salt

Pets need small amounts of sodium, but excess salt strains the kidneys and heart. If salt appears near the top of the ingredient list (indicating higher content), CKD or heart disease pets should be especially careful.

Other common names: sodium chloride, sea salt, rock salt, table salt, 食鹽, 鹽, 氯化鈉, 岩鹽, 海鹽, 食塩, 塩化ナトリウム
