Reducing salt consumption in Chinese populations through behaviour change techniques

Context

WHO recommends a daily max of 5g of salt per day. However, individuals in China almost triple this, eating 12-14g a day.

Salt consumption is a leading factor in high blood pressure (HBP). HBP causes 40% of deaths and 23% of all healthcare costs in China. China has identified this and has even set policy to try reduce usage to 5g by 2030. This project aims to answer "How might we reduce salt consumption in China?".

Understanding the problem

Through extensive secondary research it was learnt that unlike western diets (where most salt intake comes from processed foods) - Chinese salt intake comes mostly from home cooking. I conducted questionnaires on salt usage in cooking to support this data.

Interviews with experts

Interviews with an Action on Salt China research fellow and food behaviour intervention experts provided invaluable data-driven insights for the project.

The COM-B model, immediate feedback, and "locus of control" were all suggested as methods for changing user behaviours.

Key insights & opportunities

01

Salt consumption in Chinese populations is too high

Chinese populations tend to consume salt in excess, leading to significant health risks such as high blood pressure and cardiovascular diseases.

02

Difficulty controlling salt in family-style meals

Home-cooked “family style” meals (where dishes are shared) make controlling salt intake more difficult when compared to more westernised "portioned" meals.

03

Elders tend to be in charge of cooking

Older populations are usually in charge of cooking, and thus are likely to make up a larger percentage of the target users.

04

Children influence elders more heavily

Elders are more likely to listen to salt reduction when asked by children.

05

Measuring salt is tedious during hectic cooking

During busy cooking sessions, precisely measuring salt can be seen as time-consuming and inconvenient, leading to estimations that often result in excessive salt use.

06

Cooking salt and soy sauce are main sources of salt intake

Research shows that salt added during cooking and soy sauce are the main sources of salt in Chinese populations.

07

Limited kitchen space in urban Chinese homes

Chinese households in cities frequently have constrained kitchen spaces, which can impact cooking habits. Compactness and efficient use of space is essential for the solution.

One concept emerged as the top choice: the salt and sauce dispenser that delivers set amounts of salt when actuated.

Users also provided additional feedback such as the need for a simple interface and a reduced physical footprint. Taking this into account, the concept was then iterated upon again and made into 2 distinct concepts.

Another round of development

The concept was further refined based on feedback received from the previous selection process.

The following changes were implemented:

01

Reduction in size

The original handle on the salt dispenser was too large.

The solution was to change the grip design. This change also moved the centre of gravity to below the users hand, reducing strain which is important for elderly users.

02

Simplification of measuring

The use of digital scales in the countertop base to weigh and measure salt usage was controversial. This design choice caused confusion, as users had to place the salt dispenser back on the base before the amount of salt used was updated on the digital display.

To address this, the scales were removed, and the system now counts the number of actuations for both the salt and soy sauce dispensers. This provides instant feedback on salt usage, which is relayed wirelessly to the base.

03

Soy sauce control and limitation

The soy sauce dispenser should offer better control over the amount poured, rather than allowing continuous pouring.

This was achieved by introducing a pump system, enabling users to dispense measured shots.

04

Aesthetic adjustment

Aesthetics of the product also changed, taking inspiration from kitchenware / ceramic detailing.

05

App development

The app was further developed to include features that allow users to set their own goals and provide better visualisation of salt consumption per person when cooking multiple dishes.

Commercial consideration

The salt dispenser will be sold separately from the soy dispenser and base (sold together). This allows the salt dispenser to act as a "gateway" for users sceptical about reducing salt intake, enabling them to try the Dium concept at a lower cost. If convinced, users can upgrade to the full set.

The Dium base and soy dispenser also caters to typically older users who prefer not to use a smartphone for tracking daily salt consumption.
