Salt Nutrition Facts

Salt is a seasoning normally used in small amounts, so the quantity added matters more than its dry-weight concentration. It provides protein. Keep it tightly closed and dry, away from steam, direct sunlight, and strong odors.

Interesting fact

One Teaspoon Is The Cap

The Nutrition Facts Daily Value for sodium is less than 2,300 mg a day — about one teaspoon of table salt in total. FDA also notes that over 70% of the sodium Americans eat is already in packaged and prepared food before the shaker is touched.
