Salt is a very common ingredient in many foods only if salt is so widespread that doctors today warn us about getting too much of salt.

B. Salt is a very common ingredient in many foods, and it is so widespread that doctors today warn us about getting too much of it.

Explanation:

The sentence framing of the whole sentence is such that it contains two independent clauses that are capable of standing on their own and making their own points.

The right construction to join the sentences 2 and 3 is option (B) where the conjunction "and" is used. This use of the conjunctive word makes the perfect sentence structuring and rhythm whereas the use of the words "finally", "as long as" and "only" did not have any meaningful connection in joining the two sentences.

Thus the correct answer is option B.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
