George first arrest of an idaho man plotting a deadly attack on churches in support of isis. The fbi director calls it a truly horrific plan. Chief justice correspondent Pierre Thomas has the latest. Good morning, pierre. Reporter george, good morning. The suspect was arrested on saturday just hours before the alleged planned assault on sunday. Authorities say he had picked a specific church where he would start his attack, set for the end of ramadan. This morning the fbi claims this 18yearold was on the verge of conducting a terror plot involving attacks on multiple churches in idaho. Alexander mercurio expressing his allegiance to isis. The plot involved a murderous rampage using knives and firearms to kill parishioners. He also planned to set the houses of worship on fire, going from church to church until he was killed by police. Its a plan eerily similar to that isis assault on that concert hall in moscow. Talked about using knives, fire and possibly weapons. And so the combination of all three if, in fact, he did launch that, had the possibility of harming a lot of people. Reporter according to criminal charges unsealed last night, mercurio had bought a number of items for his attacks including butane canisters for setting fires. And those charges are also on saturday he sent an audio file to an fbi informant that says in part im answering the call for the Islamic State for jihad and to kill. Charges against mercurio lay out a chilling plan where he would, quote, incapacitate his father, restrain him using handcuffs, steal his firearms to use for maximum casualties in his attack. Sources tell abc news his father had dozens of weapons including an ar15 style assault rifle. Mercurios arrest comes at a state of heightened alert by u. S. Law enforcement. Authorities have been concerned about rage ignited by the hamas war and late last week they sented out an urgent bulletin saying isis was trying to use the horrific attack in moscow to inspire people here to conduct attacks. Announcing this arrest last night we received statements from both the attorney general and the fbi director, both expressing deep concern, saying just how dangerous the threat environment is right now. Michael . Michael happy they were able to stop him. Thank you very much. Now the Severe Weather in the south. The storms could cause trouble for people trying to get home from watching the eclipse. Ginger is tracking the latest. Good morning, ginger. Ginger were grateful a lot of storms waited for after the eclipse. But it did make for tough driving especially if you were in texas, where hail was reported, more than 50 reports. The hail causing flash flooding in the streets there. Today were going to see more Severe Weather. We do see more hail in the forecast, but also damaging winds. Its kicking up an isolated tornado threat that becomes bigger. Austin, waco, into louisiana today but it doesnt stop, the overnight, we will see the potential for tornados going into tomorrow morning. We will likely be waking up tomorrow morning talking about watches. That will keep pushing east into southern mississippi and the florida panhandle. This is a big event with many tornados possible. In the next 36 hours. It is time to say, okay, where am i going to be . Do i have a shelter . Can i be close to that when a warning is issued . George lot of good advice, ginger. Thanks. The latest on Donald Trumps legal troubles with jack smith calling the Supreme Court to reject trumps claims of immunity as the former president tries some last ditch legal maneuvers to delay his manhattan trial on election interference. Aaron katersky is at the courthouse in downtown manhattan. Good morning, aaron. Reporter good morning. Were less than a week before former President Trump is to stand trial in new york. An Appeals Court already rejected one of his attempts to delay and is expected to take up another one a bit later today. Trumps attorneys would like to stop everything and move the case out of manhattan. They say there are too many potential jurors around here who have been exposed to pretrial negative publicity. Prosecutors say trump should have nothing to complain about though since much of the publicity is his own doing. He talks and posts about the case so much to weed out bias potential jurors will fill out a seven page questionnaire that asks whether or not theys been a trump rally and their feelings about how trump is being treated. Today, trump is going to ask again to delay the case and relax a gag order the judge imposed that stops him from attacking the judges family, prosecutors and witnesses. George, as you know, trump would like to push all of his criminal trials past the november election. So far one here in new york is the only one set to go on trial next week. George aaron, what can you tell us about the special counsel going to the Supreme Court . Reporter jack smith says theres nothing in american history, the constitution or even policy debate to suggest that a former president cannot be held criminally accountable. That no president has ever been prosecuted before. Its not because hes immuned. Jack smith said it reflects the unprecedented nature of trumps alleged conduct. George . George thanks. Bring in dan abrams. We are seeing all of these last minute maneuvers. Any chance of success . Very very small. At this