The sodium in salt plays a key role in several body functions. Sodium is a mineral that your body must have in order to function properly. The primary source of dietary sodium is sodium chloride, or salt, more than three-quarters of which comes from processed foods.
Sodium is readily available from various sourcesâfoods that contain sodium naturally, foods containing salt and other sodium-containing ingredients, and from salt added to foods during cooking and at the table. As a component of salt, sodiumâs most recognized role is to make foods more flavorful.Less well-known, yet important roles of sodium-containing ingredients include helping to preserve foods, improving the texture of foods, and ensuring the safety of some foods.his IFIC Review provides background on the use of sodium as a food ingredient and sodiumâs role in sustaining health. It also summarizes current knowledge on the effects of sodium and salt intake on the development and treatment of disease.
