My soup label says 380 grams of sodium - how many teaspoons of salt would that equal?
You probably mean 380 MILLIgrams (mg) of sodium. One teaspoon of salt contains 2000 mg of sodium, so 380 mg of sodium would be about 1/5 a teaspoon of salt. 380 mg of sodium is relatively low for canned soup (which can be extremely high in salt). One thing to watch out for: The nutritional label lists sodium per serving. However, typical cans contain two servings (also listed on the nutritional label). So, if you eat the entire can, you would actually get TWO servings of sodium (in your case, 760 mg, which is over 30% of the US Recommended Daily Allowance, and almost 50% of more scientificially based limits, such as the UK's Recommended Nutritional Intake). People with high blood pressure, Heart disease, stroke, kidney disease or a family history of these should follow the more stringent limit.
