Like sugar, salt causes many diseases that can easily be avoided with better diet. However, with the gene variation people who crave salt will have a biological advantage on top of new eating habits to help them change the amount of salt they consume.

I think it is very interesting and a great idea that they are trying to find ways to control the consumption of sodium. A lot of sodium is not good for a person therefore if there is a way that makes people not want to eat salty things it is a good thing. It could even be beneficial for people that are overweight.

It is so odd that people with the variation avoid broccoli and other vegetables. Could the gene be a result of their ancestors' diet or does it derive from something else? I wonder if there will be more studies done on this variation. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05931401234359971826noreply@blogger.com
