Overview

This giant soup can makes a big impression about the connection between excess sodium consumption and artery damage by revealing that even foods considered to be healthy can be high in sodium. This large (8" x 13") soup can contains a giant saltshaker representing the average yearly sodium intake for most people. Also features two large artery models—one healthy and one diseased—that highlight how excess sodium intake can increase blood pressure and the likelihood of other major cardiovascular issues. Great to raise awareness about the excess salt in many processed foods and to supplement lessons in heart health.