point it seems clear this case is moving to trial. These issues have been litigated, addressed, and i think that the chance that this isnt going to begin monday is small. George monday the courthouse opens. What are you looking for . First thing is jury selection. Right . You heard aaron talking about the questions the jurors will be answering. Its not just big picture ones like, have you been to a trump rally . Its what media do you watch . Where do you get your information . There will be subtle questions that will tell lawyers a lot about these jurors. Thats going to be the most critical thing in this case. We can sit here and talk about all the legal issues, all the factual questions. But the most important question is going to be who is on that jury . And that will be number one. Then number two is going to be at the trial legal and factual. From a legal perspective, are they going to be able to demonstrate this falsification of Business Records was an effort to conceal another crime. In effect here, the election crimes that the prosecutors say were also committed even though they werent charged. Secondly factually, is the former president going to continue to deny he had a relationship with Stormy Daniels . I think hes going to. I think his position is still it didnt happen. George do you think hell have to take the stand . No, he doesnt have to take the stand. I would be surprised if he takes the stand. I know his team is talking about it. I would be very surprised if he does take the stand. Then again, classic legal case, right . You have to view this case through the legal and political prism. As a result, the typical rules that apply may not apply here. George dan abrams, thank you very much. Donald trump is under fire from all sides on abortion rights. The former president now says the issue should be for the states to decide. Members of his own party disagree. Democrats say he is back to the strictest bans on abortion. Rachel scott has the story. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Donald trump has made it clear this is all about politics. He has been trying to find a winning message on this issue. After months of floating the idea of a possible 15 Week National abortion ban, he now says the decision should be left up to the states, sparking backlash on both sides. This morning donald trump is facing criticism from his own party after declaring that the issue of abortion should be up to individual states. The states will determine by vote or legislation or perhaps both, and whatever they decide must be the law of the land in this case the law of the state. Reporter but as president , trump appointed three justices who supported overturning roe, and during his video announcement saying he is proudly the person responsible for the Supreme Courts decision. The Vice President firing back. One in three women of reproductive age now live in a state with an abortion ban. If he were to be put back in a position where he could sign off on a law, he would sign off on a National Abortion ban. Reporter the former president making it clear politics is at the heart of his decision, keenly aware abortion rights won in all six states where it has been on the ballot including conservative states like kansas, kentucky, ohio. You must follow your heart on this issue. Remember, you must also win elections. Reporter many on the right outraged that trump declined to endorse a National Abortion plan. His former Vice President mike pence calling his announcement a slap in the face to millions of pro life americans who voted for trump. And close ally senator graham saying he respectfully disagrees. President biden pointing out 21 states have banned or restricted access to abortion since the fall of roe v. Wade. Donald trump just endorsed every state ban on reproductive care nationwide. Reporter trump says he does support exceptions for rape, incest and to save the life of the mother. He did not say he also supports exceptions for health of the mother, george. George this does leave open a lot of questions about what donald trump would actually do if he were elected president again. Reporter george, it is notable that the former president did not say what he would do on this issue if he were to be elected, whether he would sign a National Abortion ban into law, or whether he supports access to medication abortion. Trump himself has been on all sides of this issue over the years, george. George what he did as president is what counts. Okay, rachel. Thank you very much. Michael . Michael now the scam targeting ez pass users. Scammers are using phoney Text Messages to try to get your money and information. Erielle reshef is here now with what you need to know. Good morning, erielle. Reporter good morning. Cant let your guard down for even a second. Drivers in 18 states from the east coast to midwest have ez pass as a way to pay tolls. Now scammers are targeting those who use that system. The pennsylvania Turnpike Commission reports thousands of its customers received bogus Text Messages warning of an Outstanding Balance directing them to click a link to a website to pay in order to avoid a late fee. But these texts are not from the Turnpike Commission. What should you do if you received one of these . Experts say ignore it and never click a link in an unfamiliar text message. If