This is encouraging news!

Mars Food, a popular brand of foods who manufactures Uncle Ben’s rice products, pledged to lower the sodium content in its processed foods by an average of 20 percent by 2021″. It also made a public push to the FDA to bring more awareness to the issue. 
This is big news because there is so much salt in prepackage foods and when big food companies, such as Mars Inc, makes a big announcement to say HEY THERE IS A PROBLEM HERE!, that’s just awesome. 
Salt is consumed in too high of quantities in the US and it leads to high blood pressure, which can lead to heart disease and stroke. 
With a devoted effort and action steps, we can change the forecast of the American diet together.
