6 grams per day

Every source I have ever looked at says 2400 mg or 2.4 g is the upper limit for daily salt intake.

What is the average cost for table salt in a year?

If a person was following the daily recommended allowance for sodium and he/she received all their sodium from table salt, they would take 4000 mg (4 grams) per day, which is equivalent to 1600 mg of sodium. So table salt, sodium chloride, requirement for 1 year would be 4 grams x 365 days = 1460 grams of salt. In the United States, salt is sold by the pound (which weighs 454 grams). So, in a year, a person would need 3.22 pounds of salt, which costs about 85 cents per pound, so the total in salt would be $2.73 US. Most of the sodium we eat is not from salt but is already in the food, so this answer could vary greatly depending on your diet.

What is the daily allowance for soy?

When you say daily allowance, you're implying that soy is a sort of essential nutrient that must be consumed every day for good health, such as vitamin C or potassium. While soy is a healthy, low-fat source of vegetarian protein, one can exist without soy, hence there is no "daily allowance" for soy anymore than there is for any other healthy food, such as broccoli or carrots. Soy can be counted as a serving of vegetables and can also serve as a source of protein.