youre unsure go to the states official ez pass website and look up your own account. Authorities in pennsylvania say the ez pass system has not been hacked and these fake messages are just targeting random phone numbers. But toll agencies around the country are reporting similar scams in recent days. Rebecca . Rebecca were getting to a point where you just ignore any text message from an unknown number. Okay, erielle. Thank you. Now the economic warning as the head of the nations biggest bank and as house holds feel the pressure of inflation. Elizabeth schulze joins us. 8 Interest Rate could bes in americas future . Reporter thats right, rebecca. Good morning. This is an ominous warning from the ceo of jp morgan chase. Jamie diamond says Interest Rates could spike to 8 in the coming years. He cites high spending by the government and disruptions to global trade as reasons that inflation could stay higher for longer. The Federal Reserve has already raised Interest Rates to around 5. 5 to fend off stubbornly high inflation. While the prices we pay are not going up as much as they were three years ago, the typical American House hold is still spending 1,000 extra every month on the same goods and services because of inflation, with so many struggling to make ends meet. Jamie diamond has been warning about an impending recession for awhile. He admits that still has not happened. Guys . Rebecca its been happening for sometime. Hes been putting this out there. Okay elizabeth, thank you. Michael now to the march madness finale. University of connecticut huskies, theyre champions again. Uconn beat purdue for the first back to back title in 17 years.

Right now we are joined by back to back national champion, coach of the uconn huskies, coach dan hurley. Good morning, coach. Congratulations on the big win last night yeah, michael. You know what it feels like to get these big wins, man. That championship, you know, euphoric feeling. Its an incredible, what an incredible night. Have ten months of work to make it happen on one special monday night. Michael it definitely feels pretty good, i do know that. This is your second straight championship, uconns sixth win since 1999. Last night we saw it early. You came out last night. I got to ask you, how are you feeling this morning . Im still pretty the adrenalines still going, man. Ill tell ya. The night before a big game, its hard to sleep. And then, you know, the night of a game, its hard to get to bed cause that adrenaline doesnt go anywhere. Plus, you know, i downed a coffee right before i go out there. Im working on another coffee during the game. My energy level intensity is always high. Michael caffeine definitely helps. What you and your team have accomplished is even more impressive, given that you lost five of your eight top players from last years team that won a championship. So what was the key to this teams success . Well, you know, michael, we brought back a core of players that were very important players like fourth and fifth starters, first player off the bench. So players that were critical to the Championship Team had a chance to return to the team, become the big three, become the driving force behind the program. Kind of the face of things, donovan cligan, Tristan Newton. Just through Player Development of some guys in the program that didnt play last year, but played a big role this year, got better over the summer. You bring in a blue chip freshman in stef cassel, who was only on campus for probably eight months and is likely to go to the nba as a one and done. Then we were smart with going out and plucking a veteran player that fit us from a team standpoint in cam spencer. We picked up just the perfect transfer. We had the championship confidence of some returners. The new guys brought a fire and a desire of wanting to get their first championship. Michael you put together a perfect team, obviously. Going by your record, winning all these games by double digits. Your practices, theyre legendarily tough. But you turned it up even more this year. Howd you do that . I think im probably, you know i think im more of a football coach type of guy. [ laughter ] basketball, we got some seasons here. Not as tough as the football guys. Were old school, man. I think we recruit players whose families, you know, stress accountability, responsibility. Have those old school values. These kids are 19, 20, 21 years old. They dont got to play for me for 10, 12 years. Were trying to do a sprint together. Were trying to maximize this one, two, three Year Experience together and absolutely squeeze the lemons. Were just getting the right type of talented players to come in here, nba level talent. If a guy values winning and wants to be part of teams that win big things. Michael coach hurley, you have won the big thing two years in a row. Congratulations to you. Maybe theres a three peat there. We wont even talk about that now. Go get yourself some rest. You deserve it. Well see you soon. Thanks, coach. Yeah. I did like hearing that three peat. [ laughter ] start thinking about it. Michael all right. Thats news. You got it. All right there, coach. Have a great one. George . George all right. Coming up later, students are using ai for their homework, but is that cheating . This morning one question kids and parents should ask before using it.

