That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Healthy Canadian adults should aim for 1500 mg per day of sodium without going over 2300 mg per day of sodium. This range is recommended to maintain a healthy balance and prevent health issues related to excessive sodium intake. Consuming too much sodium can lead to high blood pressure and an increased risk of heart disease, while consuming too little can lead to electrolyte imbalances and other health complications. Therefore, it is important for individuals to be mindful of their sodium intake and stay within the recommended range.
