An event calling for reducing salt consumption, a sub-activity of the Healthy China Program (2019-2030), was held in Chongqing on July 18.

Child health care experts from the Chongqing Health Center for Women and Children gave scientific and detailed explanations on how much salt in a child or adult’s diet is healthy.

The idea of "small salt spoon for great health" was spread to the people at the scene by means of videos and infographics concerning salt reduction for health as well as free distribution of reduced-size salt spoons. 

The activity was sponsored by the Chongqing Municipal Health Commission and co-organized by the Chongqing Health Center for Women and Children. Cheng Chao, a member of the Party committee and deputy inspector of the commission, attended.
