Summary

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention conducted an observational cross-sectional study to obtain information about the amount of sodium consumed from various sources (including sodium from processed and restaurant foods, sodium inherent in foods, and salt added at the table and during cooking) and to examine variability across population subgroups. Data collection will include an observational component as well as a sub-study designed to refine the accuracy of estimates of total sodium intake and discretionary sodium intake.

Information was collected in three distinct geographic regions: 1) Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota, 2) Birmingham, Alabama, and 3) Palo Alto, California. Over a two-year period, a study center in each location recruited 150 participants (total N=450). Overall, an approximately equal number of adults ages 18-74 years by approximately 10-year age groups in each sex-race group, including whites, blacks, Hispanics, and Asians. A sub-study was conducted among a subgroup of 150 of these participants (50 per site). University of Minnesota serves as a study coordinating center.
