Note: there are some variations by source.
- Those with high blood pressure (or risk factors, family history, sensitivity, etc.): 1,200 - 1,500mg per day.
1,200mg sodium = 1/2 teaspoon salt (yes, the little spoon; AHA)
1,500mg sodium = 3/4 teaspoon salt (still the little spoon; CSU)
- The maximum recommended per day: 2,300mg.
2,300mg sodium = 1 teaspoon salt (yes, the little spoon; AHA)
(The AHA thinks this is too much, even for healthy people.)
