News: CASH launches National Salt Awareness Week 2015

CASH urged families to cut down on the amount of salt they eat since dietary habits in childhood can influence eating patterns later in life. CASH said the latest figures from the National Diet and Nutrition Survey show children aged 4-18 years are currently consuming more salt than the recommendations set by the government's Scientific Advisory Committee on Nutrition in 2003.
