What does synthetic biology mean for architects and other designers? With this vision and base on the science set, we can hear how Andrew Hessel sees this working. This interview was conducted by the popular architecture website Arch Daily. In this video, Andrew speaks to a number of things, including these questions on the future of design:
The recommended amount of sodium that you should consume in a day depends on your age. Children ages 2 to 3 need 1,000 mg of sodium a day. That amount increases to 1,200 mg a day from ages 4 to 8 and 1,500 mg from 9 to 18. Adults need 2,300 mg of sodium a day, which is equal to about a teaspoon of salt. Your doctor might suggest that you consume less than the recommended amount of sodium if you have certain health risks.
Therefore, about 60 percent of the population should get no more than 1,500 milligrams of sodium per day to prevent cardiovascular disease. This includes diabetics, patients with kidney disease, African Americans and all adults over the age of 51.
