Sneaky Sodium: Empowering Consumers with Sodium Warnings on Restaurant Meals
Wednesday, May 9, 2018 2:00:00 PM EDT - 3:00:00 PM EDT
The restaurant environment is filled with high sodium foods. Giving consumers information that
enables them to choose lower-sodium options can help reduce the number of Americans living with
hypertension and the increased risk of heart disease and stroke they face. Since 2016, the
New York City Board of Health has required sodium warnings next to menu items containing the
recommended daily sodium limit (2,300 milligrams). Recently, similar legislation was introduced
by the Philadelphia City Council. Join us to learn more about the importance of sodium warnings
and current research about their effectiveness. You’ll also walk away with the tools you need to
introduce sodium warnings in your community.
