Abstract in brief

The EFSA panel reviewed evidence on sodium intake and its effects on health, especially cardiovascular health and bone strength, but found the data insufficient to determine exact individual or population requirements.
They concluded that a daily sodium intake of 20 grams is considered safe, likely to reduce cardiovascular disease risk in adults, and helps maintain sodium balance, including for pregnant and breastfeeding women.
Recommended sodium intake levels for children are calculated based on adult values with adjustments for age and energy needs, ranging from 0.2 grams for infants to 1.7 grams for children aged 7–10 years.
