In commemoration of Salt Awareness Week 2026, the Centre for Communication and Social Impact, alongside other partners, supported a street awareness campaign to educate the public on the importance of reducing salt intake.
The team also educated the public on healthier alternatives to excessive salt and seasoning cube usage. In addition, they highlighted that large amounts of hidden salt are found in many commonly consumed foods such as bread, noodles, packaged and other processed foods.
Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) remain a major public health challenge in Nigeria, and the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare continues to advocate for increased public awareness to help Nigerians make healthier food choices.

Salt is essential for life. It helps our bodies maintain fluid balance, supports muscle movement, and keeps our nerves functioning properly.
Without it, the body simply can’t work the way it should.
But here’s the truth 👉🏽 salt is not the enemy, too much of it is❗️
When consumed in excess over time, salt can increase the risk of serious health challenges like high blood pressure, heart disease, and kidney problems.
⚠️ The key is balance !
Enjoy your meals, but be mindful of how much salt you add or consume, especially from processed foods
A little salt keeps you healthy.
Too much can harm you.
Choose wisely !
✨ Let your health guide your taste.
