Convert Salt tsps to Sodium mg easily
Salt (NaCl) is not excactly sodium (Na).
It is not right to use these terms as synonyms.
The FDA recommended limit of sodium is 2,300 mg per day (or even less - about 1500 mg while one is on low sodium diets).
This is much less than the weight of salt.
(5,750 mg per day or 3,750 mg for low sodium diet) and not so convenient to calculate.
Know how much sodium is in your salt - without a calculator:
1/4 tsp salt = 600 mg sodium
1/2 tsp salt = 1200 mg sodium
3/4 tsp salt = 1800 mg sodium
1 tsp salt = 2300 mg sodium -
Learn about veggies and iron
Veggies such as broccoli, bok choy, spinach, parsley and most leafy greens are naturally high in iron.
However, compared to other high-iron foods, like red meat, fish and poultry, the iron in plant foods is not absorbed as easily by the body. What can you do to increase the absorption of iron from these plant foods?
- Vitamin C increases the absorption - so try having a fresh tomato, lemon juice, or an orange together with your high iron food
- Avoid drinking too much coffee - caffeine can decrease the absorption of iron
- In addition to caffeine, the tannins found in tea can also reduce iron absorption
- If you are a vegetarian, try having iron-fortified breakfast cereals, legumes, and eggs

Not a really good source of calcium!
Cheese is a generally a good source of calcium (more than 10% daily value per serving) - but not this.
If you are looking for calcium - swap for something with higher calcium content.
By the way, you don't need high fat or calories to get high calcium.
Many "lite" versions of cheese provide 30% of daily calcium needs.
Choose cheeses that are a naturally good source of calcium.
If you're worried about fat and calories, pre-sliced cheese, cheese sticks or cheese squares
are a great way to make sure your portion is the right size.
The FDA defines a serving of cheese as 1 ounce (30 grams). -
