urinary sodium
excretion.26 During the follow - up of fifty - four months, the study found that
daily sodium intake below three grams and above seven grams significantly increased cardiovascular risk.
These values are derived from twenty - four - hour
urinary sodium
excretion measurements in studies involving over one hundred thousand participants.4 Cordain implies that sodium intake in «non-westernized people» is far lower than in the US, but in fact the average
