According to foreign media reports, a new study published from 2010 to 2010 pointed out the potential health and economic impact of the salt limit policy proposed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on workers in the food industry. Excessive salt intake can lead to increased wind power in people with cardiovascular disease. Globally, more than 1.5 million cardiovascular disease-related deaths each year can be attributed to excessive salt intake.

At the same time, the World Health Organization recommends that reducing salt intake is the "best option" to prevent cardiovascular disease (CVD). In 2016, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) formulated a salt limit policy for the food industry to reduce the salt content in processed foods.

Previous studies have shown that for the entire population, 100% compliance with the FDA salt limit policy for 10 years is the best solution, which can prevent about 450000 CVD cases within 20 years, get 2 million QALYs and save about $40 billion in subsidies.

The new study examines the impact of policies on the food industry itself to determine the cost-effectiveness of achieving these draft salt targets.

From the perspective of food system workers for more than 20 years from 2017 to 2036, the team simulated the health and economic effects of implementing FDA policies for 2 years and 10 years.

They found that the benefits of implementing FDA salt restrictions could be extended to food companies and food system workers, and that the total value of health benefits and cost savings associated with CVD would be greater than the cost of government and industry reconstruction.

The researchers also found that the implementation of a long-term salt reduction policy could generate health benefits of about 180,000 QALYs over 20 years and save about $5.2 billion in health costs.

Since many government welfare policies may occur to individuals over the age of 65 or to the uninsured, these health subsidy funds will be shared by individuals, industries and governments.
