Studies have found that excessive sodium intake will increase the risks of hypertension, stroke and cardiovascular diseases. In addition, it is also related to the high incidence of osteoporosis, kidney stones, gastric cancer and other diseases.
The 2010 edition of the U.S. Dietary Guidelines recommends that the average daily intake of sodium should not exceed 1,500 milligrams, and sodium is the main component of salt. Such a large amount of sodium, corresponding to salt, should not exceed 3.8 grams, which is equivalent to a small beer bottle cap and a little less.
The measurable tools we use in our daily life can generally use spoons or tea spoons, which are filled with fine salt and have a mass of about 5-8g.
Some foods, even if eaten, do not taste salty, but actually contain high sodium. Eating more of these foods is actually equivalent to excessive intake of [salt]. Dr. Clove will give you a detailed count:
