Consensus Action on Salt & Health
Consensus Action on Salt and Health (CASH) is a group of specialists concerned with salt and its effects on health. It is successfully working to reach a consensus with the food industry and Government over the harmful effects of a high salt diet, and bring about a reduction in the amount of salt in processed foods as well as salt added to cooking, and the table. CASH is supported by 22 expert scientific members. Please click here for a copy of the list.
CASH runs National Salt Awareness Week at the end of January each year which receives widespread media coverage.
