Although it has been stated that excess salt intake by diet may be a risk for insulin resistance and obesity development, the mechanisms for how it creates this effect are not yet clearly explained. The potential mechanisms of effect include the fact that excess salt intake with the diet causes a positive energy balance by encouraging the consumption of sugar beverages and fatty foods. Excessive intake of sodium, especially in children, has been shown to increase the consumption of sweetened drinks, which have a significant contribution to dietary energy, as a cause of thirst. Moreover, it has been that the salt content increases the flavor of the nutrients, making them appetite, and as a result, reducing saturation, stimulates energy consumption and excess eating. The widespread use of oil and salt as appetite stimulating compounds in high-energy foods indicates that there is a possible relationship between salt consumption and diet and fat consumption. This collection aims to provide a different perspective on public health policies aimed at reducing salt intake, by studying the effects of high salt intake on nutritional preferences and consumption.
