Most people age 14 and up should aim to keep sodium under 2,300 milligrams a day. Toddlers and children should consume even less.
The bulk of sodium sneaks in through highly processed foods, not the salt shaker. Cooking at home gives you more control.
Start with one small change: swap a highly processed food you eat often with whole, nutrient-dense foods. Think dairy with no added sugars, vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and protein foods (meat, fish, and legumes).
