SHAKE is the WHO technical package adopted by countries to implement population-level dietary intervention against a major cardiovascular risk factor. In this package, the letter 'H' stands for:

• A Halt marketing of ultra-processed foods to children
• B Hydrate communities with safe drinking water
• C Harness the food industry to reduce salt in processed foods ✓
• D Health system integration of nutrition counselling

Explanation

SHAKE addresses salt reduction: S for Surveillance of salt intake, H for Harnessing the food industry to reformulate products, C for Adopting standards for labelling and marketing, K for Knowledge through education and communication, and E for Environment supporting healthy choices in settings. Option A describes a real component of other WHO nutrition packages but corresponds to 'C' territory, not 'H'.
