Hi everyone. I have high blood pressure. I'm really trying to limit my sodium intake so when I go grocery shopping I make sure I pay special attention to sodium on the nutrition facts. I want to ask how can you calculate sodium from something you eat? If I buy a box of poptarts for example and it says 30MG does each poptart have 30mgs of sodium or is that the amount for the whole box in all? Also is I buy a red baron pizza and it says 800mgs of sodium how do u calculate how much sodium in eating if I only eat 2 slices?

Look at the serving size. I'm guessing the pizza serving is one or two small slicessometimes weight of the slice or serving is the determing factor that is the listed sodium mg. Serving size or weight is supposedly the amount of salt.
