 'Dr DiNicolantonio takes us away from hype and hyperbole to a
place of rationality as it relates to salt. This extensively researched
text lets us finally erase the guilt all of us felt when catering to our
desire for this important mineral.' David Perlmutter, MD, bestselling
author of Grain Brain and The Grain Brain Whole Life Plan

A leading cardiovascular research scientist upends the low-salt

myth, proving that salt may be one solution to - rather than a cause
of - the chronic disease crisis.

We've all heard the recommendation: no more than a teaspoon of

salt a day for a healthy heart. But there's one big problem with this:
the majority of us don't need to watch our salt. For most, salt
protects against a host of aliments, including internal starvation,
insulin resistance, diabetes and heart disease - not to mention, it
tastes great. Dr DiNicolantonio reveals the eye-opening story, a
never-been-told, century-spanning drama of competing egos and
interests, of how salt became unfairly demonised. (The real culprit?
Another white crystal - sugar).

Sure to change the conversation about this historically treasured

substance, The Salt Fix elegantly weaves research into a fascinating
new understanding of salt's essential role in your health and what
happens when you aren't getting enough.

Dr DiNicolantonio shows how eating the right amount of this

essential mineral will help you beat sugar cravings, achieve weight
loss, improve athletic performance, increase fertility and thrive with
a healthy heart. Finally, he offers a transformative six-step
programme for re-calibrating your innate salt thermostat so that you
can simply listen to your cravings to achieve your ideal salt intake.