He is accused of throwing a chair off a roof top bar in nashville narrowly avoiding police officers. Senior National Correspondent Steve Osunsami has details. Good morning, steve. Reporter good morning to you, george. This isnt like any other run ins with police. These are felony charges, which means possibly he could be seeing years in prison if convicted. Last night we left t reporter hes one of the most successful recording artists in the entire music industry. Morgan wallen this morning in another mug shot charged with three counts of felony Reckless Endangerment and misdemeanor Disorderly Conduct after police say he threw a chair six stories down from a roof top bar in nashville. Police say the chair landed three feet from two of their officers who were working below. Witnesses say they saw him pick up the chair, throw it over him, laughing after ward. He was booked and released early monday morning seen here moving between two umbrellas and waiting vehicle. He has not yet entered a plea. In a statement to abc news, one of wallens attorneys tells us he is cooperating fully with authorities. I cant love you more than my home town its not his first time in trouble. May of 2020 he was arrested and charged with public intoxication and Disorderly Conduct after getting kicked out of a nashville bar. Prosecutors later dropped the charges. Later that same year during the height of the pandemic, saturday night live dropped him as their musical guest after he was seen in tik tok videos ignoring covid precautions at the time. Out partying without a mask and kissing random women. Then in february of 2021 he was caught on video filmed by a neighbor using a racial slur while speaking to a friend after coming home from a night out. His label briefly suspended his contract, they wouldnt allow him at the bill board awarsd. Soon he was on you tube apologizing. The natural thing to do is to apologize further, just continue to apologize. Reporter he sat down with Michael Strahan following the incident that could have cost him his career.

George first look at the top stories and more. We start with the arrest of an idaho man on charges of planning to carry out deadly attacks on churches. The fbi director calls it truly a horrific plan. We want to go back to Pierre Thomas, good morning. Reporter george, good morning. The fbi claims the alleged plot was in its final stages and would have been tragic if carried out. This morning the fbi claims this 18yearold was on the verge of conducting terror plot involving attacks on multiple churches in idaho. Alexander mercurio, seen here knife in hand, expressing his allegiance to isis. The fbi said the plot involved a murderous rampage using knives and firearms. He also planned to set houses of worship on fire, going from church to church until he was killed by police. Its a plan eerily similar to that assault on that concert hall in moscow. He talked about using knives, fire and possibly weapons. And so the combination of all three is, in fact, if he did launch that, had the possibility of harming a lot of people. Reporter according to criminal charges unsealed last night, mercurio had bought a number of items for his attack, including butane canisters for setting fires. They say mercurio sent an audio file to an fbi informant that says in part, i am answering the call from jihad and to kill. Sources tell abc news his father had dozens of weapons including an ar15 style assault rifle. Officials continued to say this is perhaps the most dangerous threat environment since 9 11. Michael . Michael pierre, thank you for that. Were going to turn to sentencing day for the michigan parents found guilty after their son killed four students at his high school in 2021. Victims families are expected to share impact statements. Trevor ault is at the courthouse in pontiac, michigan. Good morning, trevor. Reporter good morning, michael. Convictions of these parents were historic so todays sentencing is unprecedented. James and Jennifer Crumbley have spent almost 2 1 2 years behind bars but are facing 15 years for their role in their sons school shooting. This morning the first parents held criminally responsible for their Childs School shooting now learning their sentences together. This verdict does not bring back their children, but it does mark a moment of accountability. Reporter james and Jennifer Crumbley were both convicted of four counts of unvoluntary manslaughter, one count for each victim, as the parents bought their son the gun he used and ignored signs of his declining mental health. State sentencing guidelines recommend they face a maximum of about seven years in