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.
The current guidelines suggest that people younger than 50 should consume less than 2,300 mg of sodium per day and that people over 50 should have less than 1,500 mg per day. The average American consumes between 2,645 and 4,945 mg of sodium a day. The new report looked at data from 25 different studies on health risks associated with sodium intake. Over 274,000 people were included in the analysis.
