Brief description Reducing premature death from cardiovascular disease is a health priority and reducing dietary salt is vital to achieve this. Most dietary salt is in processed foods and non-government organisations (NGOs) have long advocated for less salty foods. Little is known about why some companies sell very salty foods compared to others. This research considers the influence of NGOs on the behaviour of food companies and the respective reformulation strategies, and seeks to find out why companies respond differently.
