*

Mean daily Na intake was estimated by the 4 d diet record. Both crude and energy-adjusted intakes by the density method are shown.

Na excretion was measured by 24 h urine collection in 376 participants (189 men and 187 women).

The percentage indicates the proportion of Na intake from each intake source group in total Na intake.
