Abstract: A dictionary lists nearly 6,000 brand names and basic foods with their sodium content. The guide is intended both for people who must limit their sodium/salt intake and those who want to from choice. Foods are listed alphabetically by brand name or by the name of the food. The singular form is used and listed individually. While sodium is an essential nutrient people may be consuming greater amounts than is healthy for them. Some foods high in sodium don't taste salty, or are not perceived as salty. The processed-food industry is working with the FDA on a voluntary basis to lower sodium content of food. Information on portions used, sources of data, food groups, abbreviations and symbols and equivalents are discussed. (kbc).
