyle and dietary factors. The findings highlight how small changes in everyday eating habits could support better long-term health.
