The point is (at least to me), all things in moderation.
Not long before my father died they had to put him in the hospital for a few days due to dehydration and other issues where his blood panels were way out of whack. The doctor asked him to describe his daily eating. Usually a cold cut sandwich for lunch and a Stouffers entree for dinner. As soon as he stopped that routine the dehydration ended and his blood panels got back to normal. It didn't mean never eat cold cuts, and it didn't mean never eat Stouffers. Just not as a steady died.
Even tonight I'm planning on just having a bowl of soup for dinner. That will be 40% of a day's sodium...and the can is labeled "heart healthy".

Eaten with a nice small baguette warmed and slathered with (real) butter …
Only the WHO would take such an outlandish position based upon a meta-analysis of 600 separate studies.
The meta-analysis is so inaccurate a means of research that most responsible scientific agencies won't accept it as definitive work. (Trend analysis? Sure, go ahead and use it.) But definitive? Nope. By design it has too many internal/external validity issues for it to be accurate.
Just more people who think they're smarter than us tying to tell us what to do. No doubt their research was funded by a grant... Gee, I wonder what the source of that grant was?
Every day it's something else causing cancer, heart disease, etc. Listen to the ads on TV for medicines and you wouldn't take any of them. One day coffee is good for you , the next day it will kill you. Stop already! People are living longer and longer, hell somethings gonna kill us!
my spam is OK tho right? I think it's mostly fresh and not processed, just natural goodness in a can with no other ingredients.
No … "Spam" is made by Hormel, which in the mid-80s foisted a terrible union busting … I have avoided all Hormel products as much as possible following that travesty ...