prison. Prosecutors are recommending 10 to 15 years, saying the parents have shown a chilling lack of remorse. They could have prevented this shooting and saved these kids lives. Reporter James Crumbley is asking for time served. Jennifer asked to serve her sentence on house arrest at her lawyers guest home. She also tried walking back some of her testimony where she said this i have asked myself if i would have done anything differently. I wouldnt have. Reporter in court documents, she now says that is true without the benefit of hindsight that i have now, with the information i have now, of course my answer would be hugely different. Ahead of todays sentencing, the judge will hear impact statements from the families of the four victims, many of which were in court each day of the crumbleys trial. Its so important to empathize with the sympathy, holding both of them accountable for their insufficiencies. Reporter and the crumbleys son is serving life in prison without the possibility of parole. Even after todays sentencing hearing, there are still multiple lawsuits in the works against the School District for failing to prevent this shooting. Rebecca . Rebecca some potentially big precedents there. Thank you. We turn to the vaticans new statement on issues like surrogacy, abortion and more. James longman joins us with more on that. Good morning, james. Reporter good morning, rebecca. Pope francis has been accused of being too liberal and by others of not being liberal enough. This latest affirmation of catholic doctrine is reigniting that debate. The issues outlines the opposition to sex change surgery and to gender identity. They say anyone who chooses to change their sex that they were assigned with at birth risks essentially blaming god. They also on surrogacy they say it is a violation of woman and child. Last year pope francis did say transgender people would be welcome to be baptized in the church. Also opened the possibility for same sex unions to have the union blessed in the church. I think its safe to say hes tried to have a theme of forgiveness and tolerance. But this text shows the catholic doctrine is not changing. Guys . George thank you very much.

Becky worley is back with a deeper look at the technologys role in education and whether students should be using it for homework. Hey, becky. George, good morning. For students doing their homework using chat gpt or an image generator, thats cheating, right . Or is it . How does the use of this new technology in schools differ from our initial reactions to calculators or spell check or wikipedia . For students and educators the question, is it okay to use ai, has only one chance right now. Its complicated. Students copy and paste the response from chat gpt claiming it as their own work. It isnt a foreign language. Is Artificial Intelligence like chat gpt increasing cheating in school . Or is it helpful for learning . These High Schoolers from Headway School in oakland, california, say maybe both. You use chat gpt almost as a tutor . More or less. Not to ask it for an answer, which i think thats the problem, but rather to explain a concept. To understand the why rather than just the answer itself. Or if they get stuck on a Computer Science or math problem. I feel like when youre stuck and youve tried all these things, its valid to ask chat gpt. And naturally, once you ask it, youll understand why it was, the answer is the way it is. But some say kids turn to ai when theyre desperate. I think a lot of chat gpt comes from students being overwhelmed with school work. Dr. Pope of Stanford University has been surveying students about cheating for more than a decade. The fear was that chat gpt was going to unleash a flood of cheating behavior in students. But she says her data is not showing that increase, but adds that parents should still talk to kids about the technology. You want to make sure your student knows what the rules of the school are. How many of you know the schools policy on use of chat gpt for assignments . Nobody . You can use it sometimes. Sometimes. Usually the teachers will make it clear before the assignment. Some dont. Determining what constitutes cheating is tricky. Like youre assigned a paper and you ask chat gpt for help with the outline. Cheating . Not cheating . Or the paper you wrote is 200 words too long. You put that into chat gpt and say, help me cut this down to 1,000 words. Cheating . Not cheating . But dr. Pope has one simple metric. Is this going to be helpful for you, in terms of learning what it is youre supposed to learn today, or is it going to be harmful . Is i someone else doing the work and youre just