In this final article, I will describe the types of salt I recommend, and how much salt is ideal for most people. How much, and what kind of salt to include in the diet. According to research, there exists a range of sodium intake that likely confers the best health outcomes for most people. As I explained in part 3, findings from a 2011 study demonstrate the lowest risk of death for sodium excretion between 4000 and 5990 milligrams per day.
This increases the volume of your blood and the pressure in your blood vessels. Most healthy people should limit their sodium intake to 2,300 milligrams (mg) or less per day. If you have high blood pressure, diabetes, or chronic kidney disease, you should eat no more than 1,500 mg of sodium per day. You should also limit your sodium intake to 1,500 mg daily if youâre African-American or over 50 years old.
