Estimated distribution of usual sodium intake (mg/day) reported at measured (solid line) and modelled full compliance to Health Canada’s voluntary Sodium Reduction Guidance (SRG) targets for processed food (dotted line) in (a) children 2 to 8 years, (b) females 9–18 years, (c) females ≥19 years, (d) males 9–18 years and (e) males ≥19 years from the 2015 Canadian Community Health Survey—Nutrition (n = 19,645). Results are generated using the NCI method and applying 100 Monte Carlo simulations. Results are weighted and adjusted for age, sex (children 2–8 years), misreporting, sequence of recall and weekend/weekday recall. Distributions are trimmed according to Statistics Canada vetting procedures.