pushing a button and not really putting in the effort . The kids know ai is here to stay. I think banning chat gpt would be ineffective and its much more helpful to integrate it into the curriculum an teach students how to use it effectively. True. Those kids primarily use chat gpt, but there are many ai tools that are in play. Google gemini, the homework helper called oddity ai, many others. But, george, we are just looking at the tip of the iceberg on this ai issue. George no question. Helpful versus harmful. How do parents help . Yeah. I mean, we talked to folks at chat gpt. They have a whole list of resources for parents and educators alike on their website. Parents need to get familiar with it themselves. That advice, does this help or hurt your learning . Youre so right, that really helps kids understand this. Another tip really important, if you use an ai tool like chat gpt, you should cite it as a source in your work. If that makes your student nervous, thats a pretty good sign that they know thats not the right way to use Artificial Intelligence, george. George good guidelines. Becky, thank you very much. Now pop news. Lara good morning, everybody. We are going to begin with queen bey retaining her throne. You like that, michael . Beyonce earned her spot on the country charts with cowboy charter. It made it to number one on the bill board country charts making history in the process. Beyonce is now the first black female to lead the country. Three songs from Cowboy Carter have made their way on to the top ten of the billboard 100. Texas hold em is number 2 up from 11. Her collab with miley cyrus came in at number six. For the First Time Since dolly parton released it, jolene has made it into the top ten. Beyonces version sitting at number 7 and climbing, by the way. Cowboy carter is streaming everywhere. Michael wow. Lara beyonce does it again, guys. The countdown is on, everybody, until taylor swift releases the tortured Poets Department. Yesterday swift decided to stir up some excitement. The singer shared what appears to be some lyrics from the new album. There it is on the typewriter. They go, crowd goes wild at her finger tips, pass moon shine full eclipse. Good timing, huh . Taylor. The woman has the magic touch. Fans think that is a line from one of the 16 tracks, or four bonus songs set to be featured on the album. The tortured Poets Department drops april 19th. Then taylor jets to europe for the next leg of her eras tour king it off with four nights in paris. No word whether or not shell add any of those new songs to the set list. My guess is yes. Michael yes. Lara hey, we have no doubt that you will be happy to hear gwen stefani and her band are reuniting. Gwen is on the cover of nylon magazine, the first print issue in seven years. Inside the magazine she shares that she and the band will perform together for the first time in ten years hitting the stage at coachella. Take a look. Im most excited for the people that are excited, to see the reaction of, like, people who are dying to be there. Just the fact that were going to be at coachella. I have never played at coachella before. I think it will be one of those things where well just get up and look at each other and start laughing going, what i cant wait. Lara i cant wait either. So many great songs. She is gorgeous, too. Wow, she looks great. Gwen said the band doesnt have any plans to tour or record anything new but she is personally working on some new things. In the mean time she says fans can expect to hear all the good ones. I mean, theyre all good. Just a girl. Its my life. Dont speak. Coachella kicks off this weekend. Also happens the weekend of april 20th. You can get nylons 25th anniversary celebration issue and read more from gwen when the magazine hits newsstands april 16th. Very music centric pop today. This also is a drop. Sorry, i love music. The boss is back and hes making sure fans of all ages are able to enjoy his performances. Just weeks after making his return, bruce brought his tour to San Francisco personally signed a note so that an 11yearold fan could explain why she might not make it to class. She posted this footage saying the family sitting right behind them had a sign for their daughter that said skipping school, sign my note. Bruce saw it. He came through before leaving the stage. Karen writing, to be in such close proximity to greatness was more than i expected. He knelt down in front of me to sign that lucky girls note. All i can say is i hope the teacher was equally enthralled. Rebecca a . Michael the teacher probably kept the note instead of giving it back. Lara Everybody Wins. Thats pop.

