Low Sodium

Low Sodium Shopping at Whole Foods Market

Sodium is widely present in processed foods, and seasoning food with salt at the table is a very popular practice. Yet dietary intake of sodium is thought to contribute to a range of health problems, and many have been advised by their physicians to adopt a low sodium diet.

According to the FDA, a low sodium food contains 140 mg or less of sodium. Low sodium diets contain fewer sodium containing foods than the typical diet. Most low sodium diets limit sodium intake from 500 mg to 1500 mg daily. Individuals watching their sodium intake should also monitor their intake of fat, saturated fat and cholesterol - always check the Nutrition Facts panel on products you purchase.
