Datos habituales

Datos habituales
Sodium is a mineral and electrolyte the body uses to keep fluid balance and to support normal nerve and muscle function; most sodium in the diet comes from salt added to packaged and prepared foods rather than from whole foods.
Ingesta baja
A dietary sodium shortfall is uncommon on a typical diet; low blood sodium is more often discussed in relation to certain medical conditions or very heavy, prolonged sweating.
Ingesta más alta
High sodium intake is commonly discussed in relation to fluid retention and, over the long term, effects on the heart and blood vessels; U.S. guidance commonly cites keeping intake below 2,300 mg a day for adults.
