Where’s All That Sodium Hiding?
Most dietary sodium comes from salt. But if you think hiding the salt shaker is going to make a big difference, think again.
According to a 1991 study published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, only about 10 percent of sodium intake comes from table salt and at-home cooking.
At least 77 percent of the dietary sodium intake in the United States comes from restaurant meals and processed foods. These are the areas you may want to target, not the salt shaken on your veggies at the dinner table.
