Simply enter the amount of salt in grams, and get immediate results to help you manage your diet effectively.
Formula:
The sodium content in salt (NaCl) is approximately 39.34% by weight.
Formula: Sodium (mg) = Salt (g) × (Molar Mass of Na / Molar Mass of NaCl) × 1000
Simplified: Sodium (mg) = Salt (g) × 393.366
Where:
- Salt (g): The total weight of salt in grams.
- Sodium (mg): The calculated sodium content in milligrams.
