CS> That's 6,900mg sodium!

CS> Just so you know the recommended sodium is 1,800 a day...

Maybe i overdid it with the miso...

The yield is one gallon, which is 16 standard servings of soup.

6,900 mg / 16 = 431.25 mg Sodium per serving

I would normally eat 2 servings of soup in one sitting, so i would be
eating 862.5 mg Sodium, or roughly 50% of my recommended daily intake.
This is on par with or less than a brand-name can of soup.

Blood pressure is regulated via Sodium/Potassium balance.  Dark green
veggies are high in Potassium.  My current theory is that increased
consumption of veggies is the reason why there are so many people in
good health in parts of the world that have high-sodium cuisines.

What do you think?
