How much salt to use?

According to Andrew Huberman, the recommended amount of salt intake is generally between 8 to 12 grams per day. This aligns with a sodium intake of 3.2 to 4.8 grams, which is equivalent to about 1.5 to 2 teaspoons of salt daily 1.

It is advised to tailor salt intake to individual needs and health conditions, such as blood pressure levels. People with high blood pressure need to be cautious with their sodium consumption, while those with certain orthostatic disorders may need more salt to manage their symptoms 2. Always consult with a healthcare provider to determine the appropriate salt intake.
