How much salt do pork and pork products contain?
While lean pork is naturally low in salt, pork products and processed meat generally contain a higher amount. There are guidelines in place for producers to cut down on the salt levels used in processed meat products but to be sure how much you are eating check the food labels for salt content. As a guide more than 1.25g of salt per 100g is considered a lot, while 0.25g per 100g is a little.
