    A study by researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) , Stanford University and Columbia University shows that even a【C6】________decrease in daily salt intake (SEA) can lead to dramatic health benefits. The authors【C7】________an annual drop of as many as 120, 000 cases of heart disease, 66, 000【C8】________of stroke and 99, 000 heart attacks【C9】________by high blood pressure after a 3-g-per-day reduction in salt.
    The advantages, not surprisingly, were greater for African Americans, who are more likely to【C10】________high blood pressure than other ethnic groups, and for the elderly, since blood vessels stiffen with age, which can lead to higher blood pressure.

    The team conducted a computer-based analysis to determine the【C13】________of a 3-g-per-day reduction in salt intake on rates of heart disease and death. They also calculated the cost savings emerging from the amount of disease that would be【C14】________because of lower blood pressure. The conclusion; by cutting salt intake nationwide, the U. S. could save $ 10 billion to $ 24 billion【C15】________in health care costs.
