Why+has+salt+not+been+included+in+Tot+It+Up%3F

Tot It Up has been designed to give parents guidance on how to offer a balance of the five food groups to their toddlers. Salt is an ingredient or additive, not a food, and is therefore not listed within any food group. Advice on choosing foods that are low in salt for toddlers is outside the remit of this resource. Our Factsheets ‘How to choose nutritious fresh and convenience foods’ and ‘Understanding food labels’ can be used in conjunction with this resource.
