Abstract

In 2010, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommended that the Food and Drug Administration modify the generally recognized as safe status of sodium by setting gradually decreasing limits on sodium amounts allowed in processed and prepared foods. Establishing limits on sodium uses would lead to a decrease in sodium intake, which, on average, far exceeds dietary recommendations. This article discusses the historical and regulatory context surrounding the IOM's recommendation, analyzes its potential, offers various strategies for implementing it, and concludes that the IOM's recommendation is likely the best tool currently available to achieve widespread sodium reductions in the food supply.

实施美国食品供应中减少钠的IOM建议:考虑和方法。

2010年，医学研究所(IOM)建议食品和药物管理局通过逐步降低加工食品和预制食品中允许的钠含量限制来修改钠的普遍安全状态。限制钠的使用将导致钠摄入量的减少，平均而言，钠摄入量远远超过饮食建议。本文讨论了围绕IOM建议的历史和监管背景，分析了其潜力，提供了实施它的各种策略，并得出结论，IOM的建议可能是目前可获得的实现食品供应中广泛减少钠的最佳工具。
