I don't understand. AAA=>AAB but AAZ=>ABA. How do you decide which letters to increment? You said increment the second letters, so I take it you mean all but the first one? Shouldn't it be AAA=>ABB if you increment all but the first letter by one? â Raoul Duke Aug 25 '10 at 15:01
We're safe with sodium . But Alderman holds a very different view, contending that the amount of sodium Americans are getting each day isn't dangerous. Rather, he thinks the amount of sodium that should be considered too much is much higher: 5,000 mg. In addition, Alderman said there is a range of sodium intake that should be considered safe: from 2,500 mg to 5,000 mg. With a daily intake of lower than 2,500 mg of sodium, cardiovascular risk goes up, he argued.
The Institute of Medicine has established adequate intake levels for sodium that address the typical needs of a healthy population. The recommended adequate intake of sodium for adults up to age 50 is 1,500 milligrams daily. Adequate daily intake for older Americans is 1,300 milligrams from age 50 through 70 and 1,200 milligrams after age 70.
