通过开展减盐行动控制我国心血管疾病流行的可行性与必要性

The feasibility and necessity of controlling the prevalence of cardiovascular disease in China by launching salt reducing action

本研究通过分析我国居民食盐摄入量水平及变化趋势,以及食盐与高血压等心血管疾病的相关性,探讨在我国通过减少食盐摄入控制心血管疾病流行的可行性和必要性。1982—2002年,我国居民食盐摄入量一直远远高于世界卫生组织推荐摄入标准;与世界其它国家相比,我国居民食盐摄入也处于相对较高水平。食盐摄入量与高血压等心血管疾病密切相关,而心血管疾病导致了我国沉重的经济负担。因此,目前在我国通过开展减盐行动控制心血管疾病十分必要,应该以准确掌握摄入水平、争取食品生产加工企业参与、食盐替代品研究推广等可行性措施为重点做好减盐工作。

This paper analyzes the salt intake level and trend in Chinese civilization as well as the correlation between salt and cardiovascular disease （CVD） such as hypertension,and explores the necessity and feasibility of controlling CVD by reducing salt intake. The salt intake level since 1982 to 2002 was always significant higher than WHO criteria,and it was relatively higher comparing with other countries. The occurrence of CVD is closely related to salt intake and CVD results in a heavy economic burden in China. It is necessary to launch salt reducing action and focus on feasibility measurement such as finding out the intake amount accurately,involving food production and processing enterprises to participate in,studying and promoting the salt alternatives,and so on.
