The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

we seem to have a low point of morbidity mortality of this 5 grams of sodium intake per day which also has some justification within the ketogenic diet research and has been part of that that approach for a hundred years and then we see a really clear case for consumption of higher than 5 grams per day double or triple that within active populations and everybody should be active so you know anywhere in that like 5 to 15 grams per day range we see people operate quite well
so it's not three to five grams of salt it's three to five grams of sodium and you're gonna need to weigh that out or like look at that to see how much you're getting I think if unless you are physically like restricting salt most people probably get that because our bodies kind of crave that when we have access to it I mean it's just if you're salting your steak or your eggs to taste I think most of us probably are getting something reasonable
three to five thousand milligrams of sodium with two to three liters of water is typically on average what most people want to aim for and that three to five milligram the three to five grams of sodium means six to ten grams of salt yeah exactly
