ABSTRACT:
A visual educational device for patients or individuals who want to reduce their dietary sodium intake. It is a series of small clear tubes or vials with different weights of common table salt that are equivalent to various weights of sodium in milligrams per day. These tubes correspond to some of the more typical sodium restricted diets that are in use today. The sealed salt tubes or vials are fixed in holders for viewing and comparing the various sodium restrictions with the average national sodium consumption per day. This device will allow the patient or individual to understand the relationship between the quantity of common table salt consumed per day and the equivalent amount of sodium consumed per day. For very close control of dietary sodium intake this device can be used in conjunction with processed food labeling for sodium content.
