Hey you, yeah, YOU with the salt lick, it’s time for a little perspective. The average American, age 2 and up, eats 3,500 mg of sodium a day—that’s 1,200 mg more than the FDA's recommendation of 2,300 mg for healthy adults.
Sodium does more than just bloat you—although, it could be the reason why your jeans are feeling a bit too snug these days. It’s behind a litany of health problems like high blood pressure, stroke, and hardened arteries.
You could save your arteries and your skinny jeans by avoiding the 10 Saltiest Foods in America:
10. Chili’s Boneless Buffalo Chicken Salad: 3,730 mg sodium
9. Cheesecake Factory Sunrise Fiesta Burrito: 4,600 mg sodium
8. Chili's Chicken Crispers - Honey Chipotle Style: 4,910 mg sodium, and 81 grams of fat!
