I'm 22 and my resting heart rate is 112. Is this something I should be worried about? I haven't had any cholesterol or high blood pressure issues, and there aren't any heart problems in my past either.

I'm worried about my blood pressure and want to make sure I'm using the right type of salt. Is rock salt a good option for someone with high blood pressure? And how much salt should I really be consuming each day to stay healthy?

For people with high blood pressure, it is recommended to use iodized salt with reduced sodium content. Rock salt, also known as Himalayan pink salt, is not recommended for individuals with high blood pressure due to its high sodium content. The recommended daily intake of salt for adults is about 5 grams, which is approximately one teaspoon. It is important to monitor your salt intake to help manage high blood pressure.
