1500 mg a day: This is for a "low sodium diet". I have a comprehensive article on this here: http://www.Kidneydoctorbradenton.Org/2013/04/diet-for-patients-with-kidney-disease.Html.

Sodium in diet: Sodium is present in all foods naturally, we add more to add taste to our food. The naturally occurring sodium is enough for all of us if we eat right. But even if you add salt to ur diet yousshould avoid eating more than one teaspoon in a day.
