I don't understand. AAA=>AAB but AAZ=>ABA. How do you decide which letters to increment? You said increment the second letters, so I take it you mean all but the first one? Shouldn't it be AAA=>ABB if you increment all but the first letter by one? â Raoul Duke Aug 25 '10 at 15:01
We're safe with sodium . But Alderman holds a very different view, contending that the amount of sodium Americans are getting each day isn't dangerous. Rather, he thinks the amount of sodium that should be considered too much is much higher: 5,000 mg. In addition, Alderman said there is a range of sodium intake that should be considered safe: from 2,500 mg to 5,000 mg. With a daily intake of lower than 2,500 mg of sodium, cardiovascular risk goes up, he argued.
Major organizations range in their recommendations, from 1,500 mg to 2,300 mg a day. For example, the World Health Organization recommends keeping sodium intake under 2,000 mg a day, while the Dietary Guidelines for Americans draw the line at 2,300 mg a day for adults who are under age 51, do not have high blood pressure, diabetes or chronic kidney disease and are not African American.
