Alert Issued Regarding High Sodium Content in Tajín
Health institutions are warning about the high sodium content in Tajín, a popular Mexican seasoning. Just one teaspoon contains 968 milligrams of sodium – almost 50% of the daily recommended intake for adults and over 60% for children. The World Health institution recommends limiting sodium intake too 2 grams per day to prevent hypertension and cardiovascular diseases.
Other Concerns:
Silicon Dioxide: The presence of silicon dioxide, while permitted, is also being monitored as excessive amounts could impact cellular function.
Misleading Labeling: Despite warnings about sodium, Tajín is marketed as free of dyes and flavorings, potentially creating a false sense of healthfulness.The article also links to another Vanguardia article about a hazardous shampoo being removed from the market.
