About sodium limits

The FDA recommends no more than 2,300mg of sodium per day for adults. The American Heart Association sets a more stringent target of 1,500mg for optimal heart health — particularly for people with high blood pressure.

The average American consumes over 3,400mg/day — nearly 50% above the FDA limit. Processed foods, fast food, and condiments account for the majority.