Coming up, how one woman Found Community as an army wife an sharing what military families go through. We belong we belong together we belong hulu on disney . Available with disney bundle. Plans starting at 9. 99 a month. George were back with a memoir about life as an army wife. Stephanie ramos sat down with author simone gorrindo. She joins us now. Good morning, stephanie. Good morning, george. The story starting with the story of a military wife struggling to survive in her new reality but gets support from other army wives after her husband felt the calling to serve. Simone had just landed her dream job as an editor in new york when her fiance andrew threw in a plot twist. After graduating from college he wanted to enlist in the army with a goal of serving in an elite operations unit. The difference between you and the army is the army. It felt like a physical blow almost. At the same time, i also really admire that he will go after what he wants like that. I decided to marry him and go along for the journey. Simone documenting that journey in her new memoir the wives which took them to a rural army base in columbus, georgia, where she met a community of fellow army wives that left an unforgettable imprint on her life. What was that adjustment like when you first got there . I was really thrown together with this one group. They became my whole social world. Didnt matter what your religion was, political affiliation. We were together. We were going to appointments. We were calling each other when we got bad news overseas. We were living the terrors of our lives and the mundane dailiness of our lives together. Simone quickly formed a bond with her neighbor rachel, who became one of her closest can confidantes. We were strangers in a strange land. That was Fertile Ground for open conversations. When i was pregnant, i spent so many nights at her house. The maps app on my phone started registering her house as my home. It was like having a sister. That sisterhood, something she leaned on while suffering from crippling anxiety. Do you think that civilians have an understanding of the anxiety that families of soldiers live with every day . I dont think so. Thats one reason it was so important for me to write this book and to include experiences like that. I think its important that people know what military families go through. What do you want americans to know about army wives . We are human beings from every walk of life. But we really all shared the core philosophy of survival. They were the toughest people i have ever met. They remain the toughest people i have ever met. She said she has a strong bond with these women. Her husband read multiple drafts of her book. She said it brought them closer together. He was able to understand her experience as an army wife more intimately, and she was able to learn more about his experiences in a nuanced way. The wives is out now. It is such a good read. George it looks like it. Stephanie, thank you very much. Ginger . Ginger today on gma3, demarco has an exclusive interview with lebron james mom gloria. Theyre together at Lebron James Museum in akron, ohio. Gloria talks about the family getting through tough times and her sons drive to succeed that is still one of the great parts of his game and life. Thats on gma3, 1 p. M. Eastern, noon central and pacific. Now a check closer to home. Michael now to a gma health ahrefrt. A new study on salt and diet. Diets high in sodium result in nearly 2 Million Deaths around the world each year. Our medical correspondent dr. Darien sutton joins us with more. The study tell us what we would expect, which is salt can harm our health. This is a meta analysis that involves a lot of different studies at once, looking at older populations with ages specifically who are at higher risk. It found that reducing sodium significantly reduced risk of Heart Disease, stroke and kidney disease. You have to make sure you watch your sodium to help reduce your risk and improve your quality of life when you get older. Michael how much salt are we talking about . Is this relevant for people here in the u. S. . Absolutely relevant. The amount of salt were talking about is reducing what the average american eats. The average american eats 3400 milligrams of salt. The recommended amount is about 2300 milligrams. When you talk to the american heart association, its even less than that. Just an example, this is 12 chips. How much sodium do you think is in there . Michael i love a good dorito. Thats a lot of sodium. Its a lot. Its about 200 milligrams. Michael in 12 chips . Who can just eat 12 . If you look at the actual bag, theres 15 servings in one of those regular bags. That equates to more than 3,000 milligrams of sodium. You have to make sure that youre mindful of your sodium. The majority comes from processed food. Michael im guilty. Guilty. What do you recommend for salt substitutes or tracking your sodium . Its just about flavor. Most of the time if you remove the sodium from our food, most people wonted recognize it especially if you add other substances. Paprika, ground pepper, onion powder, cinnamon, ginger, garlic. More than 97 dont know how much sodium they are having. One recommendation that i have is eat regular today. Categorize how much sodium youre having. At the end of the day figure out how to do better. Michael what about tracking . So tracking, number one, writing it down. Also making better choices. Heres some examples of high potassium foods. The reason why i care about that is because potassium can help blunt the effects of sodium in our body, helping us manage our Blood Pressure. Leafy greens, bananas, sweet potatoes. Add these product, have less processed food and be mindful of your sodium. Michael maybe ill have a few chips. How much is a few . Michael all 12. [ laughter ] great advice. You dont realize how much salt is in your diet. 2 Million People a year are passing away from that. Absolutely. Michael thank you so much for that, dr. Sutton.
