Saturated fats can negatively impact your health in multiple ways, raising the risk of heart disease due to increased LDL cholesterol according to insights from MedlinePlus. Excessive sodium intake can lead to high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke, according to the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. The human body requires a modest amount of sodium for supporting muscle functions, maintaining the proper balance of water and minerals, and assisting nerve impulses. The optimal daily sodium intake for mitigating chronic diseases is 2,300 milligrams. Regrettably, the majority of Americans surpass this limit, averaging around 3,400 milligrams per day.
