Sea Salt has how many mg of sodium per serving?

0

Salt doesn’t really have a “serving”; it’s just there in the food you eat. The USRDA recommends keeping it to 2,400 milligrams, which would be about a teaspoon a day if there wasn’t already sodium in the food you eat (which there usually is). In terms of sodium content, sea salt is identical to ordinary table salt, at least by weight. By volume, many sea salts have bigger, chunkier crystals than ordinary table salt, so they take up more room and there’s less salt per teaspoon. Amounts vary; some are just the same, and others may have half as much. But remember that it’s a function of the shape, not the kind of salt; sea salt is essentially the same stuff as regular salt except for a few trace minerals.
